Plug in Filters...effects

Plug in Filters...effects

2002-09-07 by lyonscox

To all

I don't have much, if any experience with plug ins.
Was working on an image last night that it would be nice to give it a 
lot of scratches on the negative look...PS's "Dust&Scatches" is not 
the effect I'm looking for...more the film run through projector with 
sand in it. 

Recommendations on plug in packages?
Places to acquire them from?
Recommended $ to not exceed?

Will start looking around myself and wanted to ask here as well.

Thanks in advance,
Cleavis

You could experiment with using noise or film grain filters, then running a
motion blur on them.  That can get you a scratched looked, but I don't know
if that's exactly what you're looking for.  Also, you could ask on the

If you want scratches on the negative, take an unexposed, 
processed piece of film and scratch it the way you want.  Scan it 
and add it to your image as a layer that you can blend however 
you want.

Actually, there are filter sets that do exactly what you want...


Ad the parent plug-in is well worth  the few bucks...
