Special Features: |
|
| Quartz Composer uses the graphic and video effects embedded in Mac OS X (since 10.4, Tiger), which makes it very stable and powerful. The final files are very small and run in an infinite loop which eliminates the problem of trying to loop footage with particle simulation or chaotic movement for rendered files. It is a great addition to Modul8 or VDMX, which take the Quartz files (.qtz) directly without the need to render them before. | |
