Voting on new tools to decide what gets made next.Porting of some existing Red Giant products to Universe (Premium).Regularly updated (using our dev tool, Supernova).So what all do you get when you sign up for Universe? Through Universe Labs, members get to help choose what effects and transitions Red Giant builds next - while premium members are eligible for invitations to early betas of new products, allowing users to give early feedback and actively help shape Universe’s expansion over time. What truly makes Universe unique, however, is its community aspects.

Premium membership is available through monthly and yearly subscription, as well as a one-time lifetime membership fee. In addition to the expanding library of free plug-ins, Universe also offers Premium membership, which gives users access to even more tools - including new effects and transitions, as well as existing Red Giant favorites ported over to the new Universe platform (such as Knoll Light Factory EZ, Holomatrix, Retrograde, and ToonIt). Video is no longer available: /87001310Īnd here are a few brief excerpts from the press release that shed more light on this unique tool: Here's the product launch video from Red Giant: And the best part, membership in Universe is free (well, mostly). Because Universe is also an online community, members can actively participate in the creation of new plugins by voting for which ones get made next and beta testing new plugins before they're released to the masses. Think of it like a Creative Cloud membership, but for Red Giant plugins instead of Adobe software. The plugins that are included in Universe have all been built from the ground up specifically for this platform, and they're all super-speedy due to their inherent GPU acceleration. So what exactly is Red Giant Universe? Well, simply put, it's a community that provides its members access to a host of different post production and motion graphics plugins for the major editing platforms. In fact, Universe might just revolutionize the way plugins are created and distributed. Well No Film Schoolers, today Red Giant unveiled Universe, an innovative online post production platform/community that not only includes over 50 brand-spankin' new effects and transitions, but the resources necessary for the platform to grow infinitely. So imagine our excitement when Red Giant started to hint at a major announcement, one that would surely see the launch of new tools that would be equally, if not more helpful than their prior products. Their lineup of filmmaking tools, from PluralEyes to the Color Suite to BulletProof, has made the lives of countless filmmakers so much easier and more efficient.

Here at No Film School, we love Red Giant.
