Perfect companion to iLife. About Morph Age
The application for morphing/warping images and movies on Mac OS X, such as faces, and save the result to a QuickTime movie. Morph Age is the perfect companion to iLife (iMovie, iPhoto, iDVD) for creating stunning video of your friends and family and even to Final Cut Pro for creating broadcast quality special effects.

Morph Age works by allowing you to define curves on one or more images. Any change made on the curves is reflected on the resulting image through the corresponding distorsion and morphing effect.
Morph Age can animate warp curves independently, so that different parts of the image moves at different times (the eyes, then the ears, then the mouth…). Also, animation effects are available, such as springy motion. Morph Age shows the result in real time, so that you can quickly and easily prototype the transformation.

Morph Age has an extremely fast, novel rendering engine that combines CPU operations (faster on G5) and graphic card power. It enables real-time rendering on mega pixel images still being accurate to sub-pixel.]]> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:00:00 PST http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/finalcutstudio/scenedetectorforrawvideoandfinalcutxmlfiles.html Automatically finds scenes in raw video files or in user-selected clips in Final Cut XML projects and adds markers at their positions (updating XML file) or exports scene positions in different formats (CSV, HTML, EDL, etc) or even produces About Scene Detector for raw video and Final Cut XML files
A utility that will analyze your footage, directly or referenced by Final Cut XML file.

If input was a Final Cut XML file, it asks you to choose the clip to work on, then detects the positions of scenes and generates a Final Cut project in XML format with markers added at the position of each scene.

Alternatively it can work directly with any raw video file - it this case it can export information about scenes in various formats (EDL, CSV, HTML and others) or produce a video files for each scene found.

Scene Detector uses QuickTime for super fast decoding of media. It can utilize several CPU threads; it allows to pause search process; threshold for similarity of frames is user-configurable!]]> Mon, 14 Jul 2008 00:00:00 PST http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/finalcutstudio/titleexchange.html A unique tool which makes complicated things simple and fast when juggling with subtitles in the Final Cut Studio environment.
