NOTE: While a number of categories include a Frequency control, each category determines its frequency separately, so splotches won’t necessarily appear at the same frame as dust or any other category of effect.īlack Dust Amount, White Dust Amount: Control the maximum number of black or white dust particles appearing in any one frame. The defaults are meant to generate a small amount of both black and white dust that is very noticeable. This is effect is similar to the small particles that appear on film that has been run through a projector numerous times. Try lowering this value if you want the splotches to occur less frequently.ĭust essentially draws bits of black and white material onto the frame.

The default value of 50 will cause a splotch to appear on half of the frames. You may need to lower the value on very bright footage (to make the splotch less prominent) or raise the value for very dark footage to bring out the effect.įrequency: Determines how often a splotch will appear in a sequence. Transparency: Controls the darkness of the discolored areas. The Scale value at 1.0 will cover about 40% of a standard DV-size frame or about 16% of a 2K film frame. Number: Controls the number of splotches on any given frame where the scale controls the size. This can happen on any frame and will usually only persist for a frame or two at a time. Splotches manifest as a local dirtiness or discoloration of the frame. High values may look unnatural but feel free to adjust to taste. This is similar to the splotches but occurs throughout the frame and will persist from frame to frame.įunk Opacity: The default is 15%. This simulates a film negative with lightness variation across the entire frame that may be caused by improper storage or in an environment where fungus or mildew could form. MisFire attempts to artistically emulate a number of these defects.įading causes an overall lightening of your image that is exhibited as lower contrast.įade Amount: The default value is 100, lower values will lessen the effect.įunk provides for tone variation across the frame. These defects can show up in the frame or be caused by improper projection. Film defects are wide ranging in their appearance and include problems caused by dust, dirt, film wear, duplication problems, splicing, irregular exposure or improper storage of the film medium. MisFire plug-ins are not a perfect duplication of every type of film defect. For example, if you only want to apply grain and basic scratches, you can apply these as individual effects called Misfire Grain and Misfire Basic Scratches. The main MisFire plug-in is accompanied by individual plug-ins for each effect category.

The effects are: Fading, Funk, Splotches, Dust, Flicker, Vignette, Displacement, Grain and 3 different types of scratches, Microscratches, Basic Scratches and Deep Scratches. Each category of effect can be turned off individually using the category switch.

The main MisFire plug-in is a single complete tool that offers 13 different effects. MisFire adds a host of tools to your effects arsenal to simulate film damage. Just making the information available to the filmmaking community! I can’t figure out what the aemoban site is (the top tier is in Chinese), so I’m reposting the information here (because who knows when that page will disappear). Major props to whomever posted this information online at: I end up having to look stuff up every time, and when I do, I usually end up at this page, so I’m reposting here (basically so it’s easier for me to find!). The problem with MisFire is that I have NO IDEA what the different settings of each thing do.
