Transfer FCP Sequences to Avid Media Composer with Boris AAF
Play Video
Boris AAF Transfer is a custom Apple Final Cut Pro plug-in that lets you export AAF files from Final Cut Pro sequences for import into Avid Media Composer or Avid DS. Because the entire live FCP program sequence is transferred - with media, markers, cuts, dissolves, filters, and audio preserved - the transferred sequence can be edited and finished in the Media Composer or DS timeline without returning to FCP.

Audio-driven Effects with BCC 7 AE's Beat Reactor Technology
Play Video
In this video tutorial, Kevin P. McAuliffe takes a look at Boris Continuum Complete 7 AE's new Beat Reactor technology. Beat Reactor is a new BCC 7 AE filter that lets you sample specific bands of audio from a clip and uses the sampled audio levels to drive effect parameters. In addition to being available as a standalone BCC 7 AE filter, the new Beat Reactor technology has been added as a built-in feature for many other BCC 7 AE filters. Beat Reactor makes it easier to generate audio-driven effects such as adding a pulsing light, a glow, or even an image wipe that follows along with the beat of an audio track.

Save the Shot by Removing Unwanted Objects
Play Video
You have a perfect clip for the project. The scene is right, the weather is perfect, the camera move is nice, but there is a clearly-recognizable person walking across the street. And you do not have a release from that person or time to ask for one. Not to fear: you can still save the shot with Boris Continuum Complete's Motion Key tool.

Boris Continuum Complete 6 AE's Extruded EPS filter provides an easy way to import and extrude Adobe Illustrator layered vector logos and graphics in Adobe After Effects. The filter includes full integration with the After Effects 3D camera and lighting system and incorporates the same 3D material presets and free-form deformation properties of other BCC 6 AE 3D Objects filters. The filter is capable of tracking an EPS file using a Watch Folder, making the EPS file live should it be edited in Adobe Illustrator. A handy Keep EPS Color feature lets you preserve the original fill colors for each element as a diffuse color option of the material.

Stabilize Shaky Video Footage with BCC's Optical Stabilizer Filter
Play Video
The BCC Optical Stabilizer filter enables you to stabilize shaky video footage. The filter uses optical flow technology to determine the movement of the camera and then adjusts the clip's position to compensate. Depending upon filter parameter settings, the motion in the clip will either be smoothed or completely locked down. Unlike many other image stabilization tools, the BCC Optical Stabilizer does not require you to set user-defined tracking points. This is useful for images where tracking data is unreliable.
