It delivers 200-plus VFX filters to Mac and Windows versions of Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro CS5.5, CS5, CS4, and CS3. New flicker reduction and videoscope tools, OpenGL-accelerated 32-bit float support, and enhanced lens flares, particles, glows, lights, and After Effects integration headline this new release.

BCC 8 AE will be available in October 2011 at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of US$995. Owners of previous versions of BCC AE may upgrade for an MSRP of $295 USD. Customers who purchase BCC 7 AE as of Sept. 8, 2011 will be eligible to receive a free upgrade to BCC 8 AE.

For a limited time, owners of GenArts Sapphire for Adobe After Effects will be eligible to crossgrade to BCC 8 AE for US$295 (limited to two crossgrade licenses per customer). CC 8 AVX for Avid, BCC 8 OFX for Sony Vegas Pro, and BCC 8 FxPlug for Apple Final Cut Pro 7, Final Cut Pro X, and Motion are scheduled for release later in 2011. Customers who purchase BCC 7 AVX, BCC 7 OFX, or BCC 7 FxPlug as of Sept. 8, 2011 will receive a free upgrade to version 8.
