Digital Anarchy Toolbox for After Effects, Photoshop
August 01, 2003
San Francisco, CA - Digital Anarchy's Anarchy Toolbox for After Effects is now available, the company has announced, and it is showing version of an upcoming effects plug-in package for Photoshop.
Anarchy Toolbox for AE is a set of nine tools for creating a wide variety of sophisticated effects including creative blurs, beautiful glows, controlled distortions, seamlessly tiled images, warped graphics, and utilities.
Texture Anarchy, a new collection of texture-generating plugins for Photoshop, is anticipated to ship soon for Mac OS 9, Mac OS X and Windows.
Among the tools featured:
Anarchist Edge produces glowing, painterly edge effects. The controls combined with the built-in transfer modes allow for the creation of many light and paint effects.
Designer Blur is a new way of creating blurs. This produces a variety of effects that range from subtle, painterly effects to abstract blends of shape and color.
Gradient Path allows you to wrap a gradient around a Bezier path. You can easily create glows and custom color and light effects around masks, improved control for using mattes, backgrounds based on mask shapes, and custom grayscale maps for other filters (e.g. Digital Anarchy’s new Designer Blur).
Noise Complex is a noise filter with a variable frame rate, and a compound effect can be created using grayscale images to control the amount of noise. Another powerful use for this filter, is to use it as a source layer for other effects that need a random but controllable input.
Smooth Tiler seamlessly tiles images that were not designed to seamlessly tile. Many controls are provided for blending the original with itself, producing a seamless repeating pattern. The blend controls also offer ways to create interesting kaleidoscope effects.
ReSizer provides a dozen different algorithms for intelligently resizing footage and images, so you are no longer limited to Draft and Best Quality when scaling up an image or footage. Use the different re-sampling methods to find the cleanest way to scale images.
Color Sampler allows you to sample an image or footage and returns the color of the pixels at the sample location. This provides an easy way of using expressions to control other parameters based on an image’s color.
The Anarchy Toolbox now on special for $129 USD (regular $149).
