Final Effects Complete 6 AE supports Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro CS5, CS4, and CS3 under 64-bit and 32-bit Macintosh and Windows operating systems.

Key Features:-

Support for Native After Effects Lights
Many popular FEC AE filters such as Mr. Mercury, Bubbles, Ball Action, Hair, and Glue Gun now include support for Adobe After Effects' native lights, allowing users to create dramatic scene lighting


Beat Reactor Technology
Beat Reactor lets you sample specific bands of audio from a clip and use the sampled audio levels to drive FEC effect parameters. This new technology makes it easier to generate audio-driven effects such as a pulsing light or a wipe that follows along with the beat of an audio track.


Compare Mode
Added to many FEC 6 AE filters, Compare Mode lets you compare the filtered result with the unfiltered source via either a side-by-side view or a live split-screen view. In the side-by-side view, you can view the unfiltered and filtered image result in the composite window as changes are made to the image. In the split-screen view, you can drag the wipe bar anywhere across the image to compare the filtered result with the unfiltered source at any zoom level. Additionally, Compare Mode offers the unique ability to view the filtered result with a live filtered layer in the timeline.
Customizable Animated Presets

This unique feature lets you save and re-use every parameter animation in every FEC 6 AE filter - even across host applications and platforms. The animated presets are saved in industry-standard XML format so that they can be viewed and edited by any XML-compliant text editor.

On-Screen Overlay Control Widgets
The most commonly-used parameters in many FEC AE filters are now accessible via native on-screen overlay widgets, each with dynamic parameter value displays that update automatically as the widget is adjusted. Color-coded and easy to use, the new widgets allow parameter adjustments while the editor's eye remains focused on the image.

New Super Dissolve Filter
FEC Super Dissolve offers a unique dissolve look with a slight contrast boost in the middle to counter the loss of contrast present in a regular dissolve. The filter includes transfer modes and levels gamma controls; lots of different intermediate states are possible.

New RGB Dissolve Filter
FEC RGB Dissolve is a dissolve with independent control over the timing of the 3 channels. By default, the filter dissolves red first, then green, and then blue. Less extreme settings (where the 3 channels are slightly out of phase) also produce interesting and unique effects.

New Rectangular Scale Wipe Filter
FEC Rectangular Scale Wipe is a Wipe/PIP effect that provides a range of shapes and distortions to reveal an incoming image.

Significant Performance Gains
Every FEC 6 AE filter has been optimized for improved rendering speed on modern computing platforms.

The CG-350 is an extremely powerful titling program designed especially for the live broadcast and video post production environment. It comes with a very flexible, easy to use, Title Compose program for creating high quality title pages . Once the title pages have been composed, they can be displayed automatically or completely under Manual Control.

A display list can be created ahead of time to make on air usage a simple, one keystroke operation, or you can randomly select the title pages while on air. Even with a display list, you still maintain the flexibility for those last minute changes.

CG-350 can also be used to display standard format graphic images as well as text animation sequences. Text animations sequences are created by the title composer using the text FX features. Title pages, graphic images and text animation sequences can be freely intermixed with one another in any order.

Title pages can contain Text, background colour boxes, geometric shapes, full colour graphic images as logos, and either a background graphic or background video. The text is created using truetype typefaces and can be sized, kerned, rotated, and italicised. Each character can have up to two edges and three shadows. The character's edges and shadows can be colorised with a solid colour, a vertical colour spread, a colour gradient (4pt, 5pt, or linear), or textures.

Media Catalogues
The Media Catalogue is divided into three groups based upon the type of images that the software can display. These are titles, text animations, and graphic images.
These images can be quickly added to the Display List Editor to create a display list.

Digieffects are keeping only the best effects from the original Delirium package. And, they're adding some new ones.

Originally developed in 1999, the award-winning Delirium is used by tens of thousands of video professionals worldwide. This is the plugin collection that established the standard for essential visual effects and motion graphics capabilities.
Delirium v2 will continue to be a staple in the toolboxes of motion graphics and visual effects artists the world over. Now with 45 effects, this set has helped drive the edge of post production since its introduction and this visual effects favorite continues to add flexibility for new users every day.

Upgrades and new features in Version 2 include:

• 64 bit compatible
  
• 32 bits per channel
  
• Added Walker Effects plugins
  
• Speed Optimizations
  
• New Textures
  
• New presets and project files

Digieffects Damage harnesses the destructive power of lame rabbit ears, bad BNC cables, tree branch-obstructed satellite dishes, poorly tracking VHS machines, scratched DVDs, low fidelity security cameras, micro-datarate cell phones...the list goes on.

Blockade: Video acquired by low fidelity devices like cellular phones and PDAs is becoming more commonplace. Blockade makes your clip look like it is highly compressed and being transmitted through a very bandwidth-limited pipe. Areas of subtle colour subsample aliasing blocks blending with frame stuttering mimic low data rate rate video acquisition devices. Essential for simulating internet based micro cam display or personal video communication.

