Video Effects Plug-ins for Avid Editing and Finishing Systems
Boris Continuum Complete 8 AVX gives Avid editors the most comprehensive VFX and compositing plug-in suite ever created. A whopping 200+ filters include 3D Objects such as Extruded Text, 3D particle effects, image restoration tools, lens flares and lights, award-winning chroma keying and compositing, a full suite of color correction tools, time-based effects such as Optical Stabilizer, warp and perspective effects, and blurs, glows, and cinematic effects. All BCC AVX filters take advantage of either multi-processing or OpenGL hardware acceleration for an interactive effects design experience.
Over 1,000 professionally-designed presets are included free with every installation of BCC. Customers can save and freely share their own presets and build customized preset collections tuned to the specific needs of a project – without the need for a costly subscription service. Presets can be shared with matching BCC installations on any host application in which BCC is installed. In addition, via the Boris Transfer workflow utilities, BCC is the only plug-in set that allows easy VFX migration between Avid, Adobe, and Apple editing software – with parameters and keyframed information intact. Boris Transfer AE transfers Avid or Final Cut Pro sequences to After Effects while Boris Transfer FCP transfers sequences between Avid and Final Cut Pro.

Details
What's New in Boris Continuum Complete 8 AVX
Support for 64-bit Avid Editing Systems
Re-engineered for 64-bit Windows and Macintosh operating systems, Boris Continuum Complete 8 AVX fully supports Avid Media Composer 6, Avid Symphony 6, and Avid NewsCutter 10.
Videoscope
A convenient utility for checking color levels at any stage of your project. Simply insert the filter in the desired location and view overlaid scopes in the project window. Ensure broadcast-legal colors of your final output or any individual element of your project. Quickly find out which effect or filter is overstepping the limits!

Film Glow
Create the soft feel of exposed film with this powerful yet very easy-to-use effect. Make your highlights bloom and shadows spread out as you experiment with your own unique looks. Or try one of the professionally-designed presets included with the filter. Use BCC Film Glow to marry two clips shot on different cameras or set the mood for the entire project. It works great on text and logos, too!

Flicker Fixer
Save your flickering shot with this powerful, sophisticated image restoration tool. Based on state-of-the-art research, the underlying engine offers a choice of intra-frame analysis or temporal flicker smoothing. Repair video affected by a flickering light source or uneven shutter exposure. One day this filter will save your life!

Beat Reactor

Built into many Boris Continuum Complete filters, Beat Reactor makes it easy to generate audio-driven effects such as a pulsing light, a glow, or even an image wipe that follows along with the beat of an audio track.
Lens Flare 3D
Powered by GPU acceleration, the new 3D Lens Flare effect can be used to create cinematic looks, stylish broadcast design elements, and beautiful transitions.
This feature will be available to BCC 8 AVX users as a free software update.
Stage Light
Add striking realism to your 3D composite with this powerful volumetric lighting tool. Simulate production lights, projectors, or stage lighting where your viewer can see light beams emanating from powerful light sources. Instantly recreate an atmosphere of a stage performance, a night scene, or a rock bar. Or simply add light beams to the headlights of a car. Try a built-in smoke texture for even more drama!
This feature will be available to BCC 8 AVX users as a free software update.

Boris Transfer AE
Seamlessly Transfer Avid Media Composer and Apple Final Cut Pro Program Sequences to Adobe After Effects Boris Transfer AE preserves all aspects of an Avid or Final Cut Pro project including edits, cuts, dissolves, and treatments. In addition, Boris Transfer AE offers the unique ability to translate Boris Continuum Complete effects used in Avid or Final Cut Pro projects to corresponding BCC effects in After Effects.
Boris Transfer FCP
Bidirectional Sequence Transfer Tool for Final Cut Pro and Avid Using Boris Transfer FCP, Avid and Final Cut Pro editors can exchange projects that include transitions, effects, image and time warps, 3rd-party effects, and keyframes. Transfer Boris Continuum Complete filters and transitions that were applied to clips while retaining all of the keyframed changes.
Final Effects Complete
Final Effects Complete delivers a collection of effects plug-ins for leading nonlinear editing and compositing solutions. Ranging from graceful blurs and edges to radical warps and particle generators, FEC dramatically augments your creative arsenal without forcing you to learn a new application. The simplicity of the filters combined with the native host interface, reduces the learning curve to virtually zero. Most filters feature less than a dozen parameters; only a few simple adjustments are required to create totally unique organic effects.
Videoguys Notes
8) Boris Continuum Complete AE8 and AVX8
The folks over at Boris FX refer to Boris Continuum Complete (BCC) as the Swiss Army Knife for video effects (VFX). I agree! BCC is available for several different NLE software hosts and each includes more than 200 filters and effects that plug right into your NLE application (After Effects Cs5.x or Avid MC6). What I like best about BCC is the tools used to manipulate and control each filter and the fact that the effects use the same GUI and controls as your host application. This make using and working with these very sophisticated, complex filters and effects a breeze for experienced video editors.
Some of the filters and effects included in BCC8 are: 3D Objects such as Extruded Text, 3D particle effects, image restoration tools, lens flares and lights, award-winning chroma keying and compositing, a full suite of color correction tools, time-based effects such as Optical Stabilizer, warp and perspective effects, blurs, glows, and cinematic effects. All BCC filters take advantage of either multi-processing or OpenGL hardware acceleration for an interactive effects design experience.
You also get over 1,000 professionally-designed presets included free with every installation of BCC. In addition, via the Boris Transfer workflow utilities, BCC is the only plug-in set that allows easy VFX migration between Avid, Adobe, and Apple editing software – with parameters and keyframed information intact. Boris Transfer AE transfers Avid or Final Cut Pro sequences to After Effects while Boris Transfer FCP transfers sequences between Avid and Final Cut Pro.
