Twinkle

[Bob D]

I remember some time back there was an effect shared or shown of a twinkle effect. It's the type of effect where, like a twinkle shines on someones teeth when they smile. If anyone remembers or know how to do this - I am interested.

They used the Lens Flare effect Bob.

OK. I'll work with that some more. I thought it had more of a twinkle effect. So far, I've only been able to get the lens flare to look circular.

Thanks guys. I followed the threads and I am able to get it to work on the clip, but without the "glint" effect. I tried to do it on a transparent title without success. Nothing shows up at all. I also tried on a black video with transparency and again nothing shows up. So I've settled for the lens flare and it is small enough where the halo effect doesn't really come into play.

If memory serves you have to bump up the brightness of the efrfect when you use it on transparent titles. But sounds like you got what you need anyways...
