But would you actually use it? People want "pretty" flares. While this test
provides nice reference material, those flares could look pretty annoying o=
n top
of your perfectly shot footage... Dunno, it's one of those things where I'm=
 torn
in two. On one hand I'm trying to produce my flare presets as realistic as
possible, on the other hand you have to acknowledge that people want to hav=
e
control over the look. It's a fine line. Once you make them all physicallly
based, you lose that kind of control... Having an option to at least simula=
te
some lements naturally would be nice, though... who knows, perhaps some day
someoen turns this stuff into an AE plug-in:
