Creates a realistic blur on areas in the source clip that are in motion, simulating the effect of shooting a moving object on film
The Continuum Motion Blur filter does exactly as its name implies. It creates a realistic blur on areas in the source clip that are in motion, simulating the effect of shooting a moving object on film. For example, apply the Motion Blur filter to a clip of a speeding car and the car’s motion would blur while the background would not. The blur is most pronounced when the object moves quickly and more subtle when it moves slowly. Motion blur is not visible if the image is static.
Based upon optical flow technology, this filter examines past and future frames to determine the motion of the pixels in the image. Depending upon the selected settings, a blur or a smear is applied to the pixels that move from one frame to the next. You can also use a clip in the timeline as a source for motion and then apply the motion from the chosen clip to the filtered track.
Caution: If you already own Boris Continuum, purchasing and installing a new unit or filter will overwrite the whole product and you will only be able to use the filter or unit you purchased.
