Screen Warp
Screen shapers and warping tools have become more accepted now that adventurous projection designers are using non-linear surfaces to display media. There are a plethora of outboard devices that do the job but at a price. And what if you want to integrate realtime warping effects into your project? Well with the integration of our acclaimed ScreenWarp plug-in into Hippotizer V3s Control Centre the potential for creativity has just taken a quantum leap.
Using Hippotizer V3s interface, users can now shape and distort their media to match any display surface. The ability to add large quantities of nodes and manipulate the warp in numerous ways opens up new avenues for creativity. Save multiple warps for different scenes. And because you can add ScreenWarp functionality to the timeline you now have the ability to warp against time. So if you use moving scenery the ability to track that movement is now here. Even more so due to Hippotizers ability to receive external protocols live.
One unique feature of Hippotizer V3 ScreenWarp is the ability to edge-blend the perimeter of the WARPED image not just the boundaries of the output. This means that if you use multiple outputs or multiple servers to create a large canvas you can still create seamless joins right across your display area.
A configurable grid helps the user line up the project then remove the grid once complete. And because the engine is integrated into the source Hippotizer you can add effects and manipulations to great effect.
ScreenWarp has been developed in conjunction with several major projects worldwide and incorporates requests from top Projection Designers to alleviate the headaches that warping brings. If you've ever tried this approach to media display you'll understand what we mean. If you haven't tried it, save yourselves the sleepless nights by using Hippotizer V3 as your source. You'll be glad you did!
As with all the software featured here, ScreenWarp is preloaded on all Hippotizer media servers when supplied. No additional costs or limited plug-ins. When you need it its there at your fingertips.
Getting creative in hostile environments just got a whole lot easier!
