FieldsKit for Final Cut Pro 3.2.1

FieldsKit for Final Cut Pro is a plug-in that provides smarter deinterlacing and better workflow options for interlaced footage.

At the heart of FieldsKit is FieldsKit Deinterlacer that deinterlaces video imagery with superior results. results.

Using proprietary field reconstruction and adaptive motion techniques, FieldsKit Deinterlacer can build full frames from fields that are of much higher quality than the standard approaches available in most effects and video editing applications.

The FieldsKit Reinterlacer plugin allows you create interlaced material from progressive material using various techniques, including producing new fields using motion estimation techniques.

The FieldsKit Pulldown plugin allows you to animate the pulldown phase for material that has multiple cadences in the same clip.

· Option to deinterlace using motion estimation.
· Ability to only perform deinterlacing where there is motion in the scene (useful for locked-off camera shots).
· Ability to blur in the vertical direction to reduce or eliminate flickering or crawling artifacts.
· Ability to post-sharpen to help regain some of the detail lost when creating the deinterlaced frames.
