RE:Vision Effects announces Linux support of Twixtor 4.5 and ReelSmart Motion Blur (RSMB) 3.2 Sparks for Discreet Systems. Also released is an update for IRIX users.
RE:Vision Effects announce Linux support of their Discreet Systems (Sparks) versions of Twixtor, their popular retiming solution and ReelSmart Motion Blur, which adds and removes motion blur based on per-pixel calculated motion. The new releases work within the Linux versions of Smoke and Flint and are also available for Burn render farms.
Twixtor 4.5 raises the bar in motion estimation. Nick Brooks, Academy Award and Emmy Award winner for visual effects says, “Twixtor 4.5 represents a new touchstone in retiming. The difference in accuracy means that retiming artifacts are either drastically reduced or disappear on the hardest to retime footage. ”
