ALL SpiceMaster video transitions are completely customizable to integrate them visually and beautifully into your scenes. Spices have been used by more than 250,000+ editors worldwide!
• The Compelling Power of Softness for Video Transitions. Softness is a simple but compelling treatment that the SpiceMaster plugins specialize in. It is a key advantage over most other video transitions and effects. SpiceMaster provides up to five types of adjustable softness -- use individually or blend them. Even for pure "cuts and dissolves" projects, SpiceMaster's ultra-soft 'directional' dissolves can add a wonderfully subtle hint of movement or geometry to lead the viewer's eye.
• Cutting-Edge Organic Effect Looks. SpiceMaster's huge range of organic effects/transition geometries include bursts, climatics, plasmas, erosions, strokes, vapors, etc. These can be ideal for cutting-edge effects in music videos, sports videos, wedding videos, corporate videos, etc. Apply them as an organic video transition between two clips or as an organic video effects animation in a SINGLE clip (see below).

• Unique Animated/Soft/Organic PIPs. No longer must you limit PIP effects (picture-in-picture effects) to hard-edged rectangles. SpiceMaster PRO can easily frame PIPs with a different shape, soft edge, glow, organic border, shadow, special texture, or numerous other edge treatments. You can even create PIPs with organic shapes that animate!
• Soft/Organic Text Effects for Titles & Graphics. SpiceMaster PRO powerfully supplements your built-in titler or title software. Reveal or hide text, titles, logos, lower-thirds, etc. with a beautiful 'directional' dissolve or a flowing, organic edge. Blend and animate content, colors, highlights, effects, etc. WITHIN text. Feather text rolls/crawls seamlessly as they enter or leave the frame, a graphic, or a PIP to add a classy touch.
