Boris FX Adds Major Speed Improvements and Functionality to Continuum 2019 and Particle Illusion

27/02/2019

--

The most comprehensive plug-in collection on the market keeps getting better. Continuum 2019 (12.0.1) is a significant update to the award-winning product line from Boris FX. Editors and VFX artists already praising the addition of Continuum 2019's new Particle Illusion real-time motion graphics generator can now produce high-end animations with far speedier results and design flexibility.

Continuum 2019 (12.0.1) is a free update for Adobe, Avid, and OFX users who previously purchased the 2019 version. The update also includes new host support for Apple's FCP X and Motion 5 on macOS Mojave with new licenses, upgrades, and annual subscription options starting at only $195.

We're constantly looking for ways to improve our products to provide the post-production community with the fastest, most powerful plug-ins that help get the job done - and well, says Boris Yamnitsky, President and Founder, Boris FX. The new Continuum 2019 (12.0.1) release includes a huge Particle Illusion performance boost especially on long clips and new emitter editing capabilities that give users more control and creative freedom when designing motion graphics.

Yamnitsky continues, We've also added Apple FCP X and Motion 5 support to Continuum 2019 as part of our unwavering commitment to delivering the most comprehensive video application support on the market. FCP X editors will enjoy faster render speeds and over 35 new easy-to-use titling and transition templates.

I'm so excited about the rebirth of Particle Illusion. With hundreds of high-quality presets that ship with the plug-in, it's so easy to be up and running and adding particle systems to your projects, states Benjamin Eshagpoor, Creative Director, beMOTION.dESIGN. And if that wasn't enough, it's CPU and GPU agnostic which is a fancy way of saying that it's blazing fast no matter what graphics card or computer you're using. I can now composite particle systems into 4K footage on a 2012 MacBook Pro and render out within minutes it's remarkably fast!

New in Continuum 2019 (12.0.1):

Particle Illusion: Adds major performance improvements both in rendering and within the interface itself; new properties group allows users to edit nearly all applied emitter settings including color, color gradient, alpha gradient, etc; adds tool tips and particle count to stage view; new preference option allows user to decide whether or not clicking on stage automatically adds an emitter. (Particle Illusion is available in both Continuum 2019 and the Particle Unit.)

16 New Particle Emitter 3D Presets including photorealistic drifting dust and snow

Apple FCP X and Motion 5 Support: Includes 20 new title templates, 19 new transition templates, and rendering performance improvements. Compatible with macOS Mojave.

Title Studio Improvements: Adds center cut title safe and action safe zones, improved C4D support, improved render quality and interactivity in Material Panel.

Enhanced External Broadcast Monitor Support: The FX Browser and Title Studio include support for external/client/broadcast monitor previews (Blackmagic Design and AJA) from a custom UI window.
