Photo Negative Effect (colorama AE) HOW?

[Carrington Benz]

Hi,

I have been on the hunt for awhile now - trying to recreate a true negative effect like on a camera film roll.
I have tried using invert & lumanace map etc but it just doesn't seem to cut it as a true negative look.
The closest I have come is by selecting colorama in ae which does a pretty good job but, I use fcp & have alot of footage I want work with so - there must be a good plugin outhere that can recreate this negative effect on fcp ?

Cheers

True camera negative film has an orange mask, so it's not just an inverse of positive colors, there's also an overall orange cast to the negative.

(not that that helps you in any way, but if you're getting close as-is, try shifting your image balance to the orange and see if it gets you what you want...)
