MODO | Introduction to Bloom

Bloom is an image processing effect used to reproduce an imaging artifact of real-world cameras.This effect produces fringes of light extending from the borders of bright areas in an image, contributing to the illusion of an extremely bright light overwhelming the camera or eye capturing the scene.

The Bloom feature in MODO is a great resource for recreating these image artifacts and can also be useful when creating items such as neon tubing and light sabers.
