raphaelle gosse Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hello everyone I am shooting a film/ music video and I was wondering how to get this effect? Is it just long exposure ? How about the second picture ? Thank you !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Uli Meyer Posted September 7, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 7, 2020 Judging by the blurred cacti in the background, I presume that the camera is moving in the same direction as the bike. The bike is crisp, except for a streaking helmet, shirt and light. Wouldn't everything be streaking if it was a long exposure? Looks like a post effect to me. The second image could be multiple exposures or a post effect. Would be easier to figure out if one could see it moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me slightly of the Star Trek 1 warp speed thing, only not quite. Second example just looks like echoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted September 7, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 7, 2020 The second one is a digital effects version of the old step-and-repeat optical printing effect made famous by Norman McClaren's Paux de Deux (1969) but also popular with Richard Lester, who used this effect in "The Three Musketeers" credits and one of Superman's transformations from Clark Kent in "Superman II". That video also seems inspired by Paul Cameron's work in "Man on Fire", which did a lot of in-camera multiple exposures using a hand-cranked camera. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted September 7, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 7, 2020 These days we call it the Echo effect in After Effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Hart Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 So long as there is little motion in the image, stacking layers of the same clip in your editor successively one frame delayed with transparency over a firm base image track confers a noise reduction effect. It also paradoxically enables passing objects like cars at night in street lighting to be "seen" through light hedge foliage when you pan with the vehicle. It is useless information in these times of affordable effective noise reduction but a workaround back in the times when Adobe After Effects was hell expensive.

Mei Lewis Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 You may be able to achieve the effect using the effect described at this link, with additionally the blurred layer on top of the non-blurred version and the blurred layer set to only show its brightest areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
