The 2025.5 release gives artists access to fast masking, instant depth map creation, easy frame fixes, and more. “This year marks the 30th anniversary of Continuum’s first product release. From its inception as the first plugin available to emerging NLEs to the present day, our team has continually developed innovative visual effects tools and effects used by video editors and VFX artists across every content genre,” states Boris Yamnitsky, President and Founder of Boris FX. “As AI technology plays a larger role in everyone’s lives, we’re excited to keep Continuum at the forefront with four new plugins that enhance creative workflows, slashing the time spent on everyday technical tasks.” ## AI Technology Continuum 2025.5 adds two AI-driven masking and tracking tools. The new workflow transforms the traditionally time-consuming effects isolation process. It’s never been easier to isolate effects such as lights, glows, color grades, film stocks, and particles directly inside Continuum.  - Object Brush ML offers one-click masking that automatically generates splines that can be seamlessly tracked across frames using Mocha.  - Matte Assist ML generates a complete animated matte from one frame, delivering precise segmented masking. “I've been using Continuum’s Matte Assist ML feature since its first beta. It is nothing less than magic! In the past, I've spent tedious time and effort creating a single mask, then tracking it through a shot,” remarks [Harry B. Miller III, ACE](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0587823/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1) (*La Brea*, *The Predator*, *The Lafayette Escadrille*)*.* “Now, it’s a few mouse clicks, and then you watch the accurate automatic tracking with awe. Continuum is the best effects plugin I've ever used — and it constantly gets better and better.” ![Continuum 2025.5: AI masking before & after examples](https://blog.borisfx.com/hs-fs/hubfs/continuum/continuum-2025-5-ai-masking-1.jpg?width=700&height=394&name=continuum-2025-5-ai-masking-1.jpg)**Continuum 2025.5: New AI Masking & Tracking  (**[**download the image**](https://cdn.borisfx.com/download_files/continuum-2025-5-ai-masking-1.jpg)**)** **BCC+ Depth Map ML** is a handy tool that allows users to quickly add elements like fog to the foreground only, fake rack focus, relight, correct color, and composite. - Depth Map ML automatically generates an animated image map based on the apparent distance of objects from the camera. - It features two machine-learning models — one tuned for performance, the other tuned for higher detail.  ![Continuum 2025.5: New BCC+ Depth Map ML before & afters](https://blog.borisfx.com/hs-fs/hubfs/continuum/continuum-2025-5-depth-map-ml-2.jpg?width=700&height=394&name=continuum-2025-5-depth-map-ml-2.jpg)**Continuum 2025.5: New BCC+ Depth Map ML (**[**download the image**](https://cdn.borisfx.com/download_files/continuum-2025-5-depth-map-ml-2.jpg)**)** **BCC+ Frame Fixer ML** replaces missing or damaged frames in a source clip, regardless of the kind or level of damage to the frame. Set the bad frame and the number of frames; state-of-the-art technology does the rest.  “The BCC+ Frame Fixer ML is a perfect example of how cutting‑edge technology can streamline your workflow. Whether you’re dealing with dropped frames from tape digitization or film scratches, this effect seamlessly repairs brief disturbances by interpolating adjacent frames,” says Christian Feist, German video editor and trainer. “Even with interlaced footage, it works exceptionally well. Needless to say, the BCC+ Frame Fixer ML has earned a permanent spot on my shortlist.” ![continuum-2025-5-frame-fixer-ml](https://blog.borisfx.com/hs-fs/hubfs/continuum/continuum-2025-5-frame-fixer-ml.jpg?width=1920&height=1080&name=continuum-2025-5-frame-fixer-ml.jpg)**Continuum 2025.5: New BCC+ Framer Fixer ML (**[**download the image**](https://cdn.borisfx.com/download_files/continuum-2025-5-frame-fixer-ml.jpg)**)** ## Creative Effects   **BCC+ ST Map** is a time-saving tool allowing artists to warp footage intelligently. Artists can use ST Map metadata to drive advanced beauty work, texture wrapping, creative distortions, or warp rectilinear formats into seamless 360 video. - The tool processes ST Map images directly from a host timeline or imports ST Map images from a disc or LAN.  - A unique Watch Folder remembers where an external ST Map was loaded and relinks it with an optional on-screen metadata display. Continuum 2025.5 adds 8K support to Title Studio, its 3D titling and motion graphics toolset, over 100 new presets across seven effects categories, and quicker 4K media playback (2x speed improvements) in the FX Editor.  ## Pricing & Availability Continuum is available as a plugin collection with subscriptions, upgrade & support plans, and perpetual licenses.
