Black PRO-MIST Filter EFFECT - Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop CC Tutorial

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite effects in the book, an editing technique to replicate the highlight glow/soften effect created by using a black pro-mist filter. The pro-mist filter effect is easy and works the same way in most photo and video editing software. Hope you enjoy!

LOVE the fact that your videos are straight to the point, no bs, you are

[lukassimkanin]

I did notice it in your videos.. I don’t want to use it but it’s nice to see how you do it. Great tutorial as always!

For landscape photography, they often use a similar process called the Orton Effect (from Michael Orton).
I hadn't thought of using it for video though, thank you Aidin for showing us this.

I use myself a Tiffen Black Mist and add another one I created myself on top of . Although this combination soften my skins and the highlights pretty nicely, your trick is coming very much in handy as I have some little Xmas lights in the background of my clip that needed a bit more halo. I have just isolated them using the Luma Key and blurred them with the Gaussian Blur and the result is impressive. Not only it looks like there's a specific bloomy filter on them but also it feels like I have earned one aperture stop to the lens. I have used an f/1.8 lens and the blurriness behind me now separates me from the background like an f/1.4 would do. Thanks Aidin!

BPM add mist on the dark shadow as well. So you can't just key out shadow, instead, you have to use screen to add and use curve to darken the shadow to reduce the mist on the shadow. YOu can also use magic bullet looks, it has a diffusion filter inside with BPM presets.

simply Just drag and drop (Vr Glow) it's easy and looks better 🤟🏻

Super useful! Might use it in my upcoming daily vlogs, thanks so much :)

[drewkocak]

Oh wow, you weren’t kidding. Super fast & easy lol

Great vid as always Aidin. Suggestion for a follow up video would be to compare achieving this effect in post (as done here) versus using a physical lens filter like the Tiffen Pro Mist and the pros & cons of each. Great work, keep it up.

[TheCoddiwompler]

Love this, thanks for sharing. I started using this in my videos. Being subtle with it adds a nice extra bit of character. Very cool!

[TheSpinery]

I like the new shadowed background in your videos. Looks great.

[VikramNeeham]

You helped me a lot with my filmmaking man, keep doing you Aidin!
