environment glow

hello blender users can anyone help me with adding environment glow in the compositing i’m working on a project with some of my students and want to add a glow to make it look a little better. I followed a tutorial where a user masked out the area of the footage he wanted the glow to appear https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=162RLpDJGK0
i tried it but it didn’t come out so good wondering if someone have a better way and can share the knowledge on how to make it look better in the compositor thanks. i want to mask out areas around the whiteboard and shirt and add a glow like in the smoke and fire but i don’t have a clue on making it look good


The VSE has a Glow effect as well. Have you tried that? Otherwise you add a node>Filter>Glare - Fog Glow. Alter the threshold value toonly add glow to the bright parts of the shot.

no i havent tried neither yet but i will tonight thanks 3pointedit just also want you to know that i enjoy all your youtube videos

Thank you for watching. I wish that I had time to make more…
