Boris FX offers some pretty amazing special effects tools for photography and video. Even some FREE tools. From now until midnight PST November 27th Boris FX is offering a 25% discount on its tools.
I’ve not used all of their tools (yet). I’ve only used the Particle Illusion. The free standalone plugin you can use with Adobe Premiere Pro, Davinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro. It has a fairly intuitive interface and creates beautiful particles for your videos. It took very little time to create the particles I applied to the end of this video I created.
I’d like to try out the Continuum + Sapphire package one of these days. Could be fun to play with.
