beautiful detailed tutorial ❤❤❤❤no need for the Glare node to get that Bloom Effect in Blender ..... all you need to do is to set the Color Space of the Image Node from sRGB to Filmic sRGB ... this will create a bloom effect for the bright color, just the way it happens in Evee....

[@porwinii]

Hi Ryan, is that possible to use glare on selected objects only? I'm making an animation where few objects lights up. I'd like to add Glare effect also but just for few elements for few seconds. Thanks

[@eduardorodriguez5945]

If you need to do it with Cycles it is not possible to assign it to a single object, since it is an effect that manipulates all the existing lights in the composition node and does it after the render, in Eevee it is possible to do it, since the effect is not It applies to the general composition, if not it is applied per object before the render. I wish in a future version they would give us the possibility of doing this in Cycles, it would take the lighting to another level.

[@dwarakesh5891]

Hey Ryan! In the walk fly navigation view thing, how do you render the model, a character and a dynamic camera to actually make it a game ?

[@RyanKingArt]

Well, I'm not sure exactly. Its not really a game. Its just some first person control features that act sort of like a video game. If you want to make an actual game, Its probably best to use a real game engine.

[@omg_squid6949]

Let there be glow!

Yes! 😀

Is there a way to mix two types of glare? Like, Fog Glow and Simple Star combined? I trying Mix Shader but didn't work.

Cool. This worked for me - just what I needed. Thanks. But you should have finished with how to save it/render an animation. I really do like your tutorial style, though. It's really easy to follow and keep up.

how do you do this for a video in cycles?

[@antocherian5459]

my emmison object is becoming white if i increase the strength but if decrease it to get back the color theres no glow

[@The062Violinist]

does it work on all materials, or do you need certain properties in the material to get the effect?

how he render the pic ? help me i cant render that pic with the glowing

help ! Im press the V key to much now I cant see it , is there any way to get the scene back ?

Yes, press Alt V to zoom out, and V to zoom in.

How to make an animation with this effect?

[@daniellastres8056]

so I did exactly this, but when I render my image, the glow isint there (for cycles)

[@RyanKingArt]

maybe try turning up the light brightness. Or you can also change the threshold on the glare.

[@CGIPadawan]

I'm getting weird glowing orb artifacts when I have Eevee and Bloom switched on. The lamps are not visible in viewport and I have no point lamps in scene. What could be causing it?

[@ShienlanMiitsues]

Any idea how to do this in an animation? Do I have to do this per each single frame?

[@RyanKingArt]

if you setup the glare in the compositor, it will add the glare after rendering each frame.

Show how you render with a transparent background. When a png is saved, the glow disappears.

Cycles does not yet have a glow shader. Composition with Glare is similar to any other video editor.

[@johanericsson2403]

I have some objects in my scene that are blue lights. I have the material set up as black base color, blue emission at 4 strength, and a volume scatter plugged into the volume with a blue color. I simply want these "lights" to glow. NOTHING seems to work. Volume scatter does absolutely nothing regardless of settings. If I try this "glare" approach (I'm using Cycles), nothing whatsoever, I assume because it brightens white based on a threshold (although again, it has absolutely zero effect no matter what I tweak on it). I tried the method of making a big cube that encloses the whole scene with a volume scatter applied to it. I turned volume scatter off all my lights so I wouldn't get fog, hoping it would just make the volume scatter on the blue light objects work. Nope! MAJOR fog, ZERO glow from blue lights. It just seems like not only is Blender utterly non-intuitive, I can't even find an answer online for the simplest problems. I just want these freaking blue lights to freaking glow!!!

[@pixelstresd2971]

All beautiful, but, organically where there are no electric lights, there can be no bloom/glow. The bodywork of the object is just the reflection of light without bloom/glow. How to fix this? How to specify eevee when it's just electric light, yes it's bloom/glow, but when it's not electric light, it's just reflection light organic?

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm I'm not sure.
