|
|
|
|
<h2 id="description">Description</h2>
|
|
<p>Applies a hazy, washed-over film that resembles the visual blur of “soap-blinded eyes” — a foggy, filmy distortion that softens detail and reduces clarity.<br />
|
|
The result is a dreamy, smeared, low-contrast haze that feels like staring through suds, steam, or a semi-opaque membrane.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="purpose">Purpose</h2>
|
|
<p><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">soapblind</code> is designed for creators who want:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>soft-focus blur with a filmy, washed texture,</li>
|
|
<li>low-clarity visuals that feel dreamy, obscured, or emotional,</li>
|
|
<li>stylized haze for music videos, collage, or narrative sequences,</li>
|
|
<li>an immediate, no-argument atmospheric filter,</li>
|
|
<li>a diffused look that smooths harsh details and glazes the frame.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="how-it-works">How It Works</h2>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><strong>Surface Diffusion</strong><br />
|
|
A hazy overlay softens micro-contrast and reduces sharpness.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Fog-Like Bloom</strong><br />
|
|
Highlights bloom outward, mimicking fogged or soap-smeared vision.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Clarity Reduction</strong><br />
|
|
Noise, edges, and fine detail are blurred to create a dreamlike veil.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Encoding</strong><br />
|
|
The final treated video is encoded with global Videobeaux settings (codec, CRF, pixel format).</li>
|
|
</ol>

<h2 id="technical-notes">Technical Notes</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Smooth surfaces and skin tones take especially well to the soapblind look.</li>
|
|
<li>High-contrast footage will soften dramatically as edges blur.</li>
|
|
<li>Compression can make fogginess appear more pronounced at higher CRF levels.</li>
|
|
<li>Works as a gentler alternative to heavy blur filters.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="recommended-usage">Recommended Usage</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Emotional, melancholic, or introspective scenes.</li>
|
|
<li>Dream sequences or memory dissolves.</li>
|
|
<li>Music videos needing soft glaze or atmospheric haze.</li>
|
|
<li>Preprocessing for collage pieces to unify mismatched clips.</li>
|
|
<li>Creating softness before applying glitch or distortion filters.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="quality-tips">Quality Tips</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Lower CRF yields velvety, smooth haze.</li>
|
|
<li>Higher CRF introduces gritty texture into the fog.</li>
|
|
<li>Combine with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">slight_smear</code> for a double-soft aesthetic.</li>
|
|
<li>Pair with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">repainting</code> for painterly, softened brushlike visuals.</li>
|
|
<li>Use before LUTs if you want the softness baked into the grade; use after if you want LUTs to remain crisp.</li>
|
|
</ul>
