What’s wrong with Boris? It is the best bang for the buck in plug-ins, bar none. Is it too expensive still for you?

Kevin,
I would agree with you completely before our friends at Boris split the functionality of Continuum Complete so that you now have to buy a set for AE and a different one for FCP. Back then it was a good buy. Now it’s pricey.
Have a wonderful day.

Its not the same broadcast world anymore in the local TV market. It’s always do more with less. We have 3 editors and two animation artists that share stuff back and forth between programs. We are connected via fiber and use a common server. However each machine has priority over their own drive partitions.
At least 3 of us have use both programs to complete our work. We need a product that will blanket license or is more affordable to buy multiple copies. Everyone in the chain needs the video effects so that their machine will read the effects off the other persons project if they have to make changes or get something out of those projects done on another machine.
The product also needs to be available to both Final Cut and AE on the same machine without buying a copy for each program.

I agree with you Peter on Noise Industries plug-ins. I have used them extensively on my new demo reel. I also use the hell-outta CoreMelt’s plug-ins too.
These two plug-in sets combined with parameter behaviors in Motion is sick!!
