a friend of mine, Troy who is an avid collector and restorer of video and 
camera equipment like me
recently was experimenting with this look as you were talking about, you can 
see the result of his tests here

Scott,

Looks great! Nice effect.

A few years ago, when I was working on "Malcolm in the Middle" using
the DS Nitris, there was an effect "button" labeled "ORTH". I don't
recall if this was a Sapphire effect or not, but enabling it did give
you a fairly good looking simulation of an image orthicon halo "look".
