Key Features
• GPU acceleration: extensive use of Metal graphics technology means setup and rendering happen in real time.
• No keyframes required: customize the transition through its parameters and let the plugin figure out how each change affects the animation. Time not spent adding and tweaking keyframes is time saved!
• Advanced camera settings: enable motion blur for smoother, more realistic results. Add depth of field blurring when blocks fly towards or away from the viewer. Adjust the virtual camera’s field of view to create the most pleasant geometry for the given parameters.
