Hollywood FX contains a variety of effects including morphing 3D objects, and real-world objects which can't be found in other packages. Hollywood FX is based on an open, modular 3D architecture. It's design allows for new effects to be added at any time, and allows for different 3D rendering engines to be plugged-in in the future that take advantage of any new technologies that appear.
Other products often use simulated 3D, rather than the true 3D polygon rendering with calculated lighting, shadows, motion blur, and spline based paths. Other products only include a fraction of the effects that come with Hollywood FX, and those effects are not nearly as customizable as Hollywood FX. Hollywood FX includes plugins for all popular nonlinear editors and paint programs in one package. You don't have to purchase separate packages for each editor.
How do I use Hollywood FX for video?
For transitions you will usually use HollywoodFX as a plugin to your favorite nonlinear editor. After capturing video to your hard drive (using a video capture/playback card), you will set up two video clips in your editor's timeline, then drag-and-drop a Hollywood FX transition into the timeline. After setting your options (you can save your favorite defaults), you render your nonlinear project, including any Hollywood FX transitions, and play back the video through your video capture/playback card.
How is this different from Take32?
Take 32 is a collection of 32 of the transitions that are included in Hollywood FX. It has less control over each effect. Hollywood FX includes all of the transitions that are included in Take 32.
Take 32 gives users 32 of the best Hollywood FX transitions at a price everyone can afford.
