Twitch Progress

You are seeing an actual screen shot of the new Video Copilot plugin Twitch. This little idea has come a long way and is really starting to sizzle. Initially an FFX preset for After Effect only, the concept is now a real Plug-In!

What this means is that you will be able to use Twitch with almost any FXplug application such as: After Effects (+mac Universal), Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Motion, and several others too.

Of course, I couldn’t do all of this myself and so I have partnered with a very talented developer that is helping bring this project to life. He also offers capabilities that weren’t available in the FFX preset format, which means the feature list has improved and the speed and power is incredible.

We are working very hard on this project and hope to see it available soon. With all the new features and benefits of the Plug-in architecture, I hope you guys understand a small price increase from what was originally planned. With the new Plug-in developer and necessary testing for outside software hosts like Final Cut and Premiere; it’s no longer just a ‘weekend project’. I can assure you that it will be under $49 and I’m trying my hardest to keep it as low as possible.

After realizing the possibilities of multi-software Plug-in and new features just not possible as a preset, I knew that creating an actual plug-in was the only way to make this product longer lasting and more valuable to everyone.

I can’t wait to start using it more and showing off all the new stuff. More info coming soon.

UPDATE: Here is a screen shot of the Effects Panel:

Wow this is awesome news! I hope it’s ready soon, I have a project that could really use it. Thanks for keeping it affordable, most plug ins cost hundreds of dollars. Just don’t get any ideas :)

You have an ambitious soul Andrew, don’t ever lose that.

Wow, well done!

Can’t wait

wooo!

Very much looking forward to this plug in from you Andrew, will most definately buy it and support you! Thanks for the good and hard work, keep it up!

Looks great something like that will come in real handy.
“Under $49″? seems a bit exact.

Anyway looks like a great plugin with a great price, thanks!

agreed with above. looks good

I’d also like to add that it’s funny how I have only been checking your site a few times a day, but for the past few entries of the blog I’ve ended up checking it normally less than ten minutes after you’ve just posted a new one.
It’s also strange how my name changed from Salmon Sandwich to Salmon Casserole continuously and I don’t realise until I posted…

Anyway to repeat (for the third time?) , Twitch looks like a great project.

looks great.. congrats!

I really wannna use Twitch!!!

great!Will buy but where is the medicial tut? :D

Why do we need to pay for this tiny little thing ??? … Ok I’m leaving…;) I get my DVDs today !! I’m happy => this is why i’m making bad jokes ! ;)

Keep going Andrew and thanks a lot for everything !

Can’t wait, Looks fantastic!

Can’t wait, looks great. Under $49? $48.99 by any chance ;) lol
Keep going Andrew, bring on the Medical Tutorial

I have already fall in love for this plugin ;) The first teaser was amazing !
Looking forward to see a teaser will all features Twitch offer.

Awesome….nice work Andrew. Looking forward to the plug-in. That will be a great tool to add to everyone’s toolbox. Very cool that your working towards cross platform functionality too….that will be killer! :)

Nice!
Can you use the twitch on other stuff like, text?
So the text is twitching, but the rest of the video plays as normal?

looks good!

Can’t wait to purchase!

Can’t wait to purchase!

Oh I like the new updated screenshot.

I’ll have to start looking at how you can make these.

WOO-HOO! Can’t wait!!

Will twich run on German After Effects Installation?
The other presets don´t work…
Greetings
Timo

Can’t wait~~~~~~~~~~

Nice stuff! Compatibility is the key! Well, hopefully, if I go to the US to study at college, I’ll totally buy it. My fingers are crossed! :P

You hope we don’t mind the price increase? Hahaha. Compared to other products, your products are extremely cheap (price-wise, definitely not in quality). $50? I mean, c’mon. Similar stuff from other people is like 100x more expensive. The quality and knowledge you offer for such a small price is insane….

Hmm… maybe I should shut up before I convince you to charge more… :-X

Outstanding!! The price is awesome too!!

Outstanding!!! the price is right too!!

You’re sellin your soul

ETA? October? pray tell…………….

Oh, and because it is a Plug-in, it will work with any language of After Effects. All of the code is happening in the Plug.

Well I know I’m “Twitching” over “TWITCH” :)
Can’t wait to use it.

that is really exciting… I’m happy for you!

I can’t wait to play with the plugin.. I need so more products to buy from you! I’ve been talking to one of my professors… She has the entire Digital juice collection… (she doesn’t even use any of it) and when I showed her your site she was excited about more video stuff she could buy…

anywhoo… why is there little arrows next to the drop-down arrows?

congratulations !

Wow, I have been waiting for you to upgrade to a FFX plugin. This is very nice, nice job.

Andrew, be assured that some of us understand the small increase in price as I’m sure it will be a lot more useful than some expensive plug-ins out there.

Hi again AK ^^

I recently saw Man on Fire (yeah, I’m a little bit late, I know :P ) and I was wondering how could I reproduce the same type of effect, with speed and ease. Seems like you thought about this before me :D

Anyway, can’t wait for the finished product… It offers many possibilities. Another genius thing. :)

Oh, and we all hope it’s “just” a beginning for VideoCopilots cool plug-ins ^^

FXplug ? So that means it’s going to use GPU acceleration ? That would be sick.

This look really exciting. Can’t wait to give it a go. Any need for Beta Testers ; )

Will the plug in work for AE 6.5 pro?

Release date, please… you’re killing us!

I think this is going to be a great preset, and well worth the price! Awesome job!!!

Looks like a great product and I think the ability to “twitch” other effects parameters is going to huge! I can’t wait to play around with twitching expressions, etc…

AK – Don’t sell yourself short! $49 is a great value and at the risk of being unpopular, you should charge more. Everyone should know how much good will and help you already give to the After Effects community, I thank you, but don’t do it for free!
