Detailed iris effect

[Akirah Sendoh]

Hello !

I'm new here in the community 

Since i don't have a great experience in the After effects 

I want to know how could i do the sames iris effect ? And which blending mode should i choose

As you can see in the images,

There is some kind of light or light reflection 

I really want to get the same results as the pictures 

And thank you.

Try adding a few pixels of blur to a lighter colored shape. Try the Add or Screen blend mode. Fine-tune the effect with opacity adjustments. You will have to create the shape of the reflection.

Thanks 

But i was meaning in the iris there is some white or colored rays 

How to do it ?

[Rick Gerard]

There is no plugin that will create that kind of shape automatically. You draw the shape with the pen tool or paint it with a brush, blur the edges a little bit, then you set the blend mode to Add or Screen and adjust the opacity. 

To create the spikes you can use Radial Blur on a small circle with some bumps. Set the Radial Blur to zoom and see what you get.

You need layers + artwork + blurs + blend modes. 

This is a very similar technique to the others I have explained.
