Effects

• Alpha Pixel Noise – The BCC Alpha Pixel Noise filter adds noise to an image’s alpha channel. You can use this filter to create pixelated transitions between two images.
• Color Choker – The BCC Color Choker filter posterizes and blurs colors in an image clip for creative and artistic results. The media clip colors that the filter is applied to can be attenuated or remapped individually through the many filter parameters or together as an RGB group. Included in the filter is a checkbox control to convert image to monochrome before applying the built-in color blur or choke.
• Colorize Glow – The BCC Colorize Glow filter is similar to the Glow filter but it generates the glow from a single channel and then applies a gradient to the glow. The Colorized Glow can be composited with the original image or viewed by itself.
• Gun offset
• Distorted edges
• Image roll
• Noise
• Scan lines
• Interference lines
• Drop Shadow – The BCC Drop Shadow filter allows you to apply an animatable drop shadow to titles or clips in the timeline.
• Edge Grunge – The BCC Edge Grunge filter can be used to create stylized titles that glow, burn and disappear over time.
  At default settings, it is designed to be applied to titles or other moderately-sized alpha objects. When applied to large alpha objects or non-alpha video it can produce overly blown-out levels by default. Moderate this by disabling the glow group. This permits adding erosion to just the edges of the these larger objects. Use the filter with text and other alpha objects.
• Emboss – BCC Emboss simulates the appearance of an embossed or raised image by converting the source to a solid color and lighting the edges in the source’s luma channel.
• Glow Alpha Edges – The BCC Glow Alpha Edges filter applies a glow that adheres closely to the contours of the image clip’s alpha channel or mask. Use this filter on layers with masks or images that have an alpha channel.
• Grunge – The BCC Grunge filter combines procedural algorithmic methods with real photographic image textures. Use them on titles to create unique grungy, degraded, torn-up, or melting looks. Or, apply the effects to background plates.
• LED – Make an image, clip or text element with alpha appear as though it was constructed out of an array of blinking or solid LED lights. For example, display boards in sports stadiums.
  By default, the lights take their color from the clip to which it was applied and can be set to either square or round diodes or “bulbs”. Alternately the filter can apply a tint of color over the media element to which it was applied.
  This filter uses OpenGL to benefit from hardware acceleration. All of the processing is done by the GPU of the graphics card instead of the CPU, which greatly improves performance while working with these filters within the host system and significantly reduces render times.
• Misalignment – The BCC Misalignment filter simulates the effect of misaligned RGB color channels by separating the RGB channels.
  In addition, the integrated Beat Reactor control suite allows the user to drive the effect properties based on the contents of an audio track.
• Multi Shadow – The BCC Multi Shadow filter allows users to composite three or more independent drop shadows over a source image.
• Prism – Use Prism to simulate the photographic effect of chromatic aberration. To explain, it occurs when a damaged lens creates prismatic color fringing along edges of contrast within the image.
  In addition, use Prism to create wipe or blur effects. Prism includes controls for image rotation along 2 points of one axis within the image, leaving a pleasant twisting blurred effect.

• RGB Edges – The BCC RGB Edges filter finds edges in each RGB channel independently, creates a new RGB image from these edges, and applies the new image to the source using the chosen Apply Mode and Apply Mix.
  The results vary, depending on the media and settings. Because they create edge effects by emphasizing differences between adjacent pixels, edge filters are very sensitive to parameter adjustments. Often a small change in a parameter setting can dramatically affect the result.
• RGB Pixel Noise – The BCC RGB Pixel Noise filter applies noise to each of the RGB color channels independently. Alternately, you can use this filter to apply noise to the source image’s luminance channel without changing the pixels’ colors.
• Scanline – Designed to generate rolling RGB scanlines over the source image clip, it emulates the effect of a computer monitor shot on video tape or film.
  Offset the scanlines from each other in YX space and time to generate photorealistic effects. The filter also includes a user-controlled noise generator function for added realism.

• Scatterize – The BCC Scatterize filter shuffles the pixels in the source image, creating a scattered effect.
  The built-in PixelChooser, with integrated mocha planar tracking, allows for greater control over which areas of the image the filter should affect. In addition, the integrated Beat Reactor control suite allows the user to drive the effect properties based on the contents of an audio track.
• Video Glitch – The BCC Video Glitch filter is an auto-animating filter effect for simulating some of the kinds of errors and artifacts that can be apparent during digital video playback. It’s useful as a style element on video or titles to create a sense of energy and movement.
  It makes use of auto-animation. In other words, little or no keyframing required! In addition, use the integrated Beat Reactor to drive the animation with audio.
  BCC Video Glitch allows a single glitch to last for more than one frame with controls over how that glitch grows and fades over its lifetime. In short, it allows more dynamic and realistic glitch behavior with glitches that last only a single frame. A special Curves preview mode allows visualizing the relative locations of the glitches over time.
