A little bit of stretch will likely go unnoticed and will help greatly in reducing any apparent disparity of distortion. “Protection Override” is a slider that varies from 0 to 1 … this control can be used to add a little bit of linear stretch back into the otherwise protected area of the image. “Protection Width ” is a slider that varies from 1 to 99 … as it’s name implies, this slider controls the width of the region of protection and is a percentage of the original image width. “Protection Centre” is a slider that varies from -1 to +1 … give it a wiggle and you’ll see that it controls the placement of the region of protection, left (-1) to right (+1). There are a number of pretty self-explanatory sliders, all of which help to define the display of what I call the “region of protection” ie the area of the image within which the pixel aspect is most fully corrected to display in it’s original aspect. Lets take a look at the effect’s controls, and the default settings that produce the above effect. A narrow center region of the image has been corrected to display in it’s original 4:3 aspect ratio, whilst the areas of the image lying outside of that protected region are gradually stretched to fill the remainder of the 16:9 frame. Right off the bat you’re going to see a default correction applied.
#Fxfactory for snow leopard pro
Using a 4:3 clip within a 16:9 edit in Premiere Pro Well I happen to think GoPro camera’s are pretty awesome, so when FxFactory hit version 4.0 and introduced host support for Adobe Premiere Pro, I decided it was finally time to check out the developer side of the FxFactory plugin system … I’m glad I did. It turns out that their awesome little camera shoots some of it’s very best images in 4:3 mode … and they and their customers have been some of the most active users of Andy’s Elastic Aspect. “Why?” you ask, have I suddenly re-worked and re-released this plugin now? You can go ahead and thank (or blame) GoPro. “The basic prerequisite for using this effect properly is first to tell your NLE to stretch your otherwise 4:3 clip to fill your 16:9 sequence.” OK, so how does this plug-in work? Errrm … pretty much the same way …” So how does that work? It uses a proprietary pixel stretching algorithm to leave the center of the screen relatively undistorted whilst stretching the pixels more and more the nearer they approach the edge of the screen.

“Your big ass widescreen TV at home has a progressive stretch mode that you can switch on when you’re watching normal 4:3 broadcasts … it makes the picture fill that gloriously wide screen without everything seeming too obviously stretched. What are they for? Well the basic premise that I wrote back in 2008 hasn’t really changed … In this release you’ll find three versions : Classic, Simple and Max. Originally released in March 2008, these FxFactory based plugins are recreations of the old Andy’s Elastic Aspect plugin for Final Cut Pro (Legacy).Īlthough the much lamented FCP of old has since passed into history, through the magic of FxFactory you can still enjoy many of your favourite old effects in all your fancy modern FxFactory supported hosts … and now Andy’s Elastic Aspect plugin is proud to join the fray.
