Lattice v 1.0 for Adobe Photoshop

Artikel Design, Artikel Lattice, Artikel Motion Graphic, Artikel Photoshop, Artikel Richard Rosenman,

[ #Photoshop #Design ]Developed by Richard Rosenman Lattice is an incredibly powerful particle based procedural lattice structure generator for Adobe Photoshop (or compatible host). It is a novel tool for designers, illustrators and digital artists for the creation of generative design. When combined with traditional commercial design, Lattice adds technical sophistication.

>> See Also: Learn Photoshop

Lattice’s core function is to interconnect particles with lines and points. Particles are initially generated in the form of a 3D cube, sphere or cylinder and are then manipulated by you through the use of effectors. When two particles are within a specified distance of each other, they are connected. This simplicity of ordered chaos is what makes generated content from Lattice so visually captivating.
Lattice provides a vast array of options to get your structure looking perfect. Line and point sizes can be locked with respects to one another, or fully independent. Line and point transparency can be affected by depth while line transparency can also be affected by length. Specify the minimum and maximum particle distance required for a connection as well as the maximum number of connections allowed.

Lattice’s effectors, the heart of the plugin, can produce all sorts of dynamic effects such as noise, turbulence, scales, translations, rotations, skews, tapers, twists, bends, waves and deletes. By combining multiple effectors together you can produce truly stunning structures of unlimited variations. Additionally, each effector has its own affective space fields so that you can modify only specific parts of the particle array. A falloff control allows you to softly feather the effect while other features such as field inversion and field axis allow endless fine-tuning of your effect.

Noise and turbulence effectors provide their own seed values so you can have an infinite number of generative effects. Delete allows you to remove particles from specific areas thus resulting in highly-customized structures.

Lattice doesn’t stop there. Packed with a seriously powerful coloring engine, each particle can inherit it’s own unique color based on axis or position. Coloring can be dictated by a single color, a mix of two colors in any number of three dimensions, a distribution of color spectrum in any number of dimensions and even image colors derived from a source image thereby facilitating integration into existing images. Both line and point colors can be individually overridden for a custom color and line intensity can be derived from line length resulting in gorgeous shading.

Interconnecting particles can have colors blended between the two resulting in gradients or averaged for more graphic results.

Lattice also features simulated depth of field! Easily bring particles in or out of focus within a viewing plane. Adjust the lens for an increased or decreased field of view and exaggerated perspective.

Lattice also boasts the capability to import OBJ models! This means you can create your own custom 3D model in your software of choice and import it into Lattice. Once inside, you can rotate, scale, and translate your model, and use effectors to manipulate it just as you would any built-in Lattice particle array. Working with custom 3D models inside Lattice provides limitless creative possibilities.

Remember that by using effector space fields, you can customize any specific parts of your OBJ model, complete with falloff feathering. Lattice can import OBJ models created with your software of choice.
Lattice provides a large, simplified and user-friendly interface with all the necessary features you’d expect. A live status bar displays statistical info such as the object type, active number of points and lines, how many effectors are currently in use and the frames per second (FPS) for performance measures. Any object can be saved or retrieved at the click of a button.
Lattice adds a level of sophistication to your work making it a must-have plugin in the arsenal of any artist and designer.Lattice is 100% multi-threaded capable of using an unlimited number of cores for ultimate speed.

Ultraflares v1.0 for Photoshop

Artikel Compositing, Artikel Photoshop, Artikel Richard Rosenman, Artikel Ultraflares,

[ #Photoshop ]Richard Rosenman has announced the immediate availability of Ultraflares v1.0 for Photoshop, the ultimate lens flare and light studio for Adobe Photoshop and compatible hosts!

Backed by over a year and a half of research and development, Ultraflares boasts some of the most advanced and realistic lens flare features available today. Ultraflares comes packed with hundreds of presets including over 65 natural flares, over 60 stylized flares, over 35 glints and over 40 light leaks, all modeled after [i]real-world[/i] light phenomena.

Ultraflares is much more than a lens flare plugin; it’s a full feature light studio. Not only does it allow the artist to produce sophisticated lens flares, but also the ability to generate a wide variety of complex camera lens effects including the generation of volumetric lights, glows, light glints, star filters, sun glows, star bursts, film burns & aberrations, light leaks, highlight accents, photo filters, bokehs, lens textures, and much, much more. It is an indispensable tool for 3D artists looking to push their 3D renders to the next level.

Ultraflares features stunningly-realistic iris effects such as spherical aberration, aberration scale, aberration offset and asymmetry for replicating ultra-realistic natural lens flares. Circular completion controls how much of the iris diameter (in degrees) is visible while light distribution, a new and truly unique feature specific to Ultraflares only, controls the illumination across the iris with it’s respective angle. Chromatic aberration can be globally applied to the entire flare while spectral coloring can work on any number of specific objects. Add subtle touches like iris edge ringing to push the realism to the next level.

Ultraflares brings the power of lens textures to the artist’s fingertips. Select any lens texture and watch as Ultraflares realistically illuminates the texture according to it’s lens flare color, location and structure. Choose Ultraflares’ own highly configurable procedural lens orbs object or use custom textures of any kind. Embedded custom textures in compatible file formats such as PSD allow Ultraflares to easily toggle between multiple textures.

Ultraflares is the definitive solution for any hobbyist or professional digital artist, designer or photographer demanding cutting-edge, high-quality lens flares and light effects. Check out the website for a full list of features and detailed flare galleries.

