I’ve been using Sapphire for a quite long time and the truth is when its come to Visual effects that need more lights, streaks, Glows, Depth of Fields, Z_Buffer Builder I’m very satisfy with the results..  It tremendously create a massive effect looks to the images.. I use Sapphire for my Autodesk C0mbustion 2008, Adobe After Effects CS3 Host Applications. But amazingly It runs perfectly on Eyeon Fusion 5 Series..! since Fusion has been adaptable to its AEX form plugins and has their own folder to create it.. Nice..!!

This Plug Ins is highly recommended for those who intense to create a stunning effects style in any production wether Feature Films, TV Commercials, TV Shows Opening, TV Stations’ ID.. anything..!!  Just try this Sapphire Plug ins and be creative to tweak its parameters then you’ll reveal its magic to your shots..!!

Trapcode Horizon

Image Samples

 

Horizon is a  camera-aware color gradient and image mapping tool. It is a fairly straightforward utility plug-in. It is meant to be used on the bottom (backmost) layer in a 3D comp. It generates a background that corresponds to the camera’s viewing direction. 

Watch Horizon in action! [flash]

Trapcode Horizon is useful for creating the stuff that is really far away (at infinate distance) in a 3D comp.

It can be used for example when a 3D camera move leaves the viewer confused; Horizon can help generating a background that corresponds to the camera move and thus help the viewer understand what is actually going on. Or it can be used just for fun!

Trapcode Horizon is a great companion to the other 3D plugs from Trapcode, such as Particular and Form etc.

Hosts Adobe After Effects 7.0 and higher (Mac OSX/Windows)

Magic Bullet Looks

Desert sunrise, Arctic tundra, nighttime urban streets: the look of your footage defines the mood. Now you can define the style of your video or film, regardless of on-set conditions, with powerful imaging tools. Choose from 100+ Look presets, to help set the mood for everything from a wedding to the next Sundance original. You also get the standalone Magic Bullet LooksBuilder, for pre-visualizing looks on set or anywhere. Portable presets load into any editing hosts, so the same Looks you create on set are the ones you finish with in the editorial suite: no need for an expensive finishing system.

View Features

A Designer’s Interface

For the first time, you can design and refine a look with a user experience that balances ease of use with the power of 36 distinct Look Tools. The new interface offers Quick Drawers for accessing tools and presets without taking up valuable space. Tool controls keep clutter to a minimum. Also, a linear-light processing engine provides fluid interaction using the power of your graphics card.

100-Look Library

More than one hundred unique Looks, conveniently organized by category in the Look Library, are a great starting point for defining the mood of any scene. The presets range from simple exposure and film process emulation to radical color changes. Best of all you can use the Look Theater to browse through the library using your own images — finding a look couldn’t be easier.

Looks with Legs

Magic Bullet Looks works as both a plug-in and a standalone application. The LooksBuilder plug-in accesses presets and renders looks inside a variety of popular editing software packages. The application lets you refine and create looks anywhere, from on set to your edit suite, using any image as a foundation. Go from pre-visualization to final output, all with the same look.
