I have search and search and search to find ways of recreating the orange glowing effect such as show here:

http://www.fotosearch.com/DGV703/1485009/

Ive seen it in many different types of films, and im eager to use it on my own.
I assume it can be recreated in After Effects, but i have no clue where to begen. All my trials and errors have not yet been sufficient enough to come up with the look and i have not yet found any tutorials or advice. Please help, Thnx
 
one idea: film a copy machine with the lid up then color tint it in color finesse.
 
I can not believe what those quys are charging for that clip, $320 for 12 sec, 16 frames. That is That is $1.17 a frame. I can see why you want to learn how to do it for free.

The 25 images for $599, is a much better deal.

I quess if it was easy, everyone would do it.
 
well just make some images ie: in photo program, and overlay it. and plus put some light and out of focus.
 
That looks like nothing more than a haivly blurred lense flare horizontally stretched with some gradiant overlay for color, or just colored by itself, and animated brightness.

I sure as hell wouldnt pay for that. a couple of layers with lense flares and/or glow filter blurred would get something very close.
 
thats a tail burn which you can get at the end of a film spool, i think getty images has a package called film effects that has lots of them
 
Knoll Light Factory can easily create this effect, if you have the money for the AE plug in. (http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/knolsec2teso.html)

Really, really useful plug in for adding glints and lighting effects to all kinds of shots (not just the dreaded and overused LENS FLARE either). But the effect you linked a sample of can be created in less than five minutes with this plug-in.

Hope this helps.
 
1. Get a fire extinguisher.
2. Cut a hole in a black sheet or blanket.
3. Put a bright light behind it.
4. Shoot the light while opening and closing the iris and panning.
5. Keep shooting until the blanket catches on fire. You should see a nice, flickering, warm, orange glow.
6. Extinguish fire.

Or skip 5 and 6, and just stretch and filter in post.
 
Jeez, if they make that much money doing only that, heck, I'll see you all in two weeks with my new stock effects library.
