Channel Blur filter in Motion
Lets you apply a blur effect selectively to each color channel of a layer: red, green, blue,
and alpha. Create custom glow effects that retain sharpness in selected channels while
softening other channels.
Adjust this filter using the parameter controls in the Filters Inspector:
• Amount: Sets the radius of the blur.
• Blur Red: Sets the blur to affect the red channel.
• Blur Green: Sets the blur to affect the green channel.
• Blur Blue: Sets the blur to affect the blue channel.
• Blur Alpha: Sets the blur to affect the alpha channel.
• Horizontal: Sets the percentage of maximum horizontal blur. This is a percentage of the
Amount parameter.
• Vertical: Sets the percentage of maximum vertical blur.
• Crop: Sets whether the image is cropped beyond its original borders.
• 360° Aware: Eliminates seams created when the filter is applied to 360° media (in a
360° environment).
• Mix: Sets the percentage of the original image that’s blended with the blurred image.
