Works Well with Others
A good corporate citizen, Motion imports a wide range of files, including QuickTime, DVCPRO, HDV, TIFF, layered Photoshop files, Illustrator vector graphics and OpenEXR for 16-bit float quality. Motion also lets you export in MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 formats for creating DVD-compatible files.
You can also work hand-in-hand with Adobe After Effects. Drag and drop your native Motion 2 project files into After Effects 6.5 without rendering. To make a change, simply launch Motion from within After Effects; the changes you make will automatically update in your After Effects composition. And those who normally use After Effects can now easily access the intuitive particle creation, elegant Replicator designs and drag-and-drop procedural animation found in Motion 2.
Motion also lets you use your favorite After Effects-compatible plug-ins for filters and effects. And thanks to a news FxPlug architecture, you can use any of the GPU-accelerated plug-ins that come with Motion 2 or from third-party developers.
