This alternate vignette effect adjusts the exposure of the edges of the frame, instead of applying an overlay. This can produce a subtler and more natural vignetting result. The vignette can also be pushed brighter, which creates a halo effect or can be used to counteract unwanted vignetting in the source footage.
- Amount: Sets the exposure of the vignette. Positive values brighten the exposure, and negative values darken the exposure.
- Mid-point: Sets the distance from the center of the effect to the mid-point of the gradient.
- Center: By default the vignette is centered in the frame, but you can reposition the center if you wish.
- Position: Sets the exact location of the vignette center, using X and Y values.
- Use Layer: Select any other layer on the timeline to use it’s position as the center of the vignette. When a layer is selected, the Position property above functions as an offset from the selected layer’s position.
Stretch
- Global: Adjusts the overall size of the gradient.
- Horizontal: Adjusts the width of the vignette.
- Vertical: Adjusts the height of the vignette.
- Rotation: Rotates the vignette from its default angle.
