RE:Vision Effects announces ReelSmart Motion Blur, an After Effects 4.0 Plugin that applies more natural-looking motion blur to a video sequence by automatically tracking every pixel. RE:Vision?s tracking technology is at the heart of ReelSmart Motion Blur, so there is no handwork involved. Users can add as little or as much blurring as is needed.

ReelSmart Motion Blur empowers users to:

* reduce strobing in sequences. Particularly useful when frame rates of video are changed after digitizing. ReelSmart Motion Blur has fewer artifacts than other methods, such as frame blending.
* smooth the jerkiness of hand drawn and scanned animations automatically.
* motion blur complex 3D animations when the 3D system takes too much time. In many cases, ReelSmart Motion Blur will be much faster and just as effective.
* motion blur one sequence using another sequence’s motion for unique effects. (for our sample movies, see the gallery pages on our website).

ReelSmart Motion Blur is available for both Macintosh and Windows and is priced at just $89.95. The plug-in currently works in After Effects 4.0 (and later) and Commotion 2.0 (and later). It works in Final Cut Pro, but users should read the restrictions of features on the RE:Vision web site.

Demo versions are available on the RE:Vision Effects website.
