  • Displace – a very advanced version of After Effects’ Displacement effect. Not only can you displace footage in both directions at a time but you can furthermore modulate the strength for each region using a greyscale image. Of particular note are also its elaborate sampling controls to prevent blurring in displaced areas.
  • Distort – a spin-off of the Displace effect, but with the layer its applied to acting as the driver which produces abstract distortions.
  • Inverse UV – using an UV channel image from a 3D program and a matching color image, you can unwrap the pixels into a plane to add effects after the 3D rendering like for example a "growing" tattoo on a face or body
  • Planar – a massively beefed up version of Corner Pin. In addition to giving you motion blur, you can expand the edges, rotate the tracked result or constrain it to maintain the correct perspective, all of which is not easily possible with After Effects‘ onboard tools.
  • UV – based on an UV pass image from a 3D program, you can apply your footage as a texture. Either you re-apply the modified data extracted using
  • InverseUV or use entirely different items all together.
