Transfer/Blend Modes as a Resolve Feature

[Denver Riddle]

You can create all kinds of different creative looks with blend modes, plus solve some technical problems. Photoshop artists have been using them for a long time to create different looks. Blending modes effectively change the arithmetic of how images are processed. As already pointed out Assimilate Scratch offers blending modes as well as Nucoda Film Master.

Using a blur with a curve and a screen blend will get you some interesting glowing highlights. Combine that with windows, gain control, color washes, etc. for any number of combinations and that’s just one example. It’s all about your imagination and how much time you have to experiment.

You could just use a luma key to get glows, but blending modes provide you with more options and different looks.

I use blending modes all the time in Avid DS- on one source shot.

I create homemade Bleach looks with a regular version, a black and white version and a color version of a single shot, all blending together for a beautiful bleach look that you have almost total control over.
