Gaussian Blur

effects-gaussian_blur-2504.webp

Description

This effect blurs the clip by applying a Gaussian function (known from statistics as an expression for the normal distribution). By default, all planes will be affected. By setting the blur effect to different planes (e.g. red, green or blue) interesting artistic effects can be achieved.
