Using this program, you can give your footage authentic retro and modern-day looks using VHS, Retrograde Carousel, Glitch, Holomatrix II, and more. You can also create beautiful looping backgrounds and motion graphics elements with tools like HUD components, Line, Knoll Light Factory EZ, Fractal Background, and more.

Build fast, unique transitions with little or no work. Add glows and other effects that give you better results and more shortcuts, options, and control than anything in your host app. Quickly generate animations that bring your text to life or fill your screen with dynamic data for user interfaces. Go retro with old-school computer type-on effects, or easily create hacker-style reveals for modern titles.

Every tool in Universe includes presets to help get you started and give instant professional results. The Universe 3.0 release introduces our new Universe Dashboard for browsing and applying effects and presets, five brand-new text generation tools, and presets for every plugin to help get you started.

Furthermore, Working with Universe in Premiere Pro and After Effects has never been easier. The new dockable Universe Dashboard brings all the Universe tools into one place, making exploring and applying the entire library of effects and presets simply.