MBL PRO 1.1 for Adobe Photoshop

Artikel MBL PRO, Artikel Photoshop, Artikel Richard Rosenman,

[ #Photoshop ]Richard Rosenman has announced MBL PRO (Motion Blur Lab PRO) - an Adobe Photoshop (or compatible host) plugin capable of producing high-quality, multi-directional and variable-strength motion blur effects quickly and efficiently using motion vectors.

>> See Also: Download 35 Photoshop Plugins FREE from Richard Rosenman

MBL PRO was developed in an effort to achieve complex motion blur effects difficult to produce with today’s existing digital retouching software. It is of particular interest to professional photographers, retouchers and digital artists everywhere.

MBL PRO features numerous modes of operation for simulating virtually any type of real-world motion blur. Single vector blurs are useful for linear motion blurs. Zoom blurs are useful for depth-driven motion blurs while spin blurs are useful for rotationally-driven motion blurs. Both offer sophisticated ellipticity and orientation options for dealing with varying perspectives. Finally, multiple vector blurs are useful for complex, multi-directional and variable-strength motion blurs. All motion blur types feature various distribution methods such as constant, increasing, decreasing and soft. Motion blur can be introduced to subjects, backgrounds or both.

MBL PRO can work on a single composited image or multiple elements broken up into separate layers. Layers can use transparency for motion blur masking. Additionally, any of these workflows can be combined with selections for area masking and even feathered selections for area masking with falloff.

MBL PRO was developed in an effort to achieve complex motion blur effects difficult to produce with today’s existing digital retouching software. It is of particular interest to professional photographers, retouchers and digital artists everywhere.

MBL PRO features numerous modes of operation for simulating virtually any type of real-world motion blur. Single vector blurs are useful for linear motion blurs. Zoom blurs are useful for depth-driven motion blurs while spin blurs are useful for rotationally-driven motion blurs. Both offer sophisticated ellipticity and orientation options for dealing with varying perspectives. Finally, multiple vector blurs are useful for complex, multi-directional and variable-strength motion blurs. All motion blur types feature various distribution methods such as constant, increasing, decreasing and soft. Motion blur can be introduced to subjects, backgrounds or both.

MBL PRO can work on a single composited image or multiple elements broken up into separate layers. Layers can use transparency for motion blur masking. Additionally, any of these workflows can be combined with selections for area masking and even feathered selections for area masking with falloff.

MBL PRO is 100% multi-threaded capable of using an unlimited number of cores for ultimate speed. MBL PRO supports both 8 bits / channel and 16 bits / channel color modes for professional workflows.

[ #Photoshop #Lightroom ]Alien Skin's Exposure 6, the latest version of its flagship photography effects software is now available.

What's New In Exposure 6

Jimmy Beech, quickly covers what is new in Exposure 6. Excited to see some of the new features



Exposure 6 brings all the creative tools of the traditional darkroom to the world of digital, such as the look of discontinued films, printing techniques, and borders and textures. Popular classic films like Kodachrome, Polaroid and TRI-X have been carefully analyzed in order to faithfully simulate their characteristic tonal ranges and grain structures. Over 450 preset effects can be applied with a single mouse click, helping photographers achieve their desired look quickly. Exposure 6 integrates both color and black-and-white processing so there is no need to switch between tools.

Continuing the theme of integration, all the powerful functionality of Alien Skin’s creative focus and lens simulation program, Bokeh, has now been rolled into Exposure, thus eliminating the need to jump between programs. As such, Exposure now provides simple tools for photographers to draw attention to their subject by manipulating focus, vignette and depth of field. From fast lens simulation through to tilt/shift and motion blur looks, Exposure 6 offers an endless array of creative options.

“With Exposure 6, not only have we worked to enhance the rich feature set available to photographers, but also to streamline the software to help them focus on creating extraordinary images faster than ever,” said Alien Skin CEO, Finley Lee. “It’s about helping photographers realize their artistic vision as quickly and easily as possible”.

Along with the inclusion of Bokeh, Exposure’s user interface has been refined and enhanced in order to provide better aesthetics and functionality without compromising user-friendliness. A new basic control panel contains sliders for global adjustments to areas such as exposure, contrast, clarity and vibrance for faster editing. The image processing engine has also been rewritten and now offers full-sized instant previews. This makes it easy to visualize subtle differences between presets and facilitates rapid experimentation to find the right look.

Based on user feedback, Exposure 6 offers limitless variety in the ability to add border and texture overlays. Out of the box, Exposure 6 includes many new lighting effects such as realistic sun flare, and authentic vintage borders developed by world-renowned photographer Parker J Pfister. Users are also now able to import their own custom borders and textures using the built-in importing tool. Likewise, sharing and syncing presets, textures and borders across multiple computers is also now easy to do in Exposure 6.

Exposure 6 integrates with the popular tools many photographers use in their professional workflow: Adobe® Photoshop®, Lightroom®, and Apple® Aperture®. Exposure 6 can also be launched as a stand-alone application.

To help users get started and for advanced techniques, the Alien Skin website has a library of tutorial videos and example images.

Pricing and Availability

Exposure 6 is available through www.alienskin.com for $149 USD. Owners of any version of Exposure may upgrade for $69 USD. Free upgrades will be automatically sent to everyone who purchased Exposure 5 directly from Alien Skin Software .
