It is a key advantage over most other effects. SpiceMASTER provides up to five types of adjustable softness -- use alone or blend them. Even for pure "cuts and dissolves" projects, SpiceMASTER's ultra-soft 'directional' dissolves can add a wonderfully subtle hint of movement or geometry to lead the viewer's eye. • Cutting-Edge Organic Effect Looks (PRO only). SM2.5 PRO's huge range of organic effects include bursts, climatics, plasmas, erosions, strokes, vapors, etc. These can be ideal for cutting-edge effect looks in music or sports videos, promotional work, multimedia, etc. Apply them as organic transitions or as organic animated mattes for OTHER effects in a clip (see below). • Customize/Animate Virtually ANY OTHER Video Effect. In seconds, you can easily control and animate where color changes, blurs, distortions, or ANY OTHER visual effects (built-in or 3rd-party) appear within a clip's image (as shown below) -- an VERY useful capability for a wide range of projects. • The Amazing New MIXER for FILM Dissolves & More (PRO only)Looking for a true film look? Even if you have a film-look plug-in for adding grain, you're not all of the way there without also being able to apply true FILM dissolves. SpiceMASTER 2.5 PRO solves that need and adds a terrific industry-first to this capability! Details • Unique Animated/Soft/Organic PIPs (PRO only). No longer must you limit PIP (picture-in-picture) effects to hard-edged rectangular looks. SpiceMASTER PRO can instead easily frame PIPs with a different shape, soft edge, glow, organic border, shadow, special texture, or numerous other treatments. You can even create PIPs with organic shapes that animate! • Soft/Organic Video Effects for Titles & Graphics (PRO only). SpiceMASTER PRO powerfully supplements your built-in titler or CG/title program. Reveal or hide titles, graphics, logos, lower-thirds, or backgrounds with a subtle, beautiful 'directional' dissolve or a flowing, organic, natural-looking edge. Blend and animate content, colors, highlights, effects, etc. WITHIN titles. Feather text rolls/crawls seamlessly as they enter or leave the frame, a graphic, a PIP, etc. to add a classy touch. • Complete Creative Control Over Your Transitions and Effects. For any of SpiceMASTER's hundreds of effects, customize the geometry, position, direction, speed, softness, organic edge, animation, border, glow, and shadow. The PRO version adds extra controls for rotation/spin, texture, borders, depth, bevel, ripples, etc. Never before has there been such customization to help you achieve that "just right" look. • Bezier Curve Keyframing to Accelerate/Decelerate. With bezier curve keyframing, smoothly accelerate/decelerate speed in SM2.5 TFX, or virtually ANY parameter in the PRO version. Such keyframing can be used, for example, to motion-track effects on a moving subject. Adding/adjusting is just a simple click and drag -- nothing complicated to learn! • Depth for Other Effects. SpiceMASTER can add photo-realistic shadows, glows, bevels, ripples, etc. to ANY OTHER effect/filter or key in a clip. Instant creative possibilities for showing layering and depth in your effects. • Real-time Previewing. SpiceMASTER previews REAL-TIME in its built-in preview (most computers) AND real-time from the timeline of Adobe Premiere Pro* and Sony Vegas Pro. * Certain RT video boards (i.e. Matrox) may require Premiere Pro settings that defeat Premiere's native real-time previewing. In that case, SpiceMASTER's built-in preview can be real-time.
