It's a Tinderbox plugin.
It's also outdated.

Yeah, I didn't even have to check the link. I remember that from years ago. You could do it without a plug in but coming up with a new kind of transition/effect would be the designer's thing to do.

well i use after effects mainly for intro design and animation.
importance is
good art direction
edit it to the music
look for interestin transitions that fit your subject
use the effects wisely and subtle

So I don't use this app to often and just installed the 2018 15.1.2 build. My "save current preview" is grayed out. It has the ctrl+0 shortcut so assume it's new wording for RAM preview. Saw some stuff that 2015 had RAM preview issues, but it has to be fixed by now right? It's killing me I just want to save RAM preview than rendering this whole thing. I can playback in real-time, but can't save it. What do I need to do besides kick my monitor in the face?
- Just render it, mark your in and out point, adjust the output to draft/half frame size etc and it should be fairly quick if you just want a 'preview' render.shapesalad
- even that is pretty slow. its a push out section a lil large than 8K using a cc distort effect. figure if its cached in the RAM it should be far faster to justdeathboy
- save it. I ended up doing a full render... did a purge to see if that un-grays the ctrl+0 save when I go back to it. I couldn't find any search results to helpdeathboy

- oh that's awesome, the ability to animate the light rays themselves adds a whole new dimension :) so I just need to play with it to reveal it with the mask_niko
- You could have the mask reveal animation then use an adjustment layer above to keep it all non-destructivePhanLo
- Thanks Phan, perfect!_niko
