Motion 4. Breathtaking Filters and Effects.

Create stunning, one-of-a-kind designs by experimenting with an extensive selection of innovative filters, effects and design tools. Send particles exploding into 3D space, quickly set up replicating patterns, or apply any of more than 120 GPU-accelerated filters and effects to craft a unique visual style.

Real-time filters and effects

Motion includes more than 120 GPU-accelerated filters and effects that can operate at 32-bit floating-point colour for extraordinary quality. Have fun with effects such as Underwater, Glass Block and Insect Eye; or choose from a wide variety of standard effects including blurs, distortions and colour correction filters.

Replicator

Quickly set up mesmerizing patterns of repeating movies or graphics with Replicator. The patterns are built on a geometric shape that you select, such as a grid, spiral, or any geometry you create. Just select a shape and modify it until you get the desired effect. You can move cameras around Replicator patterns and combine them with other animations in 3D space.

FxPlug

Expand your options even further by bringing in third-party FxPlug filters and effects. Many of these effects work just like native Motion 4 effects, with the same onscreen controls, floating-point processing and GPU acceleration.

Using Particles

Add flames, smoke or sparkles in 2D or 3D.

Particles

Motion 4 makes it easy to create dazzling particle systems that explode into 3D space or swirl around other objects in your scene. Particle effects are an essential tool for designing animated elements as well as for generating real-world effects such as smoke and sparkles. Use any object, including a QuickTime movie, as a particle shape and add simulation behaviours such as Random Motion, Vortex, Gravity, or Edge Collision to send the particles flying through space in spectacular ways.
