Filter types and parameters
Intro to filter types in Motion
There are 13 filter types in Motion:
• 360° filters are designed to work with 360° footage.
• Blur filters create design effects or simulate the real-world blurring that occurs due to
the depth of field in photographed material.
• Border filters frame layers in a composition in various ways.
• Color filters create design effects or fix a problem with contrast, color, gamma, or
brightness.
• Distortion filters change the shape of layers—warping, twisting, and pulling them in
different directions.
• Glow filters combine blur with brightness and color effects.
• Keying filters isolate a foreground image from a uniform background color (a green
screen, for example) for special effects compositing.
• Looks filters give images a special look, such as black-and-white film noir or film photos
from the 1960s.
• Sharpen filters create a high-contrast overlay that emphasizes edges in an image.
• Stylize filters simulate different media, such as film, television, or print.
• Tiling filters create geometric patterns using shapes that are arranged into mosaics.
• Time filters manipulate video clips temporally.
• Video filters are utilitarian in nature, and can help prepare a project for broadcast
output.

Blur filters
Intro to Blur filters in Motion
Use Blur filters to simulate the real-world blurring that occurs due to the depth of field in
photographed material, or to create designed effects.
There are 12 Blur filters:
• Channel Blur gives you control over blurring each color channel of an object.
• Circle Blur creates a circular blur within an image.
• Compound Blur blurs an object using the specified channel of a designated map image.
• Defocus filter mimics the out-of-focus effect that occurs through a real-world
camera lens.
• Directional Blur blurs an object along a specific angle, to create a blurred streaking
effect.
• Gaussian Blur creates a soft blur effect.
