FCP plug in for specific effect

I want to know if there is a specific plug-in or effect I can create in FCP that will give me an effect that looks like a flare around a person or object.
The effect is a kind of radiating effect that goes all the way around the subject, and moves with the subject. I hope this makes sense.
Suggestons?
Thanks!

Oops, first let me say that I am running 5.0.2 - not 5.1.2 - so the Volumetrix FX probably wont' run on my ssytems. I did lookat their website and that is the effect that is cloes to waht I want. Now, on to rotoscoping - this is something I've heard about but do not fully understand. I know it is used alot, but I am not really familiar with how it is done. Suggestions on where to find info?
And any ideas for FCP 5.0.2?
Thanks!

Cycore FX plug-ins for After Effects 7

I'm having some issues finding the Cycore FX plug-ins for After Effects 7 (I know, it's old )
Using Windows 7 x64. The original discs were installed on an older OS, and have since been lost. AE 7 has been downloaded from the Adobe web site, but there are no additional resources/folders with the plug-ins to be found...any ideas???
[email protected]

It's strange that Adobe don't have the Cycore plug-ins available at the point of download. (It would make things so civilized.)
Thanks for the tip :-), I wonder if placing the plug-ins for CS3 in the appropriate folder for AE 7 might work??? Where did you find them???

Writing plug-in for After Effects

I wish to write a character generator kind of a plug-in for After Effects.
We have written similar plug-in for premiere which used to be created using the Import option in Adobe Premiere Pro.We managed to import our format and that was put on timeline, and then supplied content using our engine, when imImportImage callback was called.
In PremeirPro there was only one entry point.
What I got from reading the After effects SDK help was that there shall one entry point if we wish to write an effect.But we dont wish to write an effect but an importer.
Will it be a AEGP plug-in?
How should we go about it? Can we have a sample plug-in of such type, wherein a custom file format is implemented?
regards
Jasleen Kaur

there are two sample projects in the sdk that would be of interest to you.
1. IO (deals with importing and exporting of custom file types)
2. FBIO (the same as the above, but deals with frame sequences and not with movies)
there is one thing you should consider when doing this as an import plug-in:
as opposed to premier, that seeks the original file every time to display it, AE caches frames.
so even if you change the source, AE will not necessarily show that, until the "footage" is re loaded or AE starts recycling ram.
you can change the preferences of AE so that it doesn't cache anything, but then you seriously impair AE's performance.

Plug-ins for After Effects CC (12.0)

http://adobe.ly/11iUoPS
Here's the most important part:
"Important: There have been few significant changes to the effect plug-in API for After Effects CC (12.0), so you shouldn’t need new versions of most plug-ins for After Effects CC (12.0), if you already have plug-ins that work for After Effects CS5, CS5.5, or CS6."
Read the page linked to for details.

Great to know. This has been one of my concerns--ie, having to wait until plug-in vendors catch up before I upgrade. Looking forward to Monday.
Thanks Todd.

I believe you've posted this multiple times. Once is all that's needed. Also, please don't use all caps. Aside from the fact it means you're shouting it's also harder to read than mixed case.
The error means a bad fan motor or the HDD has failed. In your case it's the latter. You can try the following:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the OS X installation.

NOT FREE FCP Plug-in Links

I would like to purchase the packs of FCP Plug-ins for personal use. Notice I said "personal". I don't want to spend a lot, since these are basically just for videos I create for family and friends. Under a $100 is good, but I do realize some Plug-in bundles have greater value than others.
Please post what you have.

Also note that in the professional (Hollywood) cinema, 99.9% of effects and transitions used are straight cuts. Unlike amateurs, most of the effects used (colour correction etc.) are to make the film look more natural rather than unusual.
Trust me, I know. I'm currently working at an elementary school and the students love the cheesy cuts, transitions, etc. They go crazy when they see things like "ripple".

FCE HD Plug-ins for effects and transitions?

Good Morning
does anyone know if there are any software companies out there that make plug-ins for FCE HD like there are for iMovie?
Thanks for your help
PG
iMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

There are a number of companies out there that make plugins - just do a Google search for them.
In the meantime how does a hundred FREE effects, transitions and generators sound?
If you are prepared to spend a couple of hours (Broadband speed) exploring these sites you will find them:-
http://fxscript.org/plugins.html
http://www.chv-plugins.com/
http://www.cgm-online.com/eiperle/cgm_e.html

http://proapptips.com/tips/links.php?category=Plugins
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/review_sapphire_fcpdouglas.html

Though it says FCPro they all work with FCE. Each site has at least one free plugin amongst numerous commercial ones and some sites have ten or more.

How to build a plug-in for FCP

I want to build an export plug-in for FCP. It is a little similar to Automatic duck export plug-in. I want to export sequence in my own format.
The version of Final Cut Pro is 6.0.
I downloaded FxPlug SDK, but it is only about video effect, not what i want.
And I didn’t find any other documents about how to build an export plug-in for FCP.
Who has some related documents or can support me on this?
I will pay for the help if i can afford it.

I don't own Automatic Duck so I don't know how that particular application goes about doing this, but the only way I can think of doing it is through a QuickTime Export Component.

Is There A Noise Reduction Plug-in For FCP?

Wondering if I could find a plug-in for FCP5 or Color that will reduce the noise shot with high ISO in low light. Does anyone have a suggestion. Thanks!
Message was edited by: sburst7

I have found the 'Noise Reduction' in the CHV repair collection for FCP to be the best out of anything that I have ever tried. The noise reduction is fantastic and the sharpness loss is the best out everything I have seen.
http://www.chv-plugins.com/cms/Fx-Script/Repair-collection/Repair-collection.php
The default settings can be a little excessive, I almost always end up with a setting of 10 and 15 regardless of the footage.
Also, you can try grain reduction inside of colour - pair it with a vignette and alpha blend to limit it to specific areas.
Cheers,
Liam.

Is there a good motion tracking plug-in for FCP-X?

The question is in the headline: Is there a good motion tracking plug-in for FCP-X?
You know, like when I want to blur out, say, a license plate number on a moving car.
I know of no plug-ins for FCP-X that will do this. Surely there's one out there.
And since you can't just export a sequence to Motion (like you could in FCP 7), how would one achieve this in FCP-X?

R&B wrote:
… And since you can't just export a sequence to Motion …
instead of selecting a clip or sequence in FCPX, you set the in/out points in the Export/Send it to Compressor dialog.
the exported mov can be tracked in Motion5 …-
aaaand finally re-imported into FCPX.
… not exactly as convenient as in the old FC/p , but the tracker in M5 offers, imho as a hobbyist, superb results.-

Free plug ins for fcp

thanks in advance
Brucey Bizzit

Many of the posters here author them -- some without cost and some sold.
Are the sites safe? From what?
Never heard of a plug in for FCP ruining a computer. If they don't work or cause issues, just trash them

Plug-In for slow motion/fast motion effects?

The fact that iMovie '08 does not give us the ability to slow down, speed up, or rewind video kinda stinks. I know that iMovie has it, now, but I don't want to spend the money just for those effects.
Is there a simple plug-in that makes this possible in iMovie '08?
*I want only safe downloads. I will only consider downloading it if you have done it first and there were no viruses or anything.

no plug-ins for iM08/09 .. Apple doesn't offer an official API for that..
perhaps, you like the workflow, described on my site, using a free 3rd party tool... :
