Creating a vignette overlay

[TuxForLife]

Instead of processing a vignette every time, I would like to create a vignette overlay and compose it over to decrease rendering time.

So I'm hoping to create a transparent canvas, with black corners, however, I can't seem to produce it correctly.

This one gives me a black canvas with black corners, so it's 100% black.

Code: Select all

convert -size 1920x1080 xc:none \
-background black -vignette 0x250+-60-60 \
vignette.png

This one gives me a black canvas with clear corners.

Code: Select all

convert -size 1920x1080 xc:black \
-background none -vignette 0x250+-60-60 \

I don't know what effect you want, but your sigma is huge and your radii are negative. You really want circles with negative radii?! Try something like "0x25+60+60".

0x250+-60-60 was giving me what I wanted, subtle dark corners.

I want something like the first one, but just transparency instead of blue
