v5.0.x Digital Anarchy Beauty Box Video

Great features of Beauty Box Video 5.0 Plugin

Beauty Box Video 4.0 is the makeup artist you didn’t have. Our skin retouching video plugin for After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, Avid, and OpenFX applications, like Davinci Resolve, is simple to use. This video effects plugin saves hours of your production time while making your client look years younger.

Easy Skin Smoothing and Retouching

The Skin Smoothing controls in the Beauty Box Video plugin work together to smooth over wrinkles and blemishes in your subject’s skin tones. The three main controls make it simple to dial in the amount of retouching. From very subtle to more airbrushed. It keeps the important features of the face sharp while reducing or eliminating wrinkles and blemishes.

The Magic of Automatic Masking

The magic button: Analyze Frame. This is where the real work happens, yet you barely have to do anything with this plugin. Click Analyze Frame to have Beauty Box Video analyze your footage and set the skin tones. These skin tones then get tracked throughout the footage. It’s an automatic process that creates a great mask that adjusts as your subject moves and speaks.

Fast Rendering

Beauty Box supports both CUDA and OpenCL, allowing us to get real-time or near real-time playback with NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards. This gives you incredibly fast rendering regardless of what platform or host application! We built Beauty Box to work fast so you can get the look you want quickly and get back to the rest of your edit.

Shine Removal and Color Correction

Beauty Box can solve other skin retouching issues as well. With controls for reducing shine caused by oily skin and bright lights and built-in color correction, you have all the tools you need for retouching. It’s a comprehensive plugin for doing beauty work.

Preset Styles

Besides skin retouching, the Styles preset included in Beauty Box has dozens of visual effects and color correction that you can add on top of your footage. Whether you’re searching for an Old-Hollywood glow or a highly stylized sunburst effect the Styles preset menu makes it easy to add interesting looks to your footage.

New in Version 4.2:

Beauty Box 4.2 is released and contains some important updates for GPUs and fixes some bugs.

It should now work better with Resolve and graphics cards with 1GB or less of memory. In some cases, if you ran out of memory, the render would just fail. It should now revert back to the CPU. So it’ll be slower but at least it’ll render.

Color Correction and Shine Removal should also work better, as some bugs there were fixed.

New in Version 4.1:

The latest release of Beauty Box Video (v4.1) contains a bunch of fixes for video cards that use OpenCL (AMD, Intel). So if you’re using those cards it’s a worthwhile download. If you’re using Resolve and Nvidia cards, you also want to download it as there’s a bug with CUDA and Resolve and you’ll want to use Beauty Box in OpenCL mode until we fix the CUDA bug.

It’s not available for Avid yet. (01/30/2017)

New in Version 4.01:

• Adobe CC 2015 is now supported.
• If you applied Flicker Free or Posterize Time to a Photo-Jpeg or .mxf file and tried to render it you’d get a ‘Error Compiling Movie’ error.  This is now fixed.
• Beauty Box users on Windows were having trouble connecting to our licensing server. This is now fixed. So the regular serial number will now work without any problems.

New in Version 4:

New in Version 3:

3.0 takes the best selling and most awarded skin smoothing technology available and makes it even better.
