RE:Vision Effects releases ReelSmart Motion Blur for SOFTIMAGE�|XSI� animation software. ReelSmart Motion Blur (RSMB) automatically tracks every pixel in a sequence and blurs based on calculated motion. RSMB is fully integrated with your 3D scene, so it also works from Motion Vectors generated by shaders and user-supplied points (for example, tracker positions). RSMB gives XSI artists an extremely fast, intelligent 2D motion blur for 3D renders, dramatically speeding up the rendering pipeline.

RSMB supports 8 and 16 bits-per-channel and floating-point processing and takes full advantage of multiprocessor machines.

RSMB for SOFTIMAGE|XSI Features:

* Works in the FXTree in SOFTIMAGE|XSI v4 and v4.2.
* Cheaper render-only licenses for render farms. Render-only licenses can be used with xsibatch if you saved your project on a machine with a full RSMB license.
* Support of alternate inputs allowing you to motion blur a sequence with the tracked motion of another sequence for interesting effects.
* Animatable motion blur amount, including the ability to remove motion blur.
* Ability to use 3D points from your scene to guide the tracking; either to enhance the motion estimation or as a mean to create without any image tracking at all.
* Includes RE:Vision new motion estimation foundation as seen in Twixtor 4.5.
* Completely compatible with La Maison Motion Vectors Toolkit. http://www.alamaison.fr/3d/lm_2DMV/lm_2DMV.htm

Pricing:

* ReelSmart Motion Blur for SOFTIMAGE|XSI is priced at $189.95.
* Render-Only $44.95.
* Contact sales@revisionfx.com for volume quotes.
