I dont believe there is an AfterEfx equivelant! Just cheap replications. Hey Dean, Have you ever heard of the Experimental Television Center in Owego, NY? Im heading there in April and am so thrilled to be using some of the equipment that is relative to the era of technology that most of your work(that ive seen) took place in.

Hi FantasyNow - Wow, good to hear that ETC still exists. Please do post video of anything you create there. And, if you've only ever used digital tech, enjoy using patch bays to manipulate images :-)

Anyone know is there any program or After Effects plug-in that makes that effects?

[dean358]

This was created in two separate effects passes: An old porno tape was processed using a Serge modular music synthesizer to sequence the sounds and control the colorization of a Hern video synthesizer (both analog). The sounds are also inserted into the video, which are the stripes you see, changing with frequency. The tape from the first pass was used to seed an analog feedback loop around a Quantel 5000 digital effects device. Sorry, I have no clue what an AfterEfx plug-in equivalent is :-)
