Basic Layer Handling
- This video is about basic layer handling - see the realtime photoshop-like modes in use. The layer and compositing modes are open source and freely scriptable.
Expression Linking
- Expression linking - we love it! Do not miss the 'audio' sample below! If you want to test this with your mxw installation, create links with shift-dragging between any sliders.
Realtime Shaders
- The realtime effects, called 'shaders'. There are 100 available on the download servers by now. The effects are freely scriptable and open source. These effects do not only enhance and speed up your creativity but can serve as final output correcting stages, too. device+context offers the service to script shaders on demand.
The Final Effect
- The final effect, a finishing all-over beautyfier, or the last stage of result shaping eg. a mask cutting complex shapes on stage.
Creating Patches and Sets
- Save and modify your creative work, create patches and sets. The patches and sets are a very fast, non-interruptive way to store good-looking visuals and scenes.
The Feedback
- VJing would be virtually impossible without it: the internal feedback! The generative aspect of an internal feedback stream in combination with expression linking results in hours of finest and intuitive visuals without a large footage set or preparation time.
Track Usage
- Wipe, fade, push, scratch & crossfade: basic track use.
Keystoning
- Upper class VJing: use keystones and softedges to create panoramic projections or nicely shaped projection areas. Almost as important as your videostream is its presentation. It is a huge difference between throwing an image towards a walll or integrating visual jazz into an environment .. the integrated keystone and softedge engine enables you to do exactly this.
Audio as a source
- How audio input in combination with expression linking can inspirit your visuals.
Live Devices
- MXWendler opens as many live devices as you can connect to your sytem, no matter if FireWire, USB or PCI / PCIe connected. In combination with the virtual camera output stream, this is the TV / IPTV studio in-a-box.
