New Products at NAB include Cartoon Look Package and Creative Effects Package
Finally, a cartooning effects package that delivers as expected. ToonIt! 1.0 will reliably and easily create cartoon-like images from video footage, photographs and still images. ToonIt! uses advanced algorithms from Toonamation to create cartoon shading and lines. Customize the 'toon' effect for almost any image with styles like Flat Cartoon, Graphic Novel, Line Art, and Pen & Ink. ToonIt! frees artists from time consuming techniques such as hand painting, rotoscoping and Action sets. Digital Anarchy will preview two packages, one for video/motion applications like After Effects and Final Cut Pro and a second for Photoshop.
PlasmaFX: Creative Effects at Lightning Speed
PlasmaFX 1.0 is a collection of powerful, fast effects that create a variety of custom effects ranging from image processing to film looks and particle systems. PlasmaFX plugins are based on Apple's Core Image system and FxPlug architecture, and take full advantage of new, multi-core CPUs and enhanced graphics cards. The filters run and render very quickly within Apple native applications like Final Cut Pro and Motion, and are also supported in After Effects.
Other new Digital Anarchy products include version 3.0 of Primatte Chromakey for Photoshop. This robust update adds more automation features, an improved interface, and new support for OS and host applications.
