LG_LenseGlow is a double mode glow tool for Nuke very much motivated by the look of the glow of the movie Minions & Monsters!
Features:
- Anamorphic / Physical mode: A more physical glow where you can plug in a custom kernel to shape the glow however you want.
- Source: the source is it's own input so you can have full control over your keying/source, a much more physical way to glow your shots would be to directly plugin the specular passe as Source...
- Exponential mode: A classic exponential glow with factor and falloff sliders to adjust the shape.
- Light conservation: Both modes have the light-conservation option.
- Stackable: Easily stack multiple nodes to create combined effects, like using a horizontal and vertical glow together.
Big thanks to Antoine Valero for handing me one of his shots!!
