This is a collection of 12 preset lens flare scenes. The scenes must be rendered in GLSL mode or applied to the Video Sequence Editor as a scene in OpenGL textured preview mode and set in Add blend mode to your footage. The VSE project must be rendered with the OpenGL render buttons (these will not work in the Blender Internal Render Engine or Cycles). The flare may be keyframe animated or parented/constraint to a tracked point (empty). Duplicate present scene and import to the VSE as an additional layer to apply multiple flares.
Zip file includes additional flare elements for use in the blend file. All elements are original and fabricated by the author.
Have fun with this non-traditional blend file! Use freely, alter, adjust and share with others.
Good job. This is going to be very useful. Can you please make one that can be added using the compositor.
No one is saying that it can't be added with the compositor. You could just render out the flare and bring the frames/movie file into the compositor, or any other compositor you want to use.
WOW !!! Great Stuff !!! Thanks for sharing your inspired work.
Brilliant. Amazing. Remarkable. I love your work, and what your are doing with it. I look forward to more tutorials and more awesome assets. Whether i'm required to or not, i for one will reference the author whenever i use these assets- which hopefully will be a lot. Keep up the awesome work
I am new at this hobby yet guys like you have made it possible for noobs like us to venture in this trade. How could I have continued with my diligent tutor Steve of CG tutorials on the "Creating a beautiful fallroad blender tutorial," without your effort. Bravo!
all i can say is are you f'n kiddin me . i blinked and got a render. incredible. thanks for the flare packs , great work
Thanks! I am a big fan of your work. Thanks for the generous share!
Hi Carl did you make the flare images or did you get them off of CG Textures?
Great work. We have been waiting for something like this for a long time
