News a Safe Harbor blog Boris FX to Exhibit at NAB 2005 0 Posted by Safe Harbor Staff February 7, 2005 If you enjoy this post, please share it! Boris FX, the leading developer of integrated effects technology for video and film, will demonstrate new solutions including Boris Blue and Volume II of Boris Continuum Complete for Discreet Sparks at NAB 2005. The latest Boris FX solutions will be demonstrated at booth SL4045, as well as the Avid Partner Pavilion, booth SL1210A. Boris solutions are also included as part of the second annual NAB Post|Production World Conference. Boris Blue is a real-time 3D compositing and motion graphics solution based on the award-winning Boris Red plug-in. This standalone application allows you to instantly preview on a client monitor without previewing to RAM, regardless of the complexity of the 3D scene or materials. Adjust on-screen controls and parameter sliders in real time. (Some previously released filters may still require software-based rendering.) The initial release will support Windows only. Macintosh support will be added in a future release. Create stunning looks by combining innovative "pixel shaders" with bump maps, noise patterns or natural materials along with light reflections and 3D shadows. Powerful OpenGL vertex shaders let you warp 3D objects with a simple one-parameter action. Bend and twist corners or wrap extruded text around curves. Define a custom curve to create highly detailed bevels with common spline drawing tools. You can also combine multiple curves to create unique designs or match existing requirements. Create real-time particle effects by free hand tracing paths on screen. Create unique looks by combining multiple shapes including 3D models. Integrate with other 3D applications by importing models saved in common 3D file formats. Tap into a vast collection of shareware objects or choose from a selection of 3D models included with Boris Blue. Volume II of Boris Continuum Complete for Discreet Sparks will premiere at NAB. This comprehensive suite of native filters extends the capabilities of Discreet Inferno®, Flame®, Flint®, Fire®, and Smoke® systems. This IRIX-based addition to the Continuum product line is based on Discreet’s Sparks architecture, an advanced Application Programming Interface (API) for developing custom plug-ins. A version for the Linux operating system will be introduced. This version will also add support for Burn™, Discreet's Linux-based network processing solution that can render images in the background using low-cost PC workstations. Also shown at NAB 2005, will be Boris Continuum Complete AVX (BCC AVX) running on AVX 2.0, the latest version of the effects plug-in architecture developed by Avid Technology, Inc. AVX plug-ins dynamically extend the visual effects supported by Avid nonlinear editing solutions. BCC AVX is a comprehensive suite of native plug-in filters and transitions designed to streamline workflow for users of Avid nonlinear editing systems. BCC AVX is bundled with all Avid® Media Composer® Adrenaline™ systems and is available as an optional plug-in for other Avid systems. The BCC AVX filter set includes more than 160 sophisticated filters such as Lens Flare, DeGrain, Match Grain, DeInterlace, Optical Flow, Motion Blur, Wire Remover, and Witness Protection. With the release of AVX 2.0, users will have access to Avid’s advanced keyframing model. Instead of being limited to 8-bit, the filters will offer 16-bit color depth. The PixelChooser option that lets users create an animatable vector-based mask will include bézier handles for more precise control. 0 responses to "Boris FX to Exhibit at NAB 2005" Leave a comment You can use select BBCode tags to format your thoughts including: [b], [i], [s], [u], [url], [quote] and [code].
