romantic dreamy effect
 

I am trying to get my head around Final cut studio 2 as I used to edit on Premiere pro with the matrox card. In the matrox effects I had an option to use a soft focus filter that had a slight glow in it and I used this for some of my highlight footage as it looked dreamy and made the brides dress kind of glow, I suppose it was a bit like a pro amp filter with a soft focus.

Could someone please tell me how to do this in FC studio 2 as I am sure there is a filter somewhere to give me this effect and then if I was to get this look can that customized filter be save some way as a preset or favorite?

Paul,

You can easily accomplish this task with a combination of filters; any blur/softfocus filter and either glow or bloom. Using these combinations will give you more control than a single filter-effect alone.

Thanks Robert, I will try that out.
