[edit]

[edit]

Time Effects

  • Feedback - The previous frames of the input clip are transformed and combined with the current frame to give a variety of effects inspired by video feedback.
  • FeedbackBubble - The previous frames of the input clip are distorted by a solid noise pattern, transformed, and combined with the current frame to give a variety of possible effects.
  • FeedbackDistort - Generates time based feedback effects while distorting the trails using a second input clip.
  • FieldRemove - Adaptively removes video field interlacing artifacts from areas with motion, without blurring the stationary parts of the image.
  • FreezeFrame - Freezes motion for each duration of Freeze Frames. For example if Freeze Frames is 5 and the source frames are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11... the output frames would be: 1 1 1 1 1 6 6 6 6 6 11... On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • GetFrame - Retrieves a specified frame from the source clip for each destination frame.
  • JitterFrames - Each output frame receives a random frame between the current frame plus and minus the Jitter Frame Dist.
  • MotionDetect - For each frame, finds the difference between the frame and a frame before it. On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • NearestColor - Collects pixel colors from the input clip's frames that are closest to the given Match Color.
  • RandomEdits - Randomly re?edits the entire source clip.
  • ReverseClip - Reverses the frame order of a clip, and optionally also reverses the fields of each frame. On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • ReverseEdits - Independently reverses segments of the input clip. For example if Edit Frame Length is 5, and the input clip frames are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11... the output frames would be: 5 4 3 2 1 10 9 8 7 6 15... On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • TimeAverage - Each output frame is the average of multiple input frames: from the current frame, back to a given number of previous frames.
  • TimeDisplace - Displaces the Source clip by variable amounts in time depending on the brightness values of a Matte input. On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • TimeSlice - Divides the output frame into slices, where each slice receives a different frame from the source clip. On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • TimeWarpRGB - Shifts the red, green, and blue channels in time by different amounts, to give a temporal chroma distortion. On AE, this effect should be applied directly to a clip because any prior effects on the same clip will be ignored.
  • Trails - The previous frames of the input clip are combined with the current frame to give a variety of 'time trails' effects.
  • TrailsDiffuse - The previous frames of the input clip are processed with a pixel diffusion process and then combined with the current frame.
[edit]

Flicker Tools

  • Flicker - Scales the colors of the source clip by different amounts over time for a flickering effect.
  • FlickerMatch - Adds flicker to the Source clip using the flicker from a second Match clip.
  • FlickerMatchColor - Adds color changes to the Source clip using the color changes from a second Match clip.
  • FlickerMatchMatte - Adds flicker to the Source clip using the flicker from a second Match clip, in the areas specified by a Matte.
  • FlickerMchMatteColor - Adds color changes to the Source clip using the color changes from a second Match clip, in the areas specified by a Matte.
  • FlickerRemove - Removes temporal flickering from the Source clip. For example, old footage with uneven exposure times can be smoothed out with this effect.
  • FlickerRemoveColor - Removes temporal color changes from the Source clip.
  • FlickerRemoveMatte - Removes temporal flickering from the Source clip using a Matte clip to specify the area where the average brightness should remain constant.
  • FlickerRmMatteColor - Removes temporal color changes from the Source clip using a Matte clip to specify the area where the average color should remain constant.
[edit]

Dissolve Transitions

  • DissolveBlur - Transitions between two inputs clips while blurring each.
  • DissolveBubble - Transitions between two input clips using a bubble warping function. The first clip is warped away and faded out while the second clip is unwarped into place and faded in.
  • DissolveDiffuse - Transitions between two input clips by scrambling the pixels of the inputs within an area determined by Max Amount.
  • DissolveFilm - Performs a transition in a film-like color space to preserve highlights during the dissolve.
  • DissolveGlow - Performs a transition while adding glow to both clips.
  • DissolveLuma - Transitions between two input clips using a pattern derived from their luminances.
  • DissolvePuddle - Transitions between two input clips while warping by a circular pattern of waves. The first clip is warped away and faded out while the second clip is unwarped into place and faded in.
