Make sure to match your fade value to control that. And have stars with opacity 100%, using feathering for edges if desired.

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.

Hey Stephen,

 

When I try that I get translucent stars (given that there's going to be a nebula in the background). Perhaps I'm doing it wrong, are you able to send me a copy of your project?

 

I've made some modifications and I'm thinking the results I'm getting in this second project are heading in the right direction for me: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fzqlyw1zk4agsl9/star%20field%202.aep.zip

I took a look at your project. I think just changing “Near Vanish” to a value of 50 gets a much better (to my eye) result. Your setting was too low for my taste.
