We are very excited to announce the latest feature addition for FilmConvert Nitrate, Halation!
Releasing on the 20th of November 2023, Halation will be sold as an add-on to FilmConvert Nitrate licenses for $59 USD, or as part of a new license purchase.
Halation is a by-product that comes from shooting on film, that helps add to the dreamy and romantic feeling that comes with shooting celluloid. We can see Halation occur when bright parts of an image gain a red glow or ‘halo’, most commonly seen around strong light sources. While this isn’t necessarily an effect that one can shoot for, it’s thought of as a desired effect that can help soften your overall image.
We’ve been working hard to create truly authentic halation, which accurately mimics how halation occurs on film. We’ve meticulously traced the light coming through in your image to determine where halation should occur and how it affects your image to create an effect that is seamless and beautiful.
Our primary controls allow you to adjust the sensitivity, strength, hue, and softness of the halation on your image. You can then dive further with our additional settings, to further tailor the halation and add that extra detail to your image.
