Just wanted to let you know that Knoll 3D Flare has been released. This free set of tools that allows you to easily create Knoll Lens Flares in After Effects 3D space. This add-on for Knoll Light Factory (2.5) in After Effects includes fantastic features like Edge flare-ups, color linking, Z-depth intensity, and full 3D obscuration.

You can learn more about it and its feature set here.

The short version is that Knoll 3D Flare adds 3D (and other) features into Knoll Light Factory Pro – the lens flare tools  used in Avatar, Transformers 1 and 2, Star Trek (yes, the J.J. Abrams one), and many MANY other films. Download a trial, and you’ll see why Knoll Light Factory continues to be Hollywood’s go-to lens flare tool.

Let us know what you think of Knoll 3D Flare. We look forward to hearing from you.
