Create a Super 8mm effect with Film Wash - After Effects Tutorial

[agolden847]

Great tutorial actually, love this kind of effect! =)

could you please help me find the BBC film damage ?

i dont have it in my plug ins :S

[Danielrhr]

I don't find some options you're using in this version. I'm using After Effects CS4 for Mac and, for example, I don't see the option "Expression Opacity" for creating flicker :(

sick!

Always start with an example of the final product. I don't to watch the whole thing when it is not what I want.

@BTinHD Good point.  Thanks for the comment.

Do you know of any good 8mm film look plug-ins for Sony Vegas!?

I recently purchased this package but for Apple Color. Is there a tutorial for that?

[o0curiousturtle0o]

@mikekarnell The compositing possibilities are more limited with Color than with AE! Here's the basic idea:

i) Use one of the Film Wash settings as a great starting point. You can combine these if you are on Color V1.5 or above.

ii) You'll have to create a User Shape to mimic the frame of the Super8 vignette.

iii) Use this shape as a vignette and make it black.

iv) There is a way to do scratches in the ColorFX room. It's detailed on our Creative Color Grading training DVD

Great tutorial! Would you be able to remake and upload the Super 8 border psd?

[o0curiousturtle0o]

what is the plug in u use...'bbc film damage' where can i get it? i hope for free. or any other plug in that does the same effect.thanks

[o0curiousturtle0o]

Weird. My reply didn't show up. I'll try again.

I used Boris Continuum set of plug-ins for the Film Damage. Not free, I'm afraid.

There's a film damage set of extras in the new Film Wash Vol. 3, which work really nicely. Check out my other vids for details on that. Again, not free - but definitely not expensive :o)

I tried to find some free alternative for you, but the closest I got was some real footage from istockvideo.

Hope you have some luck elsewhere (or buy the Film Wash set!)

I know Premiere Pro fairly well but I have no idea how to use after effects.
