RE:Flex for Mac

From RE:Vision Effects, Inc.:

Creates visually stunning morphs and warps with an easy-to-use interface. RE:Flex brings intuitive morphing and warping directly to After Effects! Superior results are achieved using RE:Vision Effects' proprietary and sophisticated technology. RE:Flex is especially easy to learn because it uses After Effects' own drawing and masking tools to direct the warping and morphing; as such, there is no need to learn a whole new user interface. RE:Flex consists of two plugins, RE:Flex Warp and RE:Flex Morph. Features common to both plugins:

• Warping is directed through After Effects mask geometries (splines and polylines), not through a grid of mesh points!
• Geometries need not be closed shapes
• Smooth non-polygonal warping
• Matching geometries do not need to have the same number of control points
• Interactive warping is accomplished through After Effects' interactive preview feature
• 8 and 16 bits per channel support

• Warping is directed using sets of "from" geometries and "to" geometries at each frame
• The amount of warping can be specified and animated

• "Key images" are placed by the user along the timeline
• Morphing occurs by creating a set of geometry on the first key image, then moving the set to corresponding places on each of the successive key images
• Inbetween key images, the user can animate the geometries in order to achieve a non-constant speed of morphing
• Linear cross-dissolving of the warped images inbetween key images completes the morph
• If only one key image is specified, the user can animate a picture into motion using a single set of geometry

  What's new in this version:

  • Current version is 2.3 for both the After Effects-compatible and Shake versions.
  • Due to the nature of the warping algorithms, users will see the most benefit of MP support on an MP machine when "Accumulate Folds" for RE:Flex is checked.
  • Fixed a bug that caused RE:Flex to crash when spline vertices were too close to each other.
  • for combustion 3, added support for more interactivity. When combustion's "Feedback" button is checked, RE:Flex now pays attention to... See all new features
