The definitive digital toolbox contains hundreds of realistic filters for optical camera simulation, specialized lenses, film stocks and grain, lens flares, optical lab processes, color correction, keying, and compositing as well as natural light and photographic effects. The Digital Film Tools portfolio includes standalone applications as well as professional plug-in collections for photographers, filmmakers, editors, and colorists.
The team used their strong practical understanding of photography, film and video editing, and in particular visual effects, to design highly-specialized software. Now, if you’re not familiar with DFT, here’s a snippet from the press release when they were purchased by Boris FX.ĭigital Film Tools (DFT) emerged as an off-shoot of a Los Angeles-based motion picture visual effects facility whose work included hundreds of feature films, commercials, and television shows. We’ve seen little bits of Mocha end up in both Continuum and Sapphire, but for the most part they have stayed as three separate products. Imagineer Systems (Mocha) and GenArts (Sapphire) were the two big ones with Silhouette and DFT (Digital Film Tools) to round out the acquisitions. Well, it seems as though every year, Boris FX is purchasing a different company to add to the growing catalogue of products they can offer. Now, you might be wondering what I mean by that. Whether it’s a chroma keying job, a particle effect, footage that needs stabilizing, or a stylistic lens flare you want to add to spice up a shot, each year the team at Boris FX strives to make Continuum THE plug-in package of choice, and this year is no exception. However, they really need to add the Complete back to the name, as what this package has strived to do year after year is make it, really, an all-in-one package that an editor or motion graphics designer can purchase, that will give them a complete set of tools for every job they work on, no matter what its requirements are. Boris Continuum Complete has dropped the Boris and Complete and now simply refers to the package as Continuum 2021. If you use effects in your editing timeline (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t), then you’ve come across Boris FX’s Continuum package at some point.
