3 minute read

The powerful standalone 3D tracking toolset used on blockbuster movies and episodics is now part of the Boris FX product family.


The Boris FX crew always thrives to build upon the award-winning products you already know and love — and bring you new tools to further streamline overall post-production pipelines.

After welcoming CrumplePop's AI-driven audio plugins to the Boris FX Suite of products earlier this year, we're thrilled to announce the addition of SynthEyes! Many of our users may already be familiar with the cutting-edge 3D camera-solving and match-moving standalone application. 

Artists have relied on SynthEyes for the last twenty years to tackle complex visual effects tasks on films like Black Panther, The Guardians of the Galaxy, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Pan's Labyrinth, and King Kong, and streaming/broadcast projects like Foundation, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones, Fringe, and Lost.

It's available as a standalone application for Windows, MAC, and Linux operating systems, with a fully supported export pipeline to your favorite compositing or 3D application. Options include Adobe After Effects, Nuke, Fusion, Blender, Flame, Maya, Houdini, and more. Prices start at $499 for a permanent license. Learn more
