Simple backlight frame using two masks and gaussian blur. LED backlight is sometimes known as Ambilight available on certain model Philips HDTVs. https://www.philips.co.uk/c-e/so/tv-buying-guide/what-is-ambilight-tv It is slightly different than the Border Simple Style in PTE AV Studio. Thanks, Tom Update: New version should work with any aspect ratio. LED Backlight Frame.ptestyle

I made a couple of AV's recently of infrared images at a local tea tree lake. The first one features the scene without the ND filter and some images have an ND filter applied in the following image to smooth the water. The second AV features just the ND images, and it is a shorter version. I am also working on a version of monochrome IR images with colour added in post-processing. Interesting that Youtube features the same image as the thumbnail. Cheers Mark

It is so easy for judges to influence what we do. I once made a judge bait sequence with every arty dissolve I could find. I only inflicted on one judge as I could see the palpitations

Hi Mark They certainly have impact although I did find the snap changes a bit repetitive and some of the images appeared to be duplicated. Perhaps some long dissolves would fool the eye into not realising that a dissolve had taken place. The music would have to change and be more soothing ng

There is a new feature in Photoshop called "Harmonize" which will do a little more than just colour correction. Not sure if it will work on layers so you might have to merge your two layers, apply harmonize, then extract your object again or something similar, but I think that I would give it a try. (It does work with layers). There are a few YT videos explaining the procedure - try this one to start.
