How to achieve psychedelic rock video effects

I'm trying to achieve effects using After Effects (or premiere) for a psychedelic rock video of a live band performing on stage.
I remember in the old days I had effects that were built into the camera - one in particular where the camera would zoom in and out and leave colored trace outlines of the edges.
Does anyone have any tips, resources or tutorials for creating pschedelic rock video effects in After Effects?

That stuff was shot in the studio, and it was video feedback. If you're talking about the gloopy-looking colored & animated backgrounds that showed up behind a band, that was done with colored water, colored oil and a couple of clear-glass plates mooshed around.
"Gloopy" and "mooshed" are both highly-technical terms.

Particle effect -how to achieve this kind of effect exactly

Hello please help me to achieve this type of flickering particle effect. how to achieve this in After effect which is shown at 0.8 sec to 0.11 in the attached link video. http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-video-2682258-hearts.php

I can't give you the exact settings but you could use Trapcode Particular with a custom particle or CC Particle world. Just turn gravity to 0 and set up a custom particle.
Your particle layer will be behind the spinning hearts layer. This should get you going in the right direction.

How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

or... you can command click to select all the clips you want to apply the effect to, then double click the effect in the Effects browser. (PS - you can't simply drag and drop an effect on multiple clip selections, the effect will only be applied to the clip you drop it on -- but double clicking the effect will apply it to all selected clips at once.)

How do you preview the video effects?

Hi,
I am just wondering how to preview the video effects in Premiere Pro without having to add them to the timeline to view them. Anyone have any idea?
Thanks in advance.
Kerri

Kerri,
Much of where a Transition is positioned will depend on your Clips, themselves. Here's another topic for your "Autumn Reading List" - Handles.
The understanding of these will go a very long way to understanding the placement and operation of Transitions.
Here's a short bit on Handles, but the manual (if they still have those) and the Help files will give you a lot more info.
Initially, Handles are a bit of an abstract concept, but once you get it, you'll fully understand some of the behavior of Transitions. Well worth reading.
Good luck,
Hunt

How can i create this videos effect ?

Hello, i am new here, and i have a project in my hand. I have to create a slideshow presentation on certain subject. I have completed the slideshow using a tool called,PhotoStage Slideshow Producer, with a bunch of 60 images. Now i want to add a small video effect in the beginning of the slideshow to make it look more professional. Here is the download link for the video. http://www.mediafire.com/download/i5az6a7rjp3lbkn/Video.rar This video is farely advanced for my liking, but you got the general message. I want something really simple and i want to add it in between different images for some effect. I may be asking in the wrong forum, again. Can Adobe’s Premiere Pro do it , or is there some other simple program that can make these kind of effect. Thank you.

Might be able to create it with Filter > Render > Clouds with your foreground and background colors set to the lighter and darker versions of your selected color. Then you might need to use Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur to smooth things out

How to achieve the distort motion effect ala Final Cut Pro in Premiere CS4?

Newbie here.
I have just recently started with video editing. In Final Cut Pro I have the option to distort a still image in the motion/effects panel. In premiere cs4 I only find the option to scale it up/down without the option to individually distort the four corners. Does anyone know how this can be done in premiere cs4?
The effect i am going for is the same as in Apples presentation of iPad. http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/specialevent0110/
I have an presentation wich I need to insert all the slides from the powerpoint presentation in the video.
Any help would be appreciated. ( I have searched around for an solution, but without results)
Regards T

Here is a resource, that deserves a bookmark, the PrPro-Wiki. Plenty of great FAQ articles and tutorials.
I see the "Distort" part of the Effect in FCP, but the "Motion" aspect was throwing me. I kept thinking Posterize Time, and that is anything but what you were looking for. That's why I was going to head to Google for the FCP Help files, or similar.
Good luck,

Day 1 - How do I pre-sample video effects V7

I thought I could just drag effects to time line and sample, but I guess it's not that logical.
Thanks
I'll just say, while loading discs last night, it didn't go totally flawless getting stuck on disk3.
Is there a process to run that will verify the software is fully 100%?
I'm running 10.6.8 on the MacBookPro.
If this is flawed, I'll have to load it on the MacPro instead. He's 10.6.8 also.

Now to figure out how to get Motion adjustments to see in real time what your doing in the other canvas screen.
If thats an option.
Selecting video tab to see end results behind adjustment panel seems a poor way to do it after the fact.
Place the clip on the Timeline. Position the playhead over it and double click the clip to send it to the Viewer.
Open the Viewer's Motion tab and make adjustments. The clip in the Canvas/Timeline will change accordingly.

