Descriptions

RE:Map is a set of 5 plugins:

• RE:Map UV takes a UV Map, probably rendered from a 3D system, and renders an image using this mapping. Easily clean up texture maps and remap in post without having to go back to your 3D system for re-rendering. In addition, this plugin allows you you to come up with cool 2D and 3D animated texture map templates and reuse them over again with different image sequences.

• RE:Map Inverse UV takes a UV Map and a color image that matches that UV Map, and inversely projects the color image to a rectangular image that may then be used to texture the UV Map with RE:Map UV, or for use as a texture map for your 3D system.

• RE:Map Distort takes a color image and automatically distorts the image based on the features for a caricature-like effect.

• RE:Map Displace warps an image with a user-supplied displacement map. This plugin includes many more options and advanced filtering controls than most other displacement map filters.

• RE:Map Planar maps or inverse maps a perspective plane defined by 4 points (also known as corner pinning).

Features

General RE:Map Features

• 8 and 16 bits per channel processing (only 8 bits per channel supported within Final Cut Pro). Floating point image support for After Effects 7.0 and up.
• High quality filtering of images which includes supersampling and mipmapping

RE:Map UV Features

• Requires 16 bit per channel or floating point support from host application.
• Reapply new texture sequences in order to reuse animated UV maps for cool animations and transitions.
• Adjust, color correct, edit, then reapply your textures for your 3D animated objects without having to rerender in the 3D system.
• Advanced feature to deal with antialiased UV edges and areas where a section of an object crosses another part of the object.

RE:Map Inverse UV Features

• Requires 16 bit per channel or floating point support from host application.
• Paint or align textures in 2D to match your 3D rendered image and inversely project the image to make a texture map for use in your 3D system or with RE:Map UV.

RE:Map Distort Features

• Automatic distortion of features in an image for a caricature effect.

RE:Map Planar Features

• Provides much better results than the corner pinning found in most applications, with high quality filtering.
• Inverse corner pinning which enables you to work in a non-perspective space on your live-action sources.

RE:Map Displace Features

• Requires 16 bit per channel support from host application.
• Multiple passes available for smearing and feedback effects.
• Both forward and inverse displacement filtering provided, giving different but equally interesting results.

Examples

Scratch RemovalAutomatic Distortion

• Map 1

Automaitc distortion for a caricature effect is shown.

Sky ReplacementAutomatic Distortion

• Map 2

Another automatic distortion is demonstrated

Interesting EffectFeedback Option

• Map 3

Automatic distortion with feedback option.

Source Options

• Map 4

Automatic distortion using another source movie to control the distortion (see lower left corner for water droplet distortion source).

UV Mapping in Post

• Map 5

UV mapping in post demonstrated. UV map (with red and green gradients) rendered as a separate pass from a 3D system then rendering with RE:Map UV.

UV Mapping in Post II

• Map 6

The same UV map that was used in the previous example is used again here with a different texture map.
