Red Giant

Red Giant's versatile effects package just received a big update.

Red Giant has just issued a big update to its popular "Universe" plugin. Chief amongst the updates are a brand new Dashboard for the Premiere and After Effects versions of the software. This allows users to find effects much more quickly, as well as being able to save shortcuts to favourite and recently used presets. A variation on the Dashboard is also present in non-Adobe versions of the plugin.

Effects wise the main news here is the inclusion of five new text effects.

Type Cast

Typecast lets users animate text properties like color, opacity, size, position and rotation by the word or character.

Type On

Type on creates computer terminal-style type reveals and includes lots of options for customization and randomization.

Screen Text

Screen Text fills the screen with scrolling code to create the look of an old-school or modern computer terminal.
