Shine is a fast light effect plug-in. The effect looks very much like volumetric light, but is actually a 2D effect.
There are special controls to make shimmering lights and numerous coloring modes.

This is an effect that you see everyday on TV and in many movie titles. Before it was only possible to make using 3D apps (real volumetric lights) or using slower rendering 2D plug-ins.

Here are some key features of "Shine":
Available for Mac OS, Mac OSX and Windows
Works in 16bit (AE5 PB) and 8bit per channel color depths
Fast rendering
Special controls to make shimmering lights (loopable)
Numerous coloring options including 3- and 5-color gradients
Tweakable coloring presets
Extensive documentation: Manual and Tutorials
Built-in transfer modes, threshold and circular mask to maximize your workflow
Available for instant purchase on-line.

Requirements:
Adobe After Effects 4.1 and higher.
