Now you can combine multiple frame images in
just minutes on a Windows-based PC. Fine hair detail, water, shadows,
smoke, glass and reflections, even blurred edges -- all composited
flawlessly and automatically with Ultimatte AdvantEdge!
All of our plug-ins offer an unparalleled method of combining multi-frame
images to produce a composited sequence of images. They allow you
to achieve realistic looking composited scenes with the same Academy-Award
winning technology that has made Ultimatte famous.
Ultimatte AdvantEdge lets your produce professional-quality composites
right on your desktop.
- Platform protection - AdvantEdge users get twice the flexibility
because it comes ready to go to work on Windows NT/2000/XP, Mac
OS 9/OS X, and Red Hat Linux for the one low price.
- Stylish user interface with automated controls. The user interface
has been designed to automate the control settings by easily sampling
different parts of the image or matte with a simple eyedropper
cursor. Once a sample has been taken the software automatically
sets multiple controls to find the best adjustment.
- Fully-linear mask - Eliminates hard edges - fine detail, blurred
images, transparencies and shadows visible in the foreground image
will all reproduce in the final composite.
- Video Correction - AdvantEdge is the world’s first matte
generation tool with video correction filtering (VCF) for the
4:1:1, 4:2:0, and even 4:2:2 digital video formats. VCF restores
the lost color information in compressed video formats and greatly
reduces the blocky artifacts found in most blue/greenscreen composites
using DV footage.
- Advanced Spill Suppression and Clean Up controls - Automatically
removes discoloration of foreground subjects caused by light reflecting
from the blue or green stage. Removing excessive backing color
spill from the foreground subject has been automated by sampling
the contaminated area with the eyedropper cursor and watching
AdvantEdge wash away the spill. Also Matte Clean Up now has individual
controls for softening and shrinking the matte.
- Roto Screen Correction - A revolutionary method for making
poorly shot footage usable by automatically creating an articulate
roto-mask to isolate the foreground without the tedious and labor
intensive work of traditional rotoscoping.
- Smart Matte Sizing - A totally new approach to computing the
matte density without allowing the matte to become over dense.
Over dense mattes are the most common mistake made in creating
traveling mattes. With Smart Matte Sizing it is virtually impossible
to over dense the matte.
- Color Conformance - Matches the look of the foreground to the
background for absolute realism.
- External matte - Allows overlaying an externally-generated
mask to "extend" the blue or green screen so that wide-angle
and long shots can be composited even though they overshoot the
screen.
