Sony Vegas Tutorial: Shaky camera effect with NewBlueFX Motion plugins

2009-03-08

Here's a lovely video tutorial with me hugging a tree and a kitten! What more could you want? SHAKY CAM EFFECTS like you see in Cloverfield and Star Trek's Enterprise bridge after being fired upon. Or those psychedelic scenes in Southland Tales. Or every single show with drunk-o-vision. You get the picture… MOVING PICTURES.

When I need video plugins to extend my creativity, only the best will do. That's why I've gone from being an ardent fan to consulting for NewBlueFX. (Connection trivia: you may've noticed some of our effects used on my Second Life movies like this.)

Anyway, the brilliant Todor Fay, my multimedia visionary boss at NewBlue Inc., let me know we've got an awesome…

TIME-LIMITED SPECIAL running until March 15!

You can click here to get Motion Blends AND Motion Effects for US$80 which is an amazing price for this bundle o' wonders. Normal, unexaggerated pricing is $260, so you definitely save here. Click through and watch Todor show you more in his own words. Compare it to what else is out there on the market, and in my tutorial above, you'll see how easy it is to use, how well-priced it is (even in this darn recession), and how unique it can be. Within a few seconds (no kidding), you'll be indulging in A WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOING ON!

Motion Effects includes: Active Camera, Earthquake, Motion Blur, Ripple, Rolling Waves, Shear Energy, Spin Blur, Warp, Wiggle, and Zoom Blur.

Motion Blends includes: Liquify, Roll, Shake, Shear, Shredder, Smear, Spin, Twirl, Wave, and Zoom.

Still unconvinced? We have a FREE TRIAL so you can gain hands-on experience.

These plugins solve practical problems and more extreme settings are quite artistic. I just about cry when I find out people are asking on various video forums, trying to do what these Motion packs simplify, and they slug it out all labor-intensive, wondering…

"Is there a better way?"

I was there once, and YES, THERE IS.

I know you can do some of the same things manually in hosts. I'm thankful for tutorials on the slow way before acknowledging I WANT GREAT RESULTS FAST — with NewBlueFX, it's much swifter, and if you're as resource-savvy as I am or more (AUTOMATION!), you'll know paying for the work we've put into this is worth the time you'll save and the pleasure you'll feel. Optimize your workflow and rock out. Consider it a lovable exchange between artists, yes?

Whether you make machinima or home movies or do video production professionally, Motion Effects & Motion Blends work well on a diverse range of footage: I've tested them on both compact web to HD (1280×720) dimensions myself and am utterly pleased with how they go beyond generic crossfades and blurs to bring you… POETRY IN MOTION!

Amplify your awesome!

How you use them is up to you. Customize presets — I love doing so; you can even save and share them with others — and explore. And if you make something kewl with these or any other NewBlueFX plugins, let me know, I'd love to see!

Special thanx to Ravenelle, who filmed our cat "Uni" and me. <3
