Original Post
For those doing promotional videos for their games we have released a video plugin that allows you to add glow, aka blooming, as a post effect in your video pipeline. The plugin is an OpenFX plugin that works in video editing software such as Nuke, Catalyst Edit, Natron or any other OpenFX compatible host software.
The blooming filter allows you to set the threshold intensities that you want affected by the glow. You can also color tint the glow or make it anisotropic for stretched glow effects typically used for really bright intensity light streaks.

You can find out more about this plugin on the Genifect OpenFX plugin suite page.
