Parameters:
-
Load Preset:
Push-button
.
Brings up the Preset Browser to browse all available presets for this effect.
-
Save Preset:
Push-button
.
Brings up the Preset Save dialog to save a preset for this effect.
-
Frequency:
Default:
3,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
The spatial frequency of the texture. Increase to zoom out, decrease to zoom in.
-
Freq Rel X:
Default:
1,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
The relative horizontal frequency of the texture. Increase to stretch it vertically or decrease to stretch it horizontally.
-
Loop Freq:
Default:
4,
Range:
1 or greater.
Frequency of the loops within the noise patterns. Increase for more concentric loops, decrease for fewer.
-
Phase Start:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
The phase of the ring loops. Shifts inwards or outwards.
-
Phase Speed:
Default:
0.05,
Range:
any.
The automatic change in phase over time.
-
Seed:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Used to initialize the random number generator. The actual seed value is not significant, but different seeds give different results and the same value should give a repeatable result.
-
Thickness:
Default:
0.1,
Range:
-1 to 2.
Controls the thickness of the loops.
-
Softness:
Default:
0.2,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
The softness of the edges of the loop shapes. Increase for smoother edges or to reduce aliasing.
-
Smooth:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater.
Amount to blur the loop shapes before combining. Increase for a defocus look, or to help remove aliasing artifacts.
-
Shift:
X & Y, Default:
[0 0],
Range:
any.
Translation offset of the texture. Since the texture is procedurally generated it can be shifted with no repeating units or seams occurring.
-
Brightness1:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the brightness of Color1. Increase for more contrast.
-
Color1:
Default rgb:
[1 1 1].
The color of the 'brighter' parts of the texture. The colors of the result are determined by an interpolation between Color0 and Color1.
-
Color0:
Default rgb:
[0 0 0].
The color of the 'darker' parts of the texture.
-
Offset0:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
Adds this value to color0. Decrease to a negative value for more contrast.
-
Saturation:
Default:
1,
Range:
any.
Scales the color saturation. Increase for more intense colors. Set to 0 for monochrome.
-
Combine:
Popup menu, Default: Screen
.
Determines how the texture is combined with the Background.
-
Texture Only:
gives only the texture image with no Background.
- Mult: the texture is multiplied by the Background.
- Add: the texture is added to the Background.
- Screen: the texture is blended with the Background using a screen operation.
- Difference: the result is the difference between the texture and Background.
- Overlay: the texture is combined with the Background using an overlay function.
- Mult: the texture is multiplied by the Background.
-
Texture Only:
gives only the texture image with no Background.
-
Scale Back:
Default:
1,
Range:
any,
Shared
.
The background brightness is scaled by this value before being combined with the texture.
-
Invert:
Popup YES-NO, Default: No
.
If enabled, the resulting texture colors are inverted. This is similar to swapping Color0 and Color1.
Params2:
-
Loops1 Bright:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the brightness of the first set of loops. Set to zero to remove them.
-
Loops2 Bright:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the brightness of the second set of loops. Set to zero to remove them.
-
Loops3 Bright:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the brightness of the third set of loops. Set to zero to remove them.
-
Loops1 Color:
Default rgb:
[1 1 1].
Color of the first set of loops.
-
Loops2 Color:
Default rgb:
[1 1 1].
Color of the second set of loops.
-
Loops3 Color:
Default rgb:
[1 1 1].
Color of the third set of loops.
-
Loops1 Thick:
Default:
0,
Range:
-1 to 1.
Adds this amount to the thickness of the first set of loops.
-
Loops2 Thick:
Default:
0,
Range:
-1 to 1.
Adds this amount to the thickness of the second set of loops.
-
Loops3 Thick:
Default:
0,
Range:
-1 to 1.
Adds this amount to the thickness of the third set of loops.
-
Loops1 Freq:
Default:
1,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
Relative frequency of the first set of loops.
-
Loops2 Freq:
Default:
1,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
Relative frequency of the second set of loops.
-
Loops3 Freq:
Default:
1,
Range:
0.01 or greater.
Relative frequency of the third set of loops.
-
Combine Loops:
Popup menu, Default: Diff
.
Operation used to combine the colors of the three sets of loops.
-
Add:
adds them together.
- Screen: uses a screen transfer mode to combine them.
- Diff: uses a difference operator to combine them.
- Comp: composites the second over the third, and the first over that.
- Screen: uses a screen transfer mode to combine them.
-
Add:
adds them together.
Params3:
-
Mocha:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater,
Shared
.
Brings up the Mocha window for tracking footage and generating masks.
-
Blur Mocha:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater,
Shared
.
Blurs the Mocha Mask by this amount before using. This can be used to soften the edges or quantization artifacts of the mask, and smooth out the time displacements.
-
Mocha Opacity:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 to 1,
Shared
.
Controls the strength of the Mocha mask. Lower values reduce the intensity of the effect.
-
Invert Mocha:
Check-box, Default:
off,
Shared
.
If enabled, the black and white of the Mocha Mask are inverted before applying the effect.
-
Show Mocha Only:
Check-box, Default:
off,
Shared
.
Bypass the effect and show the Mocha Mask itself.
-
Bypass Mocha:
Check-box, Default:
off,
Shared
.
Ignore the Mocha Mask and apply the effect to the entire source clip.
