Boris FX Mocha Pro 2020 Releases New Tools For Advanced Visual Effects and Clean-Up Tasks

08/10/2019

--

The latest release of the Academy Award-winning planar tracking toolset, Boris FX Mocha Pro 2020, delivers major time-saving benefits to visual effects artists tasked with the often complicated set extensions, clean-ups, and object removals needed to bring Hollywood's biggest blockbusters to life. Mocha Pro 2020 is now available as both a standalone application and as a plug-in for the post-production industry's most popular host applications including Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro, Avid Media Composer, Autodesk Flame, Foundry Nuke, and many more.

Mocha Pro 2020 not only helps VFX artists deliver high-end results in less time, but it also offers video editors and colorists simple new workflows for everyday VFX tasks such as isolating effects and replacing screens. The Mega Plate feature is an evolution of our planar tracking engine, now developed to generate a stitched panorama effects plate from a moving shot, says Ross Shain, Chief Product Officer, Boris FX. This opens up a powerful and unique new workflow for artists to generate a larger-than-raster extended canvas for retouching, set extensions, matte painting, sky replacements, and object removal.

Editors and finishing artists working on tight deadlines will love the new Area Brush paint tool for its speed and ease of use, continues Shain. And advanced effects artists will appreciate how Mocha's new pressure-sensitive paint and stroke-to-spline conversion is combined with edge-snapping for greater roto and masking flexibility. And finally, the addition of OpenColorIO support ensures a proper color-managed workflow for consistent display across feature film and television post-production pipelines.

Mocha's tracking and effects tools have long been acknowledged by professionals in the film and broadcast industry for their quality, speed, and impact. The Mocha development team, first recognized by the Academy of Motion Pictures in 2013 with a Scientific and Engineering Academy Award, will be honored next with an Engineering Emmy Award from the Television Academy on October 23, 2019.
