We had actually hoped to have thought of everything when designing and implementing the "predecessor" PiP-Studio 3 ... But after two successful years with PiP-Studio 3, there were still some customer requests that had to be supplemented.
Furthermore, there was a request from a large number of users, especially with Casablanca4 / Bogart Windows, for the ?object tracker? that is very popular among Casablanca3.
Since the analysis of the two wishes showed a lot of matching functions and parallels, we decided not to build an independent object tracker.
Instead, a PiP Studio 4 was created, which has great new functions, a whole series of new graphics and, as the most important and fundamental innovation, an object "tracker".
This "tracker" has been significantly improved compared to the old object tracker and is responsible for everything that has to do with moving picture elements, their detection and tracking. The tracker analyzes whatever you put it on and produces super-soft movements that can also be changed, saved and used in a variety of ways in the form of paths.
In addition to Bogart for Windows, PiP-Studio 4 is also available for Casablanca3 / DVC. Users who already use the older object tracker there also know its weaknesses:
Objects from / to off the screen cannot be tracked.
Lost or incorrect tracking cannot be corrected in any way.
The same tracking again and again, if several elements should be attached to an object.
All of this is easily possible in PiP-Studio 4!
The innovations compared to PiP Studio 3 at a glance:
Powerful object tracker with many options and simple operation
PiP quick selection for easy selection and overview
Mask PiP to "pixelate" people / objects or to cover them with blur or color - or to emphasize them
?1: 1? switch, in order to be able to use cut out scene parts congruently as ?level?
Interpolation tool, with which changes in size, transparency, cutting, rotation, etc. are possible across any number of base points.
Probably the most powerful program for Bogart, which every ambitious filmmaker can test as a demo version. It is recommended to load the movements and compositions provided in the archive of the ?Tools? tab.
