I find tutorials for effects that are very shot specific - such as a lens flare - are difficult to produce properly because everyone’s shot will be different. In the studio version of Resolve 14, however, there’s a flare plug-in that’s it’s incredibly powerful.
The majority of NLEs come with a flare plug-in, but as you can see with Premiere’s below, they typically aren’t that great. Abrams‘s reasoning for excessive lens flare in Star Trek - or if you need to match a flareless shot with another flared shot in your scene, you’re typically going to need a plug-in like Optical Flare. However, if you need to include a lens flare in your shot for creative reasons - see J.J. They are the icons of blockbusters, right? Nearly a decade later, I now spend as much time as possible keeping my shots flare-free. How times change. When VideoCopilot announced their Optical Flare plug-in in 2009 (released in 2010), my heart filled with joy knowing that every single shot from my DV camcorder would now feature a lens flare.
Need a lens flare for your shot? Avoid the unimpressive plug-ins and customize your own flare in DaVinci Resolve.
