Size XY: Optical Glow 1.5 introduces the option to separately control the scale of the glow effect on both the X- and Y-axis.

Per-Channel Size: Separately scale the RGB channels of the glow creating a more organic effect.

Users can also control the size and center point of the rays.

Radiate: Add light rays to a glow using the new radiate feature.

Optical Glow and Layer Glow tools have been updated to include new radiate options for creating organic light rays, the ability to separately scale the RGB channels of the glow, and the ability to separately scale the effect on the X and Y axes.

The tool supports popular cameras from Arri, Blackmagic, Canon, RED and more.

Color Space Options: Supercomp now includes professional color handling options, with 28 new color spaces added.

Color Match: Use the new tool (found in the color correction tool) and Supercomp will instantly match the black and white points of the layers behind it, providing a fast way to get a much more believable composite.

As curved lines are identified that should be straight, the lens distortion tool quickly solves the lens.Īll plugins are GPU-accelerated, giving AE users great results at fast speeds. Lens Distortion is a new tool that makes matching the distortion of a lens easy, so that elements can be seamlessly composited in a shot - it can determine the type of lens used for a shot on its own, in an instant.

“With VFX Suite 1.5, we’re excited to build on that with new and updated tools that allow for even better visual effects and compositing results.” “When we released VFX Suite last year, our goal was to solve the challenges faced by professional VFX artists by giving them next generation tools right inside of After Effects,” commented Maxon/Red Giant’s chief creative officer, Stu Maschwitz.
