This morning I was prepping for the Advanced AE class I am teaching in Orlando tomorrow.
Part of the class is looking at commonly used effects, and I was setting up some film light leak transition projects. (get them here)
I then was digging through Ae stuff I had, and found John Dickinson’s “Basic Fractal Loop”Tutorial“. (he has great tips and products at http://www.motionworks.com.au/.)
I had a thought and was curious if I could make a film flash effect using fractal noise in a composite mode like add or screen?
So if you don’t have a film flash at your disposal, or you just like “making your own”, this should work.
I used CC Toner to provide the color, and key framed the Fractal Noise settings.
I have saved the settings as an Animation Preset that you can apply to a solid.
So I tried a version w fractal noise .
and one w Film_Burn_1080_1
