3D Edit Silver
3D Edit Silver enables you to
simply and quickly edit video with stunning effects all on
a standard home computer. The effects you can generate are
similar, and in some cases identical, to the effects used
in Hollywood films but you don't have to be Steven Spielberg
to create them. 3D Edit has been designed from the bottom
up to be easy to use and has the best help system of any editing
suite in its class! A child could and has operated it. What
makes all this possible is the fact that 3D Edit is the first
editing suite to exclusively use the latest graphics technology
to create its effects. With other software systems you would
have to wait for effects to "render" so you can see them or
if they state they render in real-time, the viewing screen
is small and the FX are limited. This rendering is often slow
and as a result ruins the whole enjoyment of making a movie.
With 3D Edit effects are instant, in real-time you don't have
to wait at all. You can add fire and see what it looks like
immediately, you can control its size, color and ferocity
and timing and then overlay it onto your own video all in
real-time and in full screen.

a lightweight, powerful and intuitive compositing system capable
of blending CG and live action seamlessly in a resolution
independent way. - If you are a serious Digital Artist / 3D

you might have a Flame or Inferno! These applications are
great (not cheap!) but, sometimes it can feel like cracking
a nut with a sledge hammer. KCIRA:BLEND is intended to fill
this gap in the market by offering simple solutions to simple
problems, whilst at the same time offer a robust, resolution
independent package of effects and image manipulation tools.
