VHS-look plugin

Prizm4,

You seem to have a good start on what constitutes that "look."

I'd add: noise and higher contrast, especially in the colors. The often seen head alignment problem at the bottom of the frame would go a long way towards getting the "VHS look." Maybe capture from a VHS without perfect head alignment (like one could ever get them perfectly aligned?) and create a lower 1/16 video that you can add to your footage maybe with a Track Matte. If you need footage of that little band, let me know, as I've got a ton of VHS capture footage, and should be able to Crop to just that area and burn to DVD for you

Like Craig, I've not seen a kit solution. I think it will more of a list of visual clues and then choosing an Effect to get that look.

I'd get out the pad and pencil (or wordprocessor in Outline mode) and use your observations to start that list. Others will likely add to it.

After you have your list of what constitutes that look, folk here can make suggestions on how to achieve them in PP.

imagination and a little effort was most likely used instead of a plugin.

There are plenty of "tools" available for you to create this and it depends on what you see as a "VHS look"

FWIW - I have never seen a plugin called 'VHS LOOK'
