  • Vignette in Adobe Premiere – troubleshooting

    Posted by Eric Pokorny on November 30, 2012 at 10:47 pm

    Hello,
    I have read and watched a ton of vignette tutorials but none that I can find address the problem I am having.

    In summary,
    I am keying out a subject, placing a color matte behind them and adding a vignette via the “black video” plus circle, invert,feather etc…. or a title with radial gradient, multiply etc…
    (both have the same result) see posted picture.

    The vignette “rings” out and is very distinct and has a “loony tunes” ring effect. I have tried blurs and opacity and tons of things to make this go away. Am I missing something?
    I am wondering if it is the layer interacting with the color matte.

    I’m looking for something soft and smooth – i can get the look using MB looks but i know there is a way to do it natively in premiere.

    Thanks for your help!

    Maybe try this: https://www.creativeimpatience.com/vignette/

    Also, is this in your final output? If so, what codec? gradients and banding are very common problems because video (and video hardware/software vendors) has a hard time with subtle changes. There could be a lot of contributing factors.

    Or try this, no plugin, just very quick to apply. No banding.
    Make settings into preset afterwards.

    Thanks both of you..
    Dennis – this was the final render. It does appear this way in both premiere and the output. Tried .mov, .wmv. h264… used different players like vlc and wmv and qt but all have same result.

    I am going to try the method in the video clip. The only thing different in that then what I am doing is the transparent video rather than black video.

    I’ll let you know what happens.
    Thanks again.
