VAXIS VFX 4x5.65"STAR-CROSS FILTER

Vaxis VFX Star-Cross is a 4 × 5.65″ glass effect filter for matte boxes. It turns every point light source into a star with distinct diffraction spikes, giving night scenes a striking touch. A pouch is included.

Star-Cross turns street lamps, headlights and other point lights into stars. Primary diffraction spikes radiate from each bright source and make the shot more striking – it works best at night and in low light with distinct light sources.

Stars from point lights

Lamps, headlights and reflections gain sharp spikes. The filter optics create the effect, so it changes with the light and the camera movement.

Nights with bright lights

It shines in darkness and dusk, wherever the scene has bright point light sources.

Pouch included

The filter comes in a protective pouch for safe storage and transport between shoots.

The effect, in camera

The effect comes from the real lights in the scene, so it reacts to every movement of camera and light – something post-production struggles to imitate.

Diffraction spikes

Distinct primary spikes radiate from bright light sources and add impact to the shot.

Optical glass

Made of optical glass for a clean image and sharp, consistent effects.

4 × 5.65″ format

The standard size for cinema filters – it fits common matte boxes and filter trays.

Stack and swap

The filter slides into a tray in front of the lens, so you can combine it with other filters and swap it without touching the lens.
