Boris FX Continuum Adds Creative Editing Features To Particle Illusion

Continuum 2019.5 delivers new functionality to real-time particle emitters, customizable Particle Illusion Dissolve transition, Cinema 4D integration, and advanced keying features

Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A — June 13, 2019 — The post-production industry’s most versatile plug-in collection,   Boris FX Continuum, gives members of its annual subscription and upgrade & support plans, five new reasons why staying current reaps major creative and time-saving benefits. Continuum 2019.5 is now available as a complimentary update to current plan members with support for Adobe, Avid, Apple, and OFX host applications.

Building upon the popularity of Continuum 2019’s   Particle Illusion real-time generator, the 2019.5 release provides greater design flexibility with fully editable emitter properties to quickly add broadcast-ready custom animations to editing, motion graphics, and visual effects workflows. Continuum also adds a new Particle Illusion Dissolve transition featuring the full Particle Illusion interface to create unique custom transitions and dozens of professionally designed presets, new Cinema 4D integration within Title Studio, a new Spill Remover tool to instantly get rid of unwanted light spill on chroma key footage, and enhanced Mocha features including edge-snapping splines.

“As part of our continued commitment to our loyal user base, we’re excited to release mid-year versions of flagships Continuum, Sapphire, and Mocha Pro,” says Boris Yamnitsky, President and Founder, Boris FX. “The new Continuum 2019.5 release brings significant added value to our current annual subscription and upgrade & support plan members. The ability to edit parameters such as particle types, sprite shapes, and gradients directly inside Particle Illusion opens up an endless world of creative options. Pair that with the new Particle Illusion Dissolve transition and Continuum 2019.5 users can now easily add high-end particles to fit any project need.”

Yamnitsky continues, “Editors and artists now also have a robust new 3D render engine with the addition of new integration of Title Studio with Cinema 4D. The new Spill Remover feature is a direct result of a request from a long-time power user, and Mocha’s new edge-snapping splines make rotoscoping and masking Continuum effects even faster.”

Continuum 2019.5 Spill Remover, Before and After

“Continuum 2019.5 has a great addition to Primatte Studio — the Spill Remover. It is an extra level game-changer to help with those less than ideal green screen shots where big amounts of spill happen,” states Tal, online editor and colorist, NBC’s World of Dance and Songland. “On top of this, Continuum also adds Light Wrap Spill for color fixing the fine fringes of keyed edges, especially hair. Now the correct hair color can be added back in to make the key look more natural. Both of these are a very welcome addition. This was a real life issue I ran into while finishing a show and the Boris FX team came up with this excellent solution.”
