Hi Jonathan; check out S_DigitalDamage in the Stylize category. Here’s a short tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDNChJOV9wI
Enjoy!— Gary

Hi David; the same Sapphire license should work on both of those apps as long as they’re on the same machine. You can get a 3-month subscription for $149, 1 year for $499, or a permanent license for $1699 (which includes a year of upgrade and support services and other stuff, check our website for details).

Chroma arcs will rotate around just like other elements, when the hotspot moves. The Animation options in the Flare Designer control how the element reacts as the hotspot moves farther from the center. Normally arc elements grow and brighten as the hotspot gets farther away from the center, but you can control that as you like. The “Response” sliders control how the global triggers (normally near the frame edge) affect the brightness and size; that’s how you can get flashes as it goes past the edge.
Hope that’s helpful!

Occlusion in Avid is an Input Selector (within LensFlare); the input selectors are up near the top of the effect editor. Hope that helps!

On Avid, you do need to have a matte to get occlusion. Pull a key (hi-con, black & white) for your trees. Put that on V1, and put the video on V2. Apply the effect to the video on V2, then select “1 layer below” for the Occlusion layer. Then you can tweak the occlusion settings (near the bottom of the effect editor) to get the look you want.

Hi Chris; please install 8.1 from our site, it should fix the missing Occlusion layer param in LensFlare in 3D mode. (This is only a problem in AE, which supports 3d – Avid doesn’t have that option.) You should get 8.1 anyway, it has lots of new goodies especially in Builder. Check the changelog for details.
Regarding “layering” in Avid, not sure what you want to do. If you want to apply multiple effects to a clip, just Alt-drag (Option on Mac) the effect on; that’ll nest it.

Hi Oma Be; you probably ended up with an extra copy of the plug-ins somehow, maybe in the Premiere directory. Just search your hard drive for S_*.aex and delete all of them and you should be OK.

Hi Prathvish; we are looking into this issue now with the Resolve folks. Only seems to be an issue on the Linux version.

Look at the model (look) you are trying to emulate. What sets it apart from the digital source footage? What are you going to have to put in or take out? Is there a Sapphire plug-in for it? And why not?
Yes, try Sapphire S_FilmEffect. It won’t get you 100% of the way to the look you want right out of the box, but I bet you can find a preset that looks close and go from there.
