Your Swiss Army Knife for VFX
3D Objects
The Boris Continuum 3D Objects Unit features 5 powerful visual effects filters that make it easy to create 3D objects using text and shapes.
The Extruded Text filter allows you to create stunning 3D text elements and use the AE native camera and lighting system to generate fly-throughs or to animate the viewer around the generated 3D text models. Extruded EPS provides an easy way to import and extrude Adobe Illustrator layered vector logos and graphics in Adobe After Effects. With Type-on Text, you will be able to create animated text type-ons that fly in from behind or toward the camera or slide into view from the top, left, bottom, or right of the screen either letter-by-letter, word-by-word, or line-by-line. Extruded Spline generates and extrudes shapes from any AE-generated mask shape or shapes using the built-in AE pen path tool, as well as imported vector art from Adobe Illustrator. Layer Deformer generates useful 3D shapes such as planes, cubes, spheres, and cylinders and deforms these 3D objects using built-in vertex and pixel shaders.
Art Looks
The Boris Continuum Art Looks Unit includes a selection of art-style filters such as Cartoon Look, Pencil Sketch, Watercolor, and Halftone, with each filter giving a distinct artistic bent to the image. Whether you are going for the "Charles Schwab" look or if you would like your image to resemble a living watercolor painting, this Unit has it all. Each filter includes customizable preset looks and styles that will help "jump start" your creativity and save you from time-consuming tasks such as hand-painting and rotoscopting.
Blur Sharpen
The Boris Continuum Blur and Sharpen Unit adds a collection of blur and sharpen filters to your image processing arsenal. These plug-ins emulate a lens blur defocus/rack focus effect where out-of-focus highlights of a video clip take on the shape of the lens diaphragm. The Z-Blur option allows editors to achieve a stylized depth-of-field look where a certain area of a clip remains sharp and clear while the remaining area is slightly out-of-focus. And Unsharp Mask brings detail back to an already-soft image that you may have thought you lost forever. Each filter is multi-processor accelerated for fast performance.
Color Tone
The Boris Continuum Color and Tone Unit provides professional grade color grading tools as well as videoscope monitoring to ensure that your colors are safe. BCC 3 Way Color Grade lets you indep
