Adds plug-in support for Adobe CS3 Professional, expanded hardware support for a range of ATI cardsMarlborough MA March 26, 2008 - Boris FX, the leading developer of integrated effects technology for video and film, announced that
Boris Blue version 2.5 is now available. In addition to offering a standalone and Avid AVX plug-in, the 3D motion graphics solution Boris Blue now offers plug-in support for Adobe CS3 Professional running on Windows XP. Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro users can create with unprecedented speed a wide range of professional grade 3D effects; including high quality - extruded text and extruded EPS import as well as 3D model import complete with 3D cameras and lights, cast ray-traced shadows, bump maps and reflections.
"The television commercial work I produce for clients typically has a very tight turn around for deadlines. I often find I can browse the settings library bundled with Blue and modify one or more of the presets to design a unique 3D effect or transition quickly," comments Rob Lackmeyer, Computer\Video Specialists, Inc. "Blue integrates seamlessly into the editing timeline, which greatly speeds up my effects workflow. The end result - I can offer my clients amazing 3D work on a 2D budget."
Within the Adobe Premiere Pro editor, Boris Blue appears as a filter, a single track transition effect, and can also be used to generate a composition clip. In Adobe After Effects Boris Blue is available as a filter capable of utilizing up to 7 tracks from the After Effects timeline as video inputs.
"Boris FX has been developing high-quality plug-in solutions for Adobe Premiere and After Effects since 1995," comments Boris Yamnitsky, founder and president, Boris FX. "For the first time we were able to package Open GL accelerated 3D modeling and rendering in Adobe-style plug-in. We are looking forward to showcasing the new Boris Blue 2.5 integrated with Adobe CS3 Professional at NAB 2008 (booth SL8720)."
Blue 2.5 also extends hardware support to many ATI graphics boards in addition to the many NVIDIA based graphics boards already supported by Boris Blue. This enables a wider range of editors and designers to add Boris Blue to their motion graphics workflow.
