Boris FX (http://www.borisfx.com), a developer of integrated effects
technology for video and film, has posted a public beta of Boris
Continuum Complete 6 FxPlug (BCC 6 FxPlug) for Apple pro video
applications.
BCC 6 FxPlug brings over 200 filters to Apple Final Cut Pro, Motion,
and Final Cut Express. In addition to new features included with the
recently-released Boris Continuum Complete 6 AE for Adobe — such as
Extruded Text, Splines, and Shapes — BCC 6 FxPlug takes advantage of
Apple FxPlug’s real-time architecture for simultaneous live previews
of dozens of preset transitions, glows, and color and film look
effects in a newly-designed effects browser window. Code-named
“Popcorn”, this new technology delivers the best of Boris on Apple’s
FxPlug platform, says Boris Yamnitsky, founder and president of Boris
FX.
The initial release of BCC 6 FxPlug will feature over a dozen new
FxPlug Shaders. Many of the FxPlug Shaders draw on BCC strengths such
as lights, keying, and 3D. FxPlug Shaders are unique to Apple Final
Cut Pro, Final Cut Express, and Motion, tying directly to each host
application’s render pipe for maximum efficiency and render speed.
BCC 6 FxPlug will be publicly demonstrated for the first time at the
NAB 2009 exhibition held in Las Vegas , Nevada, from April 20-23,
2009 at Booth SL5320. The public beta of Boris Continuum Complete 6
FxPlug is available for free, immediate download from the Boris FX
web site.
