This simple grunge loop is part of a cool.By default the footage features black distortions against white, so add an Invert effect from under the Channel Video Effects, then change the Blend Mode to Screen under the Opacity settings to render the black background transparent. These particular adjustments will increase the reds in the shadows and give the whole footage a warm orange tone.Next, tone down the vibrancy of the colour adjustments with the Saturation option of the Color Balance (HLS) effect.30% takes away the orange tones to create more of a vintage sepia appearance.Footage can begin to look a little muted with saturation adjustments, so bump up the brightness and contrast to around +15% and +25%.Just like textures really help create authentic effects in Photoshop, video resources can be placed over your composition to distress and age your footage.
We can add the various adjustments to this single block of footage while still allowing for edits to the original composition.Open the Color Correction folder under Video Effects and drag RGB Curves, Color Balance (HLS) and Brightness & Contrast effects onto the new sequence.Under the Effects Controls open out the RGB Curves options and begin editing the curves profiles. Create a duplicate of your sequence by dragging it over the “New Sequence” icon then add the word effects to its name. My video takes on a Western theme so old vintage effects will set the scene and give it more authenticity.Video effects can be added to each clip individually, but it then becomes a painstaking task to make minor adjustments when each tweak has to be made numerous times.
In today’s example I’m using my GoPro footage from a horse riding session across the desert at Furnace Creek Ranch in Death Valley.
To begin you’ll need to compose your clips to create your basic video sequence. How to Create Vintage Video EffectsSo let’s get started with some vintage effects. For instance, Photoshop style blending modes appear under the Opacity menu in Premiere, but they’re known as Composite Modes in Final Cut. While this tutorial is based on Adobe Premiere the same effects can be created in Final Cut Pro (or even Express), you’ll just need to dig through the menus to find the correct settings. I soon migrated over to Adobe Premiere and found it much easier to use, with many of the effects and tools having similar menu locations and names to those we’re all familiar with in Photoshop. Adobe Premiere vs Final Cut ProWhen I first got started editing video on my Mac I used Final Cut Express, but I found the application pretty difficult to learn (plus it never seemed to support my footage!).
