The Benefits of adding Boris FX 5.0 PROFESSIONAL to AVID AVX Systems Boris FX 5.0 PROFESSIONAL integrates seamlessly into Avid systems on Power Macintosh or Windows NT. Boris FX 5.0 PROFESSIONAL advanced keying and matte choker capabilities allow editors to create more complex effects than Avid’s Intraframe™ editing option and cleaner high quality effects than Avid’s hardware DVE solution.
Higher Quality rendering for DVEs
Higher Quality Imaging Render using full scene anti-aliasing and sub-pixel positioning which exceeds even the best high-end NLE hardware solutions.
More Advanced Chroma Keying with Matte Choker
Keying and matte controls Advanced Chroma keying with spill suppression preserves shadows and transparency in the foreground objects. Boris FX 5.0’s timeline nesting capabilities can then combine the output of the chroma key with Matte Choker and post-key color correction filters for perfect keying. Avid’s built in keyer has no matte choker capabilities and does not allow you to view the matte channel.
Flexible Keyframe Animation graphs per parameter
Animates Soft drop shadows on any image
Animation Graphs Control every parameter with extensive keyframe animation graphs. Place a keyframe at any point in the effect, adjust bezier controls for precise animation control. Boris FX 5.0 provides six interpolation methods: Constant, linear, hold, accelerate, decelerate and ease in/ease out for smooth motion. This provides a more powerful animation feature for Avid systems, which cannot place Key frames on a parameter and have no Bezier animation graphs.
Soft Drop Shadows and Borders Animate the softness, distance, angle, color, and opacity of drop shadows for each image. A variety of soft-edged borders can be created as well. The user of soft drop shadows is critical to any production work that this capability alone is worth the price for adding Boris FX to Avid NLE systems
Import large graphic files for creating camera pans on still frames
Pan and zoom on large imported graphics Because Boris FX 5.0 is a plug-in application it has extensive import capabilities. Images or graphic files which are larger than the television raster can be imported and panned for creating camera moves on still images. This is the only way to gain resolution independence inside the Avid system.
Faster, scalable resolution previews for faster interaction Increased performance through scalable resolution
Unlike other AVX plug-ins or Avid’s built in effects, Boris FX offers scalable resolution previews for faster effects creation. Other effects react very slowly to adjustments because Avid can not drop resolution and must render full frames for each preview. Scalable previews are critical when building complex composites with multiple layers or sophisticated single filter effects.
Propagate alpha channels throughout a composite
Alpha pass through on multi layers compositions Boris FX allows you to layer and composite using alpha channels. Each layer can have rotation, scaling and filter effects applied independent of other layers or the background.
Benefits of Boris FX 5.0 for Adobe Premiere Boris FX adds advanced DVE capabilities and a unique set of features to the Premiere non-linear editing environment.
Higher Quality Imaging Higher Quality rendering for DVEs
Render using full scene anti-aliasing and sub-pixel positioning which exceeds even the best high-end NLE hardware solutions. New 3D graphics DVEs provide poor image quality and jaggy edges. Only Boris FX 5.0 provides a high quality render engine with professional results
3D Rotations and shape distortions A complete 3D DVE solution for video effects creation
Smooth Key Frames using Ease in/Ease Out
Wider range of useful effects
More Advanced Chroma Keying with post key color correction
Pixel Chooser for spot color correction
Animate 3D position, rotation and shape distortions with independent interpolation methods, for creating natural looking curvilinear effects. Tumble, spin and rotate objects with true perspective distortions. Create 3D geometric shapes with full alpha support including Page turns, Spheres and Cylinders that can unwrap to full screen for transitional effects.
Unlimited Key Frames and Animation Graphs Control every parameter with extensive keyframe controls. Place a keyframe at any point in the effect, adjust Bezier animation graphs for precise control or simply click ease in/ease out for automatic smooth motion. Anything for a simple dissolve to a multi-layered composite can be key framed to perfection.
Over 40 Effect filters and DVE shapes Boris FX 5.0 is a complete application with a wide range of effects. 3D DVE effects include high quality page turns, ripples and complete XYZ 3D transforms. Every track can use a crop with soft edges or an external upstream/downstream mask source. More extensive filter effects provide animateable directional blurs, key frameable color correction and fantastic particle effects with gravity controls all within one plug-in application.
Keying and matte controls Advanced Chroma keying with spill suppression preserves shadows and transparency in the foreground objects. Boris FX 5.0’s timeline nesting capabilities can then combine the output of the chroma key with post-key color correction filters for perfect keying. Other Plug-in solutions for Premiere are more costly, more complicated to learn or only provide basic Keying. Boris FX is a complete Plug-In application with a number of other features.
Color Correction and Color Effects
effects
Unique Pixel Chooser technology for specifying the value of an image to be affected by any filter. TBC-style color correction, posterization, RGB adjustments all for creating original color effects and touch up.
Benefits of Boris FX 5.0 PROFESSIONAL for Media 100 & iFinish Boris FX 5.0 PROFESSIONAL integrates seamlessly into Media 100 and Media 100 iFinish systems. Boris FX 5.0 adds 3D DVE capabilities and a complete effects application inside the Media 100 and iFinish systems. There’s no importing or exporting needed to create simple directional blurs or complex composites.
Multi layered Timeline for compositing
Multiple layers of video compositing
A complete 3D DVE solution for video effects creation
3D Rotations with motion blur
Smooth Key Frames using Ease in/Ease Out
Wider range of useful effects
Boris FX 5.0 is the only solution for multi-layered compositing and animation inside your Media 100. Boris FX 5.0 provides unlimited video and graphics layers with timeline nesting and new 3D containers. A and B tracks from Media 100 and iFinish can be combined with imported graphics and Movie files for multi layered DVE and compositing effects.
Animate 3D position, rotation and light cources with independent interpolation methods and motion blur for creating natural looking effects. Tumble, spin and rotate objects with true perspective distortions. Create 3D geometric shapes with full alpha support including Page turns, Spheres and Cylinders that can unwrap to full screen for transitional effects.
