WEBVTT 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:09.260 Boris FX Continuum 2026 continues its tradition to speed up your video effects. This includes brand-new AI-powered Face ML, 00:00:09.300 --> 00:00:14.070 Matte Refine ML, Jump Cut Fixer ML, and- Depth Wipe 00:00:14.120 --> 00:00:17.980 ML. To pull better keys, there's a revamped 00:00:18.020 --> 00:00:25.820 Primatte Studio. It's faster, it's got a new dedicated workspace, and custom Boris FX modules that you just won't find 00:00:25.880 --> 00:00:32.100 in any other keyer. I'm Ben Brownlee for Boris FX. There's a lot to cover if I'm gonna do this 00:00:32.140 --> 00:00:32.240 in 00:00:32.299 --> 00:00:36.020 five minutes, so let's get going. 00:00:38.140 --> 00:00:44.089 Let's start with the new AI- tools. Over the past few years, Continuum has built up a number of AI-powered 00:00:44.140 --> 00:00:44.480 tools 00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:51.940 for masking, image restoration, and other cool video tasks. In Continuum 2026, we 00:00:52.100 --> 00:01:00.940 have even more. Face ML, is a model designed to isolate different areas in the face. Applying it' will automatically 00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:08.660 select everything, but I can choose which elements I really need. Obviously great for beauty or digital makeup. Beauty Studio 00:01:08.700 --> 00:01:15.240 gets a turbo upgrade with this, meaning you can now clean up skin with a single click. Check out the 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:23.750 upgraded effects editor for faster, workflows too. It's worth pointing out that Face ML is part of the PixelChooser. This 00:01:23.780 --> 00:01:25.020 means that any effect can be 00:01:25.060 --> 00:01:33.100 limited to or excluded from parts of the face. Jump Cut Fixer ML is a subtly named transition filter 00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:39.380 for fixing jump cuts. Simply add it' to the cut point, adjust the length, and it will seamlessly 00:01:39.440 --> 00:01:40.120 morph the cut 00:01:40.460 --> 00:01:47.580 using our custom AI models. Let's play spot the cut. If you want to use this for more stylistic transitions, 00:01:47.620 --> 00:01:50.280 see what happens. 00:01:51.940 --> 00:01:59.540 Speaking of transitions, Depth Wipe ML is another new one powered by our depth map models. Wipe through 3D locations 00:01:59.800 --> 00:02:00.960 rather than just across the 00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:08.180 screen, or combine it with other effects to sweep color through the image. There's a lot of creative 00:02:08.258 --> 00:02:13.370 uses for you to explore with this one. For keying, we have a revamped Primatte Studio, 00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:21.200 completely GPU accelerated for faster rendering speeds. There's also a new way of working. If you want to continue 00:02:21.220 --> 00:02:27.140 building your key in the host app, you can still do that, but check out the new custom UI. 00:02:27.180 --> 00:02:34.950 The cool Primatte keying algorithm is great, but what really boosts Primatte Studio are the custom Boris FX modules. AI-powered 00:02:34.980 --> 00:02:42.660 denoising, Edge Cleaner for revealing fine details, and a number of color tools, including Color Link to automatically match the 00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:52.010 background clip before doing any necessary adjustments with Color Correct. There's built-in advanced spill suppression and light wrap functionality, and 00:02:52.040 --> 00:02:59.220 we even have built in Mocha for more complex garbage or hold-in masks. One thing people asked about with Witness 00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:05.020 Protection ML was more flexibility with the masks. Being able to blur out all the faces in the crowd 00:03:05.100 --> 00:03:11.300 just by applying the effect was huge, but what if we wanted to un-blur just a few of these faces? 00:03:11.320 --> 00:03:17.360 Previously, we would use the built-in Mocha planar tracker to mask those out, but now I can click on' Detect, 00:03:17.480 --> 00:03:25.109 render backwards and forwards, and all of these faces across the clip are available as shape layers. This means it's 00:03:25.200 --> 00:03:34.590 easy to choose who stays in and who's blurred out. PixelChooser has been mentioned a couple of times already, but 00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:42.180 it really is an integral part of what makes Continuum filters special. The ability to create mattes, masks, and gradients 00:03:42.200 --> 00:03:45.200 to limit effects without having to resort to multiple layers 00:03:45.540 --> 00:03:53.040 is huge. And it's got even better. I can take a fast Mocha matte created with the object brush and 00:03:53.060 --> 00:03:53.260 Matte 00:03:53.269 --> 00:03:55.080 Assist and uncover 00:03:55.160 --> 00:03:57.910 more details by turning on Matte Refine 00:03:58.040 --> 00:04:06.770 ML. Nice. As mentioned before, Face ML joins the other ways to choose pixels, and all these can be combined 00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:14.160 together to get the best out of the tool set. PixelChooser brings back and expands on its own apply modes. 00:04:14.200 --> 00:04:19.959 We can apply the matte after or before the effect, or both. Plus, in great news for editors 00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.340 that don't want to have to add more layers than absolutely 00:04:22.420 --> 00:04:27.400 necessary, we have other modes that will composite the effect back onto an untouched 00:04:27.460 --> 00:04:35.040 background or create an alpha that lets you swap out the background. We have deep dive tutorials that go 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:37.940 into all of these on borisfx.com, 00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:44.160 and this is just a sampling of the new features. I haven't said anything about updated Particle Illusion 00:04:44.200 --> 00:04:48.300 emitters and animation functionality, I've missed out on some new filter updates, 00:04:48.900 --> 00:04:54.060 and the big AI model improvements.
