Boris Continuum Complete 5's new LED filter is designed to make an image, clip, or text element with alpha appear as though it was constructed out of an array of blinking or solid LED lights similar to the display boards seen in today's sports stadiums. By default, the lights take their color from the clip to which they are applied and can be set to either square or round diodes or "bulbs". Alternately, the filter can apply a tint of color over the media element to which it is applied. BCC LED is a part of the new OpenGL category of Boris Continuum Complete filters which benefit from hardware acceleration; all of the processing is done by the graphics card GPU instead of the CPU, greatly improving performance while working with the filters and significantly reducing render times.
In this week's tutorial, we'll use Apple Final Cut Pro to generate an HD format show opener for a news program that incorporates a world map in the background. We will treat the world map image with Boris Continuum Complete 5's new LED filter to make it appear as though it was made out of LED bulbs. Read the tutorial
