Publisher's description
From Digital Anarchy :Anarchy Toolbox is a set of nine tools that create a variety of sophisticated effects. These visuals include creative blurs, beautiful glows, gradients on a path, seamlessly tiled images, and warped graphics. Some are an intelligent version of functions that exist in After Effects, but are limited by their simple options and lack of parameter control. Other plug-ins don't exist yet in After Effects, and we figured it was about time they did. Use fractal noise, gradient strokes, Bezier paths, or multiple displacement maps to create interesting results like painterly images or lighting effects.
- Anarchist Edge produces glowing, painterly edge effects. It finds areas of contrasting colors and creates lines along the borders of those areas. Controls include adjusting the strength of the edge, its softness, and combining the result with the underlying image via transfer modes.
- Designer Blur creates a blur effect using a pre-defined shape or a grayscale map that you define. As the underlying image blurs, the pixels take on the blur kernel shape, which then blends with the other shapes around it, producing interesting painterly or lighting effects.
- Path Distort allows you to distort an image, like an imported bitmap or pre-comped layer, in the shape of a Bezier path. Options include having the image take up only a portion of the path, animating the image along the path, or animating the path to warp/distort the image.
- Gradient Path allows you to wrap a gradient around a Bezier path. Its uses include color effects around strokes and masks; backgrounds based on mask shapes. custom glow effects; control when creating mattes; and custom grayscale maps for other filters (like our new Designer Blur).
- Noise Complex is a fractal noise filter for which you can decide the rate of change, amount of change, and even control the noise using grayscale maps. Use this filter not just for Noise effects, but more powerfully as a source layer for other filters that use grayscale maps (like After Effects' Mosaic filter).
- Smooth Tiler seamlessly tiles images that were not designed to seamlessly tile. This is accomplished by blending opposite edges, which gives the appearance of a smooth transition.
- ReSizer provides a dozen different algorithms for intelligently resizing footage and images. You are no longer limited to Draft and Best Quality, or to the built-in Transform properties of a layer.
- Advanced Displacement Map gives you unlimited flexibility for creating displacement effects. You can combine up to 3 different grayscale maps to create distortions or stunning natural effects, such as fire or water.
- Color Sampler provides a way of sampling an image at a specified point and getting the color value that's there. This can be amazingly useful when the plug-in is used with expressions.
