Does anyone have any idea where to get some nice stock footage of lightning against a black backround (or a transparent backround)? We need it for our upcoming film. Also, if no one knows where to find some, do you know a good technique to use on how to make some? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Detonation Films.com may have some...
After effects has a lightning effect, so does Premier.
If you don't have those, I'm not really sure....... Could you draw them in Photoshop, or Gimp?
Hope I helped! 
I can make lightning now!
I'll make you some, if you want.
Could you show us an example?
Sure!
I'll do it as soon as I finish my script for Septfest.
Do you need it any sooner then that?
$59, FOR ONE STORM CLOUD?!?!?
Doesn't that seem a little over the top?
You can download it for free if you're okay with a transparent pond5 logo (Which is barely visible if you do it right). Look for the button that says "Download a low-resolution comp". It's not that low-res. I've used they're effects in Disco Inferno, Zombie, and others. They're pretty good.
Yeah. I thought so.
From my expierience I would flick the falsh on your camera every other shot or wahtever timing you want. Make sure you film in a dark room with no flash to start out with!
BuilderBrothers,
Did you get the video?
Sorry about that ZP. Yes, we did get the video. Unfortunately, it was not what we were looking for. You had electric lightning, not weather lightning. However, it really doesn't matter anymore, since we decided not to have lightining at all. So this thread can now be closed.
iMovie HD 6 has a really great lightning effect
