emboss (tinted) is a color effects plug-in that creates an ‘emboss’ effect on your clip. There are multiple ways of embossing a clip, and this plug-in takes the most basic approach by enhancing strong contrasts. Internally, it creates a grayscale image (which contains the embossed image), which can be mixed back into the original clip.

As expected, we have taken the emboss algorithm, and dragged it a few miles further afield for even cooler effects. Since at the heart of the algorithm is a difference engine, we thought it would be fun if the difference was displayed against a reference color. The result was the ‘tinted’ part, which is a really nice addition to the base effect.

Used with extreme settings, this plug-in produces similar results to our ‘edge detect’ plug-in.

Requirements:
iMovie 3 or higher.
