Hi Steve
I don't think I understand your answer. I am applying the filter to an entire video clip having first converted the clip to a smart object. When you refer to applying the filter to a single frame, I'm not following you or perhaps should say I don't know to do that. When you add I should select all, copy, and paste into a new image, I'm not seeing the road to ending up with a file that I can open in or import into After Effects.
If it's possible for you to expand on what you're suggesting, I'd appreciate hearing it.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
