New Features in Continuum Complete 7 AVX

With over 200 filter effects and transitions divided into 10 categories, BCC 7 AVX adds many new features and improvements including:

Noise Reduction

Noise Reduction

Smoothes out video noise using spatial and temporal information derived from the video clip - especially in dark areas of an image.

Lens Blur

Lens Blur

Emulates a popular lens blur or rack defocus effect where out-of-focus highlights of an image clip take on the shape of the lens shutter. The filter includes a gradient map layer to control the depth of focus.

Lens Shape

Lens Shape

Designer effect similar to a rack defocus effect where the shape of the bokeh can be imported from an external layer.

Lens Transition

Lens Transition

Wipe filter that applies a lens blur or rack defocus effect to the specular highlights of outgoing and incoming image clips.

Particle Array 3D

Particle Array 3D

BCC Particle Array 3D is an OpenGL-accelerated particle-based 3D generator. It generates a 3D array of particles and offers several interesting ways of manipulating the array based on graph controls, fractal noise patterns, random dispersion, and more.

Pin Art 3D

Pin Art 3D

BCC Pin Art 3D is an OpenGL-accelerated particle-based 3D generator. Like a 3D-capable LED or halftone type of effect, it can be used to achieve a wide range of both 2D and 3D-looking surfaces.

Compare Mode

Compare Mode

Added to over one-third of BCC 7 AVX's filters, Compare Mode is a convenient tool that enables you to 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 preview 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, the Compare Mode feature includes the unique ability to view the filtered result with a live filtered layer in the timeline.

On-Screen Overlay Control Widgets

On-Screen Overlay Control Widgets

The most commonly-used parameters in each BCC filter are now accessible via Avid-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 your eye remains focused on the image. Overlays can be turned on and off by Avid's built-in overlay control.

Performance Gains

The new BCC Pin Art 3D and BCC Particle Array 3D filters integrate a new particle engine that is OpenGL-accelerated. All BCC 7 AVX filters take advantage of either multi-processing or OpenGL hardware acceleration to deliver an interactive effects design experience.

Boris AAF Transfer Support

BCC 7 AVX is supported by Boris AAF Transfer, a new plug-in that facilitates seamless transfer of Final Cut Pro sequences with BCC 7 FxPlug filters to Avid Media Composer or Avid DS. BCC 7 FxPlug filters are translated to corresponding BCC 7 AVX filters - including all of the keyframed changes.
