    Boris FX Plugins & Standalone Apps: Designed for Creative Post-Production

    The latest updates represent the company's commitment to providing content creators with expansive, versatile, and affordable digital tools to help streamline workflows and broaden creative visions:    

    • Sapphire 2021: Sapphire 2021 is a significant technical step forward thanks to the introduction of Metal GPU-acceleration. Artists working on Mac systems (2014-present) can now produce stunning high-end visual effects that render much more quickly. New creative effects include S_UltraGlow and S_UltraZap, presets, and lens flares. The functionality of the Sapphire Lens Flare Designer has been updated and more than 60 Sapphire effects have been rewritten to take advantage of Apple’s proprietary GPU language Metal. (Released November 2020)
    • Mocha Pro 2021: Mocha Pro 2021 added a very versatile new PowerMesh feature to its already robust tracking and rotoscoping feature set. What makes PowerMesh so important is that it now includes a new sub-planar tracking engine for more effective VFX, roto, and stabilization. PowerMesh allows users to solve difficult warped surface tracking with unparalleled accuracy on organic moving objects such as musculature, skin, and fabrics. Other new features include Alembic exports and a revamped AdjustTrack module. Power users will also like Mocha Pro’s updated under-the-hood features that increase performance while maintaining stability. (Released November 2020)
    • Continuum 2021: Continuum 2021, the industry’s largest plugin collection, added 80 new HDR-compliant cinematic effects and over 1000 stunning drag-and-drop presets. Many post-production artists also appreciated that the update lets users add 3D and turbulence effects to projects via the Particle Illusion 2021 plugin. The update introduces new Edge Cleaner controls to the Primatte Studio filter for even cleaner compositing results when working with green screen footage. Plus, Title Studio has improved integration with Maxon C4D software for more accurate renders. (Released October 2020)
    • Optics 2021: Boris FX introduced the new Optics plugin in the summer of 2020. The digital photography plugin targets creative pros looking for a fun and inventive tool for editing, enhancing, and transforming photos. (Optics is available as a plugin for Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom or as a standalone app on macOS and Windows.) Optics features over 150 filters and thousands of presets designed by VFX industry veterans to correct, enhance, and stylize images. It also comes with 75 handpicked filters from Sapphire’s high-end VFX suite such as lens flares, glows, and lighting effects. (Released July 2020)
    • Silhouette 2020.5: The Academy and Emmy Award-winning toolkit used on many Hollywood productions (such as The Mandalorian and Avengers: Endgame) features a robust toolset to tackle advanced rotoscoping and effects tasks. The standalone application includes non-destructive paint, tracking, and compositing tools, easy-to-use magnetic spline tools, and a paint detail-separation workflow. The Silhouette 2020.5 release also comes with the Silhouette Paint plugin for Adobe and OFX hosts. Silhouette 2020.5 is an essential tool for professional visual effects workflows. (Released April 2020)

    Indeed and Voyager’s Record-Breaking Film “First Days” Makes World Premiere At Sundance Impact Lounge

    Wednesday, February 11, 2026
    Still from the short film "First Days"

    “First Days,” the Guinness World Record-breaking short film created through Indeed’s Opportunity Studio initiative, makes its world premiere during 2026 Sundance Film Festival, screening at the Impact Lounge during the festival’s opening weekend. Produced by Voyager, the film holds the official Guinness World Records title for most directors on a single film, bringing together 30 first-time and emerging filmmakers in a collaborative production that reimagines access, authorship, and opportunity within the film industry. Written by twin brothers Kevin Luu and Kelly Luu, veterans of Indeed's Rising Voices program, the film unfolds entirely inside an office cubicle. Told through comedic vignettes capturing “first day at work” anxieties, each segment was directed by a different filmmaker while working under a unified creative framework and professional crew. “First Days” was developed through Opportunity Studio, an initiative launched by Indeed to expand access to one of the hardest industries to break into by giving aspiring directors their first opportunity to direct a professionally produced film and earn an IMDb directing credit. The project originated as a live, interactive filmmaking experience during the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival, where the film was shot on-site over four days at the Indeed Lounge at Spring Studios. Voyager led all producing and casting efforts, with set design and construction by global integrated marketing agency BMF, offering participants and visitors a behind-the-scenes look at a working film set. "We fell in love with this concept instantly,” shares Charles Frank, Creative Director and Founder of Voyager. “It's such a brilliant way to uplift emerging voices and support independent film – two values that...