How to achieve the annoying orange effect?

Is there a filter or name for this technique?
Can you direct me to a tutorial for this technique by daneboe of youtube?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjdBCeUdAmI
I appreciate any help. I've spent several hours looking but haven't been using the right keywords.

Add your face layer to the timeline, draw a mask with the pen or circle tools. Adjust the vertex postions with the move tool. Hit MM (two times M in short succession) to reveal the mask properties. if the shape needs to beanimated over time, enable the stopwatch on the mask shape property. Adjust the featheruing as needed. Rinse repeat for all elements you need. Then place the fruit below and move your elements in position as needed. To belnd in the skin tones, use Effects --> Color Correction --> Hue Saturation and shift the red tones around....

Using video effects in quicktime pro

how can i access the video effects in quicktime pro every time i try and use the filters i cant apply them to the movie can any one help ie fade dissolve etc any threaaaaaaad would help can not find anything in the manuals have been looking for hours ??????????????

Only looking for hours?
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/RedneckTexasXmas/index.html
A "movie" made from still images and some sound tracks. All made using QuickTime Pro.
The "transitions" were made by taking the still images and adding them "scaled" to a ten second audio track. The audio was deleted so then I had about 50 little ten second videos. Two of these videos were merged into one file using:
http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/samplemakeeffectmovie/index.html
Thousands of combinations can be created.
They were all added over another QT track (map of Texas) and their position and transparency levels and layers were adjusted. Last I copied all of this file and added it "scaled" to my two sound tracks.
The "filters" can be accessed via the Export "Movie to QuickTIme Movie" but they are applied to the entire file at export. If you wish to use more than one filter you should first create separate files from your source project.
The end result (a 4 MB file) would require over 300 MB's if done in an application like iMovie. The transitions add nearly nothing to the total file size when you do them using QuickTIme Pro.

How can I create a video with effects using my ipad?

How can I create a video with effects (sepia, B&W, Negative, oval or any other shape borders) using my ipad? I would Like to keep a higher res and also be able to shrink it down to email or send in a MMS. Or should I just upload it to my PC and mess with it there? Some of the apps I have are very easy to use compared to the learning curve needed for video editing software.
Thanks

Thats the Problem . . . how many apps do I have to try until I find the one I want? I noticed a few will render the video thus losing its original size. When I went to edit it more in iMovie the video was smaller--not good. And what software do you suggest, Templeton, for the PC? I love the apps because they are easy. I dont have hours to mess around on a software to figure out if its something I want. Im looking for simplicity. Maybe Ill get more into it later. I just want to record simple video of my playing the guitar for self analysis and create a short video for family and friends.
Apps:
iMovie
CinemaFXV
VideoFix
Cartoonatic
Video illusion
VidEditor
Software:
Windows Movie maker (wont accept .mov files)
After Effects (Too little time, so much to learn)
Wondershare (Very easy but little choices)
VideoPad (Again. Few choices)

How to save video effects for title templates?

I just started playing with Premiere Pro CS4.
I have a beginners question, hope you don't mind:
In my video I use a third-low title to tell the name of songs played. I put them in a bin, basically just copy the first one and change the names in the copies. But when I add them to the timeline I noticed it looks much more professional to add a video-effect where opacity goes from 0 to 100% in a second, and then the other way at the end.
My problem is that I seem to have to do this over and over again, for each title. Is there a simple way to make one title-template, put it on the timeline, add video-effects, and then save that and make copies just changing the text in time-line? That would save me a lot of work, and the video-effects would be consistent in looks and timing.
Thanks for any hints or tips for this newbie.

How to achieve this specific drop shadow effect?

Dear all,
Does anybody know how to achieve this specific drop shadow effect in InDesign: a step by step instruction, a plugin, etc?
Regards,
Kasyan

Kasyan,
I generally just use the basic feather. I draw the object with a few clicks of the pen, fill with whatever color, set the tint if desired, then use settings more or less as below.

How to achieve this Effect?

Hey everyone i was wondering if you guys had any idea how to achieve this effect in flash.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QftcJtvLr8g

While you could probably do this in Flash, it is much more simply done using AfterEffects. There's a splendid text tool that can be tortured into effects like this. Have a look at the podcasts from Creative Cow on AfterEffects for some interesting examples.
