VistaScene
is a collection of 500 additional effects for your editing program. It includes filters similar to those available elsewhere, but all designed by ProDad and included in one package. If you have the right kind of graphic card they are accelerated by the card as well. There is a test utility which will confirm whether your graphic card is suitable.
The filters include:
Movie Looks - these are similar to the kinds of looks you get with Magic Bullet.
Sparkles and glows - generate sparkles based on the light areas of the image, all fully adjustable. Add that magic look to any scene. You can also use these as sparkly boarders for scenes.
Old Movie filter - complete with all the usual nonsense.
Shine effect - similar to the Matrox shine or Trapcode plug-in but better quality and more configurable than the Matrox. Combine it with a title and get light to shine out of the letters.
Of course everything is thoroughly keyframable and like all plug-ins you just add the filter to the clip, adjust the settings and then return to your editing program to render the result.
There are some sample videos on the ProDad website showcasing some of these filters.
VistaScene plugs into Adobe Premiere Pro 1, 1.5, 2 and CS3, Adobe After Effects 7 & 8, as well as all variations of Premiere Elements. It also works in Avid Liquid 7, Avid Xpress Pro 5 and Media Composer 2, and Canopus Edius 4.x and Sony Vegas 5-8. You can see more information on the ProDad Website.
