  1. I am looking for not very complicated way of getting CRT off effect. Something like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4Wt23WPvZg

    Can anyone recommend me any tools/software packages to do that?

  2. So, super moderator has decided to close a similar (but no the same) thread where I was asking about different effect. Here is the link of that thread, if you know how to do that effect, please let me know: https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/367641-How-to-get-this-effect

    The first one is a tool in Sony Vegas called "TV Simulator".

    The second one is simple to do. Two black shapes converging over the background. [WRONG! See Next Post]

    You will need an NLE that can do compositing(layering).

    The above GIF shows a similar effect made using AviUtl (free).
    The effect is accessed by:

  5. For effect from closed thread you need 2d/3d filter capable to use video as texture and apply variable distortions.
    Check blender eventually synfig, not sure about lua (FLuaG https://github.com/Youka/FLuaG )under Avisynth

    If we look at the phone animation frame-by-frame, it's pretty simple:



    They flip the image, and squeeze it down vertically, to a sliver, then squeeze again horizontally. But to make it really pop, they fade to white along the way, and at the very end, fade to black.

    Flipping the image conveys the mental idea of the beginning of a shutdown sequence, did you notice that? It throws off your eye so the start of the transform looks more "electronic". More "StarTrekkie".

    I learned a lot from this too.

  7. I have also analyzed that video frame-by-frame. I have decided to go with Vegas. It took me few hours to replicate this (I have not used this software before).

    Thank you all for help.

  8. Just to add to budwzr's breakdown, there is also a layered dual image, and you can add an afterglow/afterimage as in the video sample (hard to see in the gif) to make it look more real .

    Yeah, Good eye. I see that double image with an offset. I think there might even be a dissolve in there, or maybe that's GIF artefacts. And I just noticed some light from the phone spilling onto the fingertips. Now that's the sign of a pro right there.

    All these little individual artistic flairs, when pulled together, create the magic.

    Mwahhahaha.
