Select the light leak video file on the timeline and look to the Effect Controls panel and under the Opacity settings choose to set the blend mode of this light leak to Screen. This will drop away all the black in the video clip and just leave us with a light leak overlay. Perfect!
Once you have the leak in place, scrub the play head over the completed effect and right-click on the light leak clip and choose Speed/Duration to adjust the speed of the clip if you need it to be faster/slower and also use the regular selection tool to move the clip a few frames back and forth on your timeline to figure out where the effect looks best. TIP: This effect tends to look best when you can align a bright flash in the light leak with the exact moment that the clip switches over.

Anyone have an idea what is going on here? Light leak happens at the ceiling board no matter what elevation I place it. Appears to be picking up sunlight and bouncing it back on the wall. There IS a gap between the wall and the ceiling board, and normals are pointing the correct way. The walls however are thin geometry rather than walls with actual thickness. I prefer working this way with single rooms to allow backface culling easing my navigation. I thought Cycles, being a path tracer, was supposed to be immune to these sorts of problems.
I mean there is a gap between the ceiling board and the wall. And a gap between the ceiling board and the ceiling as well when pushed to the top:

Light leaks are a sought-after visual effect frequently applied to photos, film, and video projects. They create a vintage, retro or illusory look that adds color and tone to your footage. If you want to create the effects with ordinary cameras, it requires a very advanced technique. This technique involves harnessing the power of beautiful light, natural features and stylish overlays to create vibrant images. But you can learn the tricks of the trade that have rapidly become the most sought-after cinematic technique for professionals and hobbyists.
For hobbyists and beginners learning how to create light leaks for the first time, you can use flashlights, spotlights and softboxes to create the effect. The key is to point the camera at the light source and fill your frame entirely with the light. While you can achieve a light effect with the sun, most professionals do not recommend using natural light as your light source. You would have to remove your lens with a manual camera or film camera and cause damage inside the camera. However, if done correctly, you can get a white screen and record it after removing your lens and positioning your camera on a tripod facing the natural light.
If you want to enrich your recorded footage, you can do this in post-production by adding some light leak overlays to your video editing. You can drag and drop overlays directly onto your footage in post-production. With video editing software, you can manage the hues and length of the effect. Light leak overlays offer a very amenable array of effects. Websites, like Rocketstock, offer free 4K templates that can add vintage, retro and stylization tips to enhance the effect. In addition to websites offering free template downloads, editing software like Premiere Pro and After Effects can spice up your footage in a matter of seconds.
In addition to Premiere and After Effects, you can add light leak effects in Photoshop with overlays that are pretty simple to apply. Photoshop can even create the effect for you. One of the easiest ways to add light leak effects to your photographs or video is to use free online editors.
Camera phones, such as iPhones, have image editing apps used by professional photographers to create a wide range of light leak effects. Whether through your phone or computer, you can dress up your images with different types of effects and have fun doing it.
In the past, photographers and videographers tried to avoid light leaks at all costs. The breach of light into their camera would ruin their film. However, over time, they have become a favorite visual to firmly produce a temperate and textured look and can add a touch of nostalgia to your footage.
Light leaks were common in decades gone by when analog cameras and rolls of film were the norm. While the effect was often captured by mistake, it has become a much-loved aesthetic that transforms even the most mundane photos into vintage-inspired masterpieces.
Light leaks are simply areas of light which have leaked into your camera or roll of film, thus affecting your photograph. This can occur if the seals on the lens or in the space between the lens and the camera body aren't closed properly. Additionally, when a roll of film is exposed to light (such as when the rear of your camera is opened), it can result in this light leaking into your photos.
Light leaks can infuse any photo with a retro vibe, yet in order to take that image to vintage heights, try adding a vintage photo effect too. Both blend together seamlessly to create your dreamiest and most intriguing images yet.
