Video Gogh turns your videos into moving paintings, using RE:Vision Effects optical flow technology to move brush strokes without stuttering artifacts. Video Gogh 3 opens up other possibilities in motion graphic design by introducing the option for users to define their own brushes, which may be animated. Version 3 adds a substantial amount of new visual effects opportunities that many have requested over the years.

Some of the features include:
* Three default brush styles included: Oily, Watercolor and Chalk.
* Custom Brush Set (up to 10): now included is support for animated and custom brush sets. Users can supply custom brush images and for each select different render styles (including render directly as sprite).
* A new “Non-Additive Blending” mode allows you to make properly semi-transparent layers.
* Video Gogh 3 provides an option to paint over the original sequence to avoid holes in result.
* The ability to clip to edges found in the original image is now an option allowing you to paint “tight” or “loose”.
* Users can now control separately the growth and death of brush strokes when they become too distant apart or too clustered.
* A better technique has been introduced that performs much better when objects come into frame as a result of panning or other camera (or object) motion.
* In previous versions the initial distribution of brush strokes was not properly randomized, causing brush strokes to appear located on a grid upon initialization. This is been corrected in version 3.
* Users can now control the variability in brush stroke width (including choosing to have no randomness).
* Motion can be calculated using an alternate clip. This is useful if the original clip has low contrast or is difficult to track. This feature is also useful to facilitate layering small regions of the image with the plugin.
* External motion vectors (eg from Twixtor or your 3D system) are also supported.
* Brush stroke orientation can now be specified using alternate images. In addition, direction maps (e.g. from a 3D system) may be used to control directions the brush strokes orientation.
* 16 bpc channel image support for applications that support 16bpc for After Effects-compatible plugins.
