<br /><br />I bet some of you have been dreaming about having a movie with a lightning effect that looks REALISTIC.<br />Well the time is finally here.<br /><br />You're gonna need 4 programs for this:<br />* <u><a href='http://www.ulead.com/vs/runme.htm' target='_blank'>Ulead VideoStudio</a></u>.<br />* <u><a href='http://www.sonymediasoftware.com/products/showproduct.asp?pid=965' target='_blank'>Sony Video Vegas</a></u>.<br />* A image editing program. (i'm using Photoshop)<br />* The <u><a href='http://neuron2.net/www.math.berkeley.edu/benrg/huffyuv.html' target='_blank'>Huffyuv</a></u> Videocodec.<br /><br /><b>Step 1:</b> Open your image editing software and fill a pic with a light green colour like this.<br />Save it as a JPG and name it for example. "green.jpg"<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT1.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /]<br /><br /><b>Step 2:</b> Now we need to open Ulead MovieStudio and import our image.<br />Press the Bar to the top-right saying whatever it says (Marked Red) and select "Video Filter"<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT2.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /]<br /><br /><b>Step 3:</b> Find the effect called "Lightning" and drag'n drop it onto the "green.jpg" image.<br />You can play with the settings or just go with the default ones, i didn't bother.<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT3.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /]<br /><br /><b>Step 4:</b> Press the Share, then Create Video File and Choose Custom.<br />Choose Microsoft AVI Files where you choose your output filetype.<br />Now use theese settings and it's important that you use the lossless Huffyuv codec to compress it with since you don't want to loose any videoquality in the lightning.<br />Name the file lightning.avi or whatever suits you.<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT4.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /] <br /><br /><b>Step 5:</b> It's time to import our "lightning.avi" into Vegas.<br />The first thing we're gonna do is to remove the green colour from our "lightning.avi" file so we have only the lightning itself left and the green colour won't be there anymore.<br />Go to Video FX on the bottom of the screen, then the Chroma Keyer category and apply "Pure Green Screen" to the clip.<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT5.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /]<br /><br /><b>Step 6:</b> Create a new track under the one you have your lightning on and import a clip it could look nice one.<br />You can also make a mask on it so it looks like the lightning dissaperes behind a building or something cool.<br />[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v92/Indiana_Jonas/Tutorial/LT6.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /] <br /><br />Anyway here's my final outcome, it doesn't look very convincing now but it can, if you play a little with some settings and have some good footage to put it on.<br />[img]http://img456.imageshack.us/img456/8398/lightning0ur.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /]

First of all Aries, if you know about posting in this type of forums, you must know that html tags do not work.

I know, I'm finding the setting that allows it  Just testing if it worked, obviously not.
