The latest version of this plugin package has introduced a revamped visual interface and enhanced effects such as Flare Designer, Lens Flare, PixelSort, WhipLash, and a wide array of new transition effects, animation tools, and much more. To take full advantage of this effects package, users can also reduce long rendering times with GPU acceleration, no matter if their target video is done in 2K, 4K, or 8K.
Boris FX Sapphire packs over 270 effects and 3000+ presets, covering all the areas of video editing such as Lights, Distortions, Looks, Blurs, Renders, Transitions, Time effects, and several other advanced tools that are regularly used by industry professionals.
