Boris FX Particle Illusion is an easy-to-use, powerful high-end particle generator that provides editors and artists with instant access to photorealistic particle effects for motion graphics, visual effects, titles, lower thirds, and backgrounds. Available as a free standalone application, paid premium filter, or as part of the Continuum suite, Particle Illusion is the tool for anyone looking for a quick and easy way to add outstanding particle effects to their images, animations, and videos.
High-end production values make your clients happy and real-time particle creation makes users happy. Particle Illusion features a clever, user-friendly interface that makes creating motion graphics like sparks, smoke, fireworks, and explosions incredibly simple. A real-time preview window automatically shows an animated preview of the selected emitter, and users can move the mouse in the interactive window to change the preview - see the particles as they will appear later. As a bonus, you save your clients time and money.
Particle Illusion comes preloaded with thousands of emitter presets. A built-in search makes it easy to find the right effect, and the real-time preview shows you how the effect filter will behave. Double-click to add it to your project, then use it as is or adjust the position, shape, duration, size, etc., by changing the values in the control panel. Also, create new presets by saving modified emitters in your own library.
Can't boast a completed physics degree? No problem! Particle Illusion makes creating impressive particle animations easier than ever. Choose an emitter from your library and a double-click later it's added to the scene. Similarly, with a simple click, you can select the specific time and place where the emitter should land. Many emitters contain keyframe animation. To make finding and modifying these keyframes easy, parameters with animations are highlighted with a red box and the navigation buttons make jumping through the timeline from keyframe to keyframe easy. The interpolation can be changed, buttons can be added or removed, and all adjustments are extremely simple.
