Color Shift Effect? Help!?!
by Dirk D. Lopez on Aug 4, 2009 at 5:42:39 am

Hi all, I need help figuring out how to do this, for lack of a better
word "Color Shift", out of registration, 3d channels, effect.

Still Example:
• http://img98.yfrog.com/i/5ea.png/

Moving Examples:
• :13–:16 second mark– end titles for "Stranger Than Fiction"

• :30-:31 second mark "Green"

Here's a post about some ways to create a result similar to what I see in your examples---separating the color components of an image and offsetting each channel's position.
