Boris Red is a plug-in application that provides integrated broadcast-quality features for titling, compositing and 3D effects, applied directly to clips in the host NLE timeline. A custom user interface is where effects are created. This architecture allows the applications to share an interface that appears and behaves the same across different platforms and in each of the more than 20 supported NLEs, including Apple Final Cut Pro HD, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Avid systems. In addition, all three plug-ins include the Red Engine, standalone application that creates effects offline using any computer. The KeyFramer is a cross-platform application that can be distributed free of charge.
Version 3.02 is available as a free download to existing Version 3 customers. Boris Red is available through the BorisFX worldwide reseller channel, direct through BorisFX or online. Upgrades from earlier versions of Boris Red are $295 USD. Owners of Boris FX, Graffiti, and Calligraphy may upgrade to Boris Red for $999. Through March 31, 2005, this upgrade includes a free Boris Red training DVD. The suggested retail price for new purchases of Boris Red is $1,595 and also includes the training DVD.
