after dl, unzip, put into Movies/Motion Templates/Effects

another left-over from son’s vacation movie:
fakeHDR does what it says, it mimics the fancy tone-mapping look - for sure, not real, a single frame can not create a high-dynamic-range picture.





So, for some content it works better, for other less… if you like this (over)saturated look anyhow.
btw: This effect is broadcast safe...-

I made it for my hasty son, so no tons of options, just a single slider; max is a bit overdone, so use respondsible.

Funny side-effect, see pic#5: hazy pics look a bit de-hazed… no idea, how I did that. :)

skin-tones get killed = orange… you should try to fix that with some color-correction
The screen-shots look more noisy than in moving-pictures… to my excuse, some are done with a 50€ action-cam….



==edit==
ahh, forgot to mention: not my genius, I adopted the well-known technique (for stills) to duplicate the pic, desaturate and invert it and finally compose it with 'screen'… plus some tweaks&adjustments.

Enjoy movie making!

PS: haven't checked if there are any other HDReffects listed, if so, rename it just-another-fake-HDR :woohoo:

That's because the blacks were dropped thus increasing the contrast of the levels in the mid-range which is where the haze is.

Good technique!
