New FX for the Pro Pack: Frame Overlay, Particle System, Slideshow, LED Lights
• Frame Overlay: allows the preview of sections of footage that fit within a different (smaller)
frame size than the native size of the sequence, by rendering a customizable overlay over existing footage. The overlay can be used to add hints to your footage before a conversion from 16:9 to 4:3; to preview how your PAL content will look at NTSC resolution if no re-scaling is applied; to identify portions of the original HD frame to be preserved when down-sampling for DVD adaptation.
• Particle System: animate built-in images as well as media via an image well parameter.
• Slideshow: create slideshow of images from any folder inside FCP.
• LED Lights: simulate the display of a source image on an array of LED lights.
New FX for Motion Pack: Glitch, 3D Shatter, Panel Vision, RGB Trails
• Glitch: corrupts and destroys the image in a controllable way.
• 3D Shatter: breaks the image up over 3D space.
• Panel Vision: tiles 8 source images in random patterns.
• RGB Trails: a motion trail effect with controls for each color channel.
New FX for Editing Pack: New Transitions: Cheshire Fade, Explode Away, Panels Mix Off, Spinner, Zipper
• Cheshire Fade: fades away the image leaving the edges to last.
• Explode Away: explodes the source clip off the screen.
• Panels Mix Off: mixes, shrinks or spins the source clip to the next clip in random patterns.
• Spinner: spins the image a number of times landing on the next clip.
• Zipper: Unzips the next image over the clip.
