Hi Folks,

I am trying to take some nice stock video and make it slightly blurred but still sharp or at least a soft slight foggy effect, also like a beautify effect you can get for photoshop.

Does anyone know of a third party effects pack that has a bunch of such effects to really tweak the footage and make it pop.

Happy to pay for such effects as I just want to give the video a film like high quality beautify makeover.

Thanks in advance

Try the fx color preset Dreamy and the color LUTS Color Pop 01 - 12, Color Tone 01 - 12. Amount of correction is adjustable from 0 to 100%.

More bad news for PD20/365 users. I was going to suggest that Matt use the free NewBlue Effects Giveaways I posted last year. They show up for use in PD17 and PD Essentials and can be used in both. After getting the subscription, they no longer show up in the PD365 but still show up and are usable in PD17.

I just went through this with the Boris fx missing with CS.

Okl brilliant tomas thanks very much, I saw a video showing the NewBlue effects which I had also and went into PD last night to use the NewBlue and unable to find them, so yes that isn't fair for a start, maybe PD dont have a current agreement or something with them.

ANyway ill try your suggestion tomas thank you
