Is there any mFlare alternative for Motion?
At $99
is not what you can call cheep. I was playing with the demo version and it is a great plug-in but I think is to expensive at this point. So, is there any alternative?

Hello Dorin. From what I understand is that it is a very powerful tool allowing to make different types of Flares. Another alternative is to make your own in Motion:

..... hobbyist speaking here:
From FXPeffects.com
www.fcpeffects.com/collections/entire-ca...ts/lens-flare-plugin
39$ plus/minus frequently discounts, sales, offers, etc. Actually -40% ....
maybe too colorful for the pro, too inyaface, but tons of adjustments in the Inspector for fine tuning. And on-screen controls, for amateurs like me…
No participation, just a satisfied customer!

You know what we did in the olden days before there was Knoll's brilliant flare creation system for ye olde After Effects? Shot our own! Each focal length setting and f-stop combination will have a different effect. Each location in the field of view will have a different effect. Just be sure your lens is super clean. Best stuff we shot was in a dark studio with an ellipsoidal studio light. That's the instrument that has an ellipsoidal reflector, internal shutters, and a plank-convex lens on the front. It is a point-source light that will create tons of fabulous flares. You can move the camera or move the lighting instrument.
