The Boris FX Continuum Complete 7 FxPlug for Mac (Upgrade) offers over 210 filters that extend the capabilities of Mac OS based versions of Apple NLE software, namely Apple Final Cut Studio and Apple Final Cut Express. Integrating 16-bit deep-color pixel processing capabilities, the OpenGL hardware accelerated or multi-core processor driven FxPlug filters provide you with a variety of effects. Intuitive on-screen controls offer you the ease and simplicity of creating multi-layer composites with comprehensive tools that apply keying, lighting, color, and even temporal effects.
Owners of previous versions of Boris Continuum Complete FxPlug are eligible for this upgrade.
Reasons To Upgrade
3 Way Color Grade Filter
BCC 3 Way Color Grade provides a professional color grading process complete with three custom color wheels for pedestal/gamma/gain adjustment. The filter includes built-in masking and keying tools to isolate areas of secondary color correction. Separate color grading can be applied to the inside and outside of a mask, eliminating an extra compositing step.
Noise Reduction Filter
BCC Noise Reduction smoothes out video noise using spatial and temporal information derived from the video clip - especially in dark areas of an image.
Lens Blur Filter
BCC Lens Blur emulates a popular lens blur or rack defocus effect where out-of-focus highlights of an image clip take on the shape of the lens shutter. The filter includes a gradient map layer to control the depth of focus.
Lens Shape Filter
BCC Lens Shape is a designer effect similar to a rack defocus effect where the shape of the bokeh can be imported from an external layer.
Lens Transition Filter
BCC Lens Transition is a wipe filter that applies a lens blur or rack defocus effect to the specular highlights of outgoing and incoming image clips.
Particle Array 3D Filter
BCC Particle Array 3D creates a grid of particles oriented in 3D space.
Pin Art 3D Filter
BCC Pin Art 3D creates a pin board look based on a layer image.
Title Flare Shader
BCS Title Flare is a text generator that provides a quick and easy method to create titles. Text can be wiped on and off the screen in a variety of ways including with glows, rays, jitter, mist, noise, and vapor.
Luma Glow Shader
BCS Luma Glow is a real-time, OpenGL-accelerated filmic glow effect where the soft glow is defined by the luma values of the image.
Compare Mode
Added to over one-third of BCC 7 FxPlug's filters, Compare Mode is a convenient tool that enables users to compare the filtered result with the unfiltered source via either a side-by-side view or a live split-screen view. In the side-by-side view, users can view the unfiltered and filtered image result in the composite window as changes are made to the image. In the split-screen view, users can drag the wipe bar anywhere across the image to compare the filtered result with the unfiltered source at any zoom level. Additionally, the Compare Mode feature includes the unique ability to view the filtered result with a live filtered layer in the timeline.
Apple Motion Camera Support
BCC 7 FxPlug now supports native Motion camera integration for the BCC Extruded Image Shatter, BCC Particle Array 3D, and BCC Pin Art 3D filters - in addition to BCC FxPlug's 3D Objects filters.
Performance Gains
All BCC 7 FxPlug filters take advantage of either multi-processing or OpenGL hardware acceleration to deliver an interactive effects design experience.
