is here. We're packing fresh filters,

00:00:06.600 --> 00:00:08.160
upgrades to some favorites,

00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:10.240
and a new collection of presets

00:00:10.620 --> 00:00:12.700
built to excite and inspire.

00:00:13.720 --> 00:00:13.980
First

00:00:14.060 --> 00:00:16.280
up, Sapphire Advanced Defocus.

00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:19.200
This sophisticated defocus.

00:00:19.220 --> 00:00:23.220
blur brings creative digital freedom with the soul of physical

00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:26.980
glass. Take precise control over bokeh

00:00:27.040 --> 00:00:27.460
shaping,

00:00:28.040 --> 00:00:30.360
lens textures, cat eye highlights,

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:31.920
and even matte box

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:38.000
simulation. Choose the weathered look of vintage optics or modern digital clarity.

00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:41.180
Sapphire's legendary lighting

00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:43.000
effects just got a massive

00:00:43.100 --> 00:00:46.940
boost. We've reworked Sapphire Glare for modern

00:00:47.080 --> 00:00:49.020
high-end glints without changing

00:00:49.040 --> 00:00:52.200
your workflow. In Sapphire LensFlare,

00:00:52.580 --> 00:00:55.020
explore the additions to our pro-designed flare

00:00:55.080 --> 00:01:03.140
library. For flare designers, new offset modes make capturing anamorphic character or stylized streaks

00:01:03.180 --> 00:01:08.280
effortless. Texture is the building block of so many great effects.

00:01:08.820 --> 00:01:12.060
Sapphire Texture Ridges is a rock star of procedural

00:01:12.140 --> 00:01:17.300
noise. Create organic complex networks of sharp lines and smooth

00:01:17.380 --> 00:01:22.320
voids. Highly versatile for environmental effects and motion backgrounds.

00:01:23.860 --> 00:01:23.980
Use

00:01:24.020 --> 00:01:27.140
it standalone or inside the Sapphire Builder.

00:01:28.420 --> 00:01:31.970
In 2026.5, the Builder gets even stronger

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:36.370
with new tools. Experiment with new noise types in Noise

00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.180
and Dots.

00:01:39.300 --> 00:01:43.880
Use the flexible Dots tool for custom backgrounds or as building blocks for

00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:48.180
bigger effects. Builder lets you build your own effects once

00:01:48.600 --> 00:01:50.180
and share them across your entire

00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:51.980
team, regardless of host

00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:57.460
or OS. Get inspired by the new Builder effect presets.
