Lens flare filter

I was just thinking it would be really cool if there was a lens flare feature as a special effect for films ect. It will help scenes look more cinematic. Here is my concept:


(Made with MS paint and gimp)

Maybe some stock transparent images of lens flare could be used instead of those slightly-transparent shapes I made. Let me know any of your thoughts on this and if it could possibly be an actual feature.

Thanks!

You can find more lens flare png to add more effect in your image.

There are quite a few free lensflare videos on YouTube. This is a good one:

Lensflare clips need to be in a separate track using the blend mode “Add”. I usually need to tone them down - the “Opacity” filter works well for this.
