More and more motion graphics designers are using Adobe After Effects to build compositions which define a clear visual 3D space in which to create compelling animated graphics. In the Boris Continuum Complete 7 AE filter package, Boris FX provides several extremely useful generator-style filters for creating sophisticated 3D graphic elements that integrate tightly into After Effects 3D comps.
In this July 28, 2010 webinar, Boris FX Product Manager Dirk de Jong took a close look at the Boris Continuum Complete filters offering integration with the After Effects 3D environment: BCC Extruded Text, BCC Type On Text, BCC Extruded Spline, BCC Extruded EPS, BCC Layer Deformer, BCC Pin Art 3D, and BCC Particle Array 3D. Dirk showed some tips and techniques for working with these filters in AE in order to best exploit them in AE 3D compositions. Since these filters can also be used in NLEs such as Final Cut Pro and Avid, Dirk also took a look at how they translate to that environment and how it's possible to use BCC filter effect presets created in After Effects within the NLE versions of these plug-ins.
Comments from attendees
"Dirk's exercises with Layer Deformer and Extruded EPS opened up a new world of wonders. To see the possibilities of these filters is the biggest benefit of the webinars. I hope the Boris webinars continue as an outreach to those of us living on the learning curve. So much better than a printed manual. Keep up the great work."
"I really enjoy and appreciate the webinars. They convinced me to purchase Boris Continuum Complete. Thanks."
"I am really enjoying using Boris FX products. They are so seamlessly integrated with the host applications that at times I forget what is a standard feature and what is a Boris FX feature."
"It has changed the way I approach looking at a project. There is more than one way of doing things and Boris FX webinars have opened my eyes to the many possibilities."

So you know your NLE like the back of your hand - or at least you think you do until you want to create a cool network promo with styled graphics and cool effects. Now you've hit the proverbial brick wall in terms of what your NLE will let you do. In this webinar, we will look at ways to tear down that wall and extend your NLE into a full-blown motion graphics & compositing engine using Boris RED. You'll learn to quickly and easily motion track, match move, vector paint, and create custom transitions - all in just 90 minutes.
Who ever thought you could do real compositing inside Apple Final Cut Pro or Avid? With Boris Continuum Complete, you can do some real advanced compositing without ever leaving your NLE. In this webinar, you'll learn how to use some of the plug-ins in Boris Continuum Complete across applications like Final Cut Pro 7, Motion 4, After Effects CS5, and Avid Media Composer 5 to take your footage to the next level. You'll learn how to color correct more effectively, how to remove an object from a shot using Motion Key, plus much more.
Today, an editor is responsible for more than just editing. From cutting footage to creating motion graphics for bumpers to sweetening audio to creating VFX, an editor needs to understand how all those applications integrate with his NLE. In this webinar, we are going to have a look at some of the techniques and applications that can be used together with Media 100 Suite to create an efficient post-production workflow. We will focus on the exchange of data between Media 100 Suite, Adobe After Effects, Apple Final Cut Pro, and Apple Color.
