A suite of more than 200 industry-standard visual effects plug-ins, including the world's best Glow, blur, edge ray, defocus and texture tools allow artists maximum flexibility to perfect shots.Sapphire 5 for Nuke/OFX features include: This frees our artists to focus more time on the really unique shots." The availability of Sapphire 5 for Nuke will greatly enhance our pipeline because we can use it for our day-in, day-out effects without sacrificing any quality. "We have far less time to complete our shots, so building all our effects by hand on Nuke using gizmos just takes too long.
"Increasing budget and time constraints have really changed the way we work," said Florian Gellinger, visual effects supervisor at Rise VFX. But with tighter film budgets and shorter lead times - and the unchanging emphasis on perfection - artists and the post-production facilities that employ them now face the same time and budget quandaries as their counterparts in the faster-paced commercial and broadcast industries. Until recently, the time spent on these projects has not been an issue film artists have traditionally had long lead times to build and finesse their shots, and to make sure the results are perfect. Historically, film compositing artists have spent hours manually refining tiny details of the shots they work on so that all evidence of comps are removed. Using Sapphire 5, these artists will be able to add superb, high-quality realism to their composited shots faster than ever before, buying crucial additional time to finesse their shots. Already considered the industry-standard visual effects plug-ins for a variety of platforms, Sapphire 5's benefits are now extended to Nuke users as well as those on other OFX hosts such as Fusion, Scratch, Toxik, Baselight, Film Master and Mistika. CAMBRIDGE, MA-(Marketwire - July 26, 2010) - GenArts Inc., the premier provider of specialized visual effects software for the film, television and video industries, announced today that it has released its newest version of GenArts Sapphire™ 5 for Nuke and OFX host platforms.