Artifact: Developed to create digital defects, Artifact simulates lost DCT blocks and frame dropping, most often seen when a digital video file suffers from corruption or a satellite feed is hampered by weather. If you've ever experienced these kinds of defects, you'll instantly recognise them. Make sure you warn clients and your house engineer that it's only an effect.

Interference: If it's television you want, traditionally you'll need some sort of interlaced field scanning to achieve that sense of broadcast video. Interference creates the look of interlaced video fields, even on progressive footage or still images, adding noise, colorisation and offset separately for each field. Interference will make any footage superimposed on CRTs in your scenes instantly more credible.

Skew: This effect was named after a VTR control of the same name and for those of you who know what control that is, be careful about acknowledging it, as you may be dating yourself. The never-ending quest to aim the rabbit ears so that the television show looks as good once you're in your chair as it did when your hands were attached to the antenna is fast fading into the lore of old. That valuable (if under-appreciated) look is preserved in Skew. Uniquely analog/broadcast image badness like noise, image shearing, ghosts... it's all there. The DTV revolution would eliminate these sorts of problems.

Please Note: Digieffects software plug-ins support Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro and Autodesk Combustion. All of our software is cross-platform and when customers purchase a Digieffects application the serial number can be used on either a Mac or Windows operating system (or both at the same time).

Depth Cue is a set of plug-ins that adds realistic depth effects to 3D layers. Each effect works on a 3D layer and changes based on the location of the layer, lights, and cameras in 3D space.

Included with Buena Depth Cue are 5 plug-in effects including:

• 3D Composite:
  Allows 2D footage with a depth channel, such as you might generate in Maya, 3D Studio Max, or other 3D applications, to interact with After Effects' 3D layers.
  
• Depth:
  Displays the depth of each layer in grayscale for use as a gradient map with other plugins, or with other applications.
  
• Falloff Lighting:
  Lights your layers realistically. Layers farther away from lights are illuminated less than those near lights.
  
• Fog:
  Shrouds your layers in a light haze or a deep, murky mist. Objects farther away from the camera have more fog applied to them than objects close to the camera.
  
• Rack Focus:
  Produces realistic depth of field effects and focus pulls, including simulating boke and anamorphic lens effects.
  
• Camera Mapper:
  Turn 2D stills and footage into 3D scenes right in After Effects. It works by projecting parts of your 2D footage onto 3D solids in a composition, then rendering the composition from different angles.
  
• Flipside:
  Maps one layer onto the back side of another layer. This allows you to flip the front layer over to reveal the back layer. It does this without creating any gap between the 2 layers, and without the occlusion problems that sometimes show up when trying to put 2 layers very close together in a composition

A pack of 20 award-winning special effects plug-ins including StarField, FogBank, VanGoughist and Laser. Berserk is an awesome set of incredibly useful and creative After Effects tools

While After Effects users have demonstrated that the program is capable of creating almost anything, they are often limited by the source footage they have. Aurorix provides some interesting texture and pattern generation filters such as Soap Film and Strange Nebulae. Unique distortion filters such as Infinity Warp and Turbulent Flow can use existing footage to make original patterns as well.

Aurorix also comes with some tools for simulating lighting, including the 3D Lighting filter that can also add bump maps for an embossed look. Finally, Aurorix includes Aged Film, the filter for adding grain, hair, dust, and discoloration to footage, which eventually went on to spawn DigiEffects popular Cinelook.

In extended desktop mode resolutions of 3840x1080 can easily be supported (as can portrait mode operation).

Unattended operation capabilities are supported with BIOS options for ‘boot on power up’, ‘boot after power fail’, Wake-on-LAN, RTC wake up (turn on at specific times of day).

For data transfer the SWEP-HD+ features gigabit Ethernet and 4 USB 2.0 ports.

Digital Signage Web Server Technology
SWEP (Sedao Web Enabled Player) is a complete, web based, content and user administration system pre-installed on the SWEP-HD+.

Once an ImageFlyer presentation, or folder of presentations, is loaded on to the SWEP HD+ (either locally or via a network connection) you simply direct the SWEP software at the presentations and set up which users are allowed to update which elements of your presentations.

If you only want a user to be able to login (via a standard web browser) and change a welcome message then that’s all they can do. It’s so easy that training staff on how to change a simple welcome message should take no more than 30 seconds. If you want your staff to be able to upload new photos, movies or schedule layouts it is equally easy.

Pre-installed Software
As well as SWEP the HD+ comes pre-installed with a selection of ImageFlyer screen layouts and a ‘getting started’ QuickChange installation making commissioning your digital signage system fast and simple. Using just your logo and 3 digital photos you can set up 20 screen layouts, perfectly branded and colour matched for your organisation, in less than 5 minutes.
