RE:Vision Effects Inc. has released ReelSmart Twixtor, a re-timing solution for Shake. The plug-in enables artists to speed up and slow down image sequences. Twixtor synthesizes unique new frames by warping and interpolating frames of the original sequence, using proprietary tracking technology that calculates motion for individual pixels. Twixtor features include: warping and interpolation of frames to change the duration of input footage; high quality slow-motion and speed-up; calculation of motion vectors for each pixel of each frame; stretching of a sequence using a single scaling parameter; and key-frameable re-timing for complete control on a frame-by-frame basis. Twixtor is available for Shake IRIX and Windows, priced at $495. RE:Vision also released ReelSmart Motion Blur for Shake. ReelSmart Motion Blur and ReelSmart Twixtor run on Discreet systems, Shake and all applications that support After Effects compatible plug-ins. For more information visit www.revisionfx.com.
