Radio Active Look / Night Vision Look

Hi folks.

Been playing with a couple of effects but I am not making a lot of ground.

I am trying to create a high intensity somewhat radio active look, mono color, bright outlines etc.

Also like to create an effect to turn a regular clip to look as if it was shot at night with night vision equipment, all green etc.

Any thoughts welcomed.

The best I could come up with was to apply Black & White and Color Curves at the same time.

Set the Black & White slider to 100%.

In Color Curves, select the Green channel and then play with the curve until you get the look you want.

I also got a pretty good look by using the Channel Blend in combination with Black & White rather than Color Curves. For Channel Blend, select Green Only from the Preset drop-down menu.

You can even add a little Brightness/Contrast onto the chain to intensify it a bit.

For the NVG look, add just a touch of noise FX for a little realism.
