    Post How do I get this effect?

    I was watching CKY3K (skateboarding video from a few of the MTV Jackass crew) and there is an effect that I am unable to duplicate with Adobe premier 6 and After Effects 5.5.

    Basically, there is the equivalent of a diffuse glow (from photoshop). I know it's not a camera effect a as some of this is old footage from a previous video that was altered. I have tried the glow effect in AE but can not duplicate the quality of the effect (well, it doesn't even come close).

    Anyway, if any of you (scuba - you still here?) know how to do this let me know.

    Here is a link to a clip of the vid showing what I am talking about.

    ILTU I would pm or email scuba - he is no longer in a tech environment, he pops in now and again, but not regularly I am afraid
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    Have you tried diffusing your own extra glow over the section - so just a blank 'whiteish' shot with increasing gamma...I dunno how well I'm describing that, I can see the clip but the image is shonky! so I'm not certain what effect I can see?

    Overlay a semi transparent fog? That what you mean? Might be able to do that, dunno. As for upping the gamma or putting on a glow - I've tried it. The glow is grainy and the gamma ups the light on everything, not just the bright stuff. There is also a "fog" over the foreground objects that the diffuse glow does the other effects do not. Thing is that the diffuse glow is not an effect outside of photoshop (so far as I can see).

    What about shooting the scene with a bluescreen behind it, then adding the glow effects?

    My reasons for putting the effect on is that I love the diffuse glow effect. There is nothing like it and it adds that certain something that I like.

    Besides, I don't have a studio of any sort to film in.
