Lens Flare for Final Cut Pro For Mac

Designed to help you add lens flare effects to your video projects, Lens Flare for Final Cut Pro is a great plug-in that can be added both to your Final Cut Pro and to your Motion 5 toolbox. As a result, you will be able to give an artistic look to your movie projects in no time.

To start the installation process for Motion 5 you have to double click the plug-in file: when the application is launched, choose to “Save as” the project, select the RGB House category and then press the “Publish” button.

If you encounter problems you might have to search for the Lens Flare folder in the Motion app Content folder and copy the plug-in files in the Motion Templates/ RGB House/ Lens Flare/ Lens Flare.moth directory.

In Final Cut Pro, the plug-in works as a generator so to install it you must open the Contents folder, navigate to the resources and copy the plug-in to the Movies/Motion Templates/Effects/RGB HOUSE directory. All you have to do next is launch the Final Cut Pro application.

However, if you do not have other “motion templates” you can use the Total Adjustment plug-in to put everything in order (the Total Adjustment plug-in is available free of charge).

Once the Lens Flare for Final Cut Pro plug-in is installed, you will be able to find its capabilities in the Generators RGB HOUSE group (in Final Cut Pro) and you can drag and drop it to your timeline above the clip. You have the possibility to adjust the blending mode, the effect color, steak, glow, intensity, scale and much more.

To conclude, Lens Flare for Final Cut Pro is able to apply beautiful effects to your video projects although the installation process might prove to be challenging.
