- The family of plug-ins that make up FURNACECORE encapsulate the key technologies of the Academy Award-winning FURNACE toolset. These tools all use state-of-the-art technology, much of it hinging on motion estimation, to reduce the hard grind of day-to-day compositing.
- Read the Features page for information about each plug-in.
- FURNACECORE is included as standard with NUKEX, and is additionally available on Avid DS and Apple Final Cut Pro.

- Availability
- FURNACECORE is included with NUKEX, and is available to buy or rent for Avid DS and Final Cut Pro. The diagram below shows which FURNACECORE plug-ins are available for each platform.
- FURNACECORE plug-in matrix
- FURNACECORE addresses problems in four areas:
- Retiming and Speed Ramping:
- F_Kronos, F_MotionBlur, F_VectorGenerator
- Noise and Grain Management:
- F_DeNoise, F_DeGrain, F_ReGrain
- Shot Stabilisation and Alignment:
- F_Steadiness, F_Align
- Shot Clean-up and Restoration:
- F_RigRemoval, F_WireRemoval, F_MatchGrade, F_DirtRemoval, F_DeFlicker2
- Retiming and Speed Ramping
- F_Kronos - Changes the speed of a clip
- F_MotionBlur - Adds realistic motion blur
- F_VectorGenerator - Creates motion vectors for use in other plug-ins
- F_Kronos
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- F_Kronos is used to change the speed of a clip. The algorithm uses motion-estimation technology to generate motion vectors that describe where each pixel is moving from frame to frame. This is then used to build in-between frames in a sequence. The images below show a blend (left) to create a new frame and a sharp frame (right) created using our vectors. Motion blur is automatically created when speeding up clips. Much of our research has concentrated on reducing the edge-dragging between foreground and background objects.
- Kronos
- F_MotionBlur
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- F_MotionBlur uses the Foundry's advanced motion estimation technology to add realistic motion blur to a sequence. F_MotionBlur uses the same techniques and technology as the motion blur found in F_Kronos but presents the controls in a less complex, more user friendly way.
- MotionBlur
- F_VectorGenerator
- Available for NUKEX.
- F_VectorGenerator is a utility plug-in that generates motion vectors. These vectors can then be used as inputs to other FURNACECORE plug-ins. Since motion estimation is a computationally expensive process, the ability to generate the vectors offline then use the results interactively later will speed up the compositing process.
- Noise and Grain Management
- F_DeNoise - reduces noise without softening the image.
- F_DeGrain - spatial and temporal grain-reduction based on an initial grain selection made by the user.
- F_ReGrain - takes grain sampled from one clip and applies it to another.
- F_DeNoise
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- Removes noise and grain from a sequence using motion estimation to average pixels along the direction of motion. This reduces noise without softening the image. F_DeNoise has been used extensively on many films, lately including District 9.
- DirtRemoval
- F_DeGrain
- Available for NUKEX and Avid DS.
- F_DeGrain uses a wavelet-based degraining algorithm to perform both spatial and temporal grain-reduction based on an initial grain selection made by the user. Temporal grain-reduction is automatically activated for image regions where the motion between frames can be reliably used to perform frame blending and thereby reducing the softening of the image.
- F_ReGrain
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- F_ReGrain takes grain sampled from one clip and applies it to another. The technique uses pixel-level statistical techniques to produce arbitrarily large regions of new grain blended onto the target footage. Grain from some sample film stocks are also included. The image on the left is real grain from Kodak 500 stock. The image on the right is synthesized using FURNACECORE.
- ReGrain
- Shot Stabilisation and Alignment
- F_Steadiness - removes translational and rotational camera shake without the need to select tracking points
- F_Align - stabilisation and match-moving, aligns two clips
- F_Steadiness
- Available for NUKEX and Avid DS.
- F_Steadiness automatically tracks and removes translational and rotational camera shake, without requiring the user to select tracking points. This helps where insufficient stable points exist for conventional tracking, or where good data points continually move off the screen during a sequence. The algorithm also allows motion-smoothing, where high-frequency camera shake can be removed without affecting the underlying camera motion. The algorithm can also be used to remove scale and minor perspective shifts.
- See the effect of Steadiness applied to this clip - after processing.
- F_Align
- Available for NUKEX and Avid DS.
- Arguably one of the most powerful plug-ins in FURNACECORE, F_Align can be used for stabilisation and match-moving. In its most basic form it attempts to line up two images without having to select tracking points. The image on the left shows two clips shot from a hand held camera. The image on the right shows both images aligned and composited.
- Align
- Shot Clean-up and Restoration
- F_RigRemoval - removes foreground objects from a clip to reconstruct a clean background.
- F_WireRemoval - removes wires from an image,including shots where background replacement is not possible
- F_MatchGrade - automatically modifies the colours in an image to match a reference image.
- F_DirtRemoval - automatically detects and removes dust and dirt in a sequence.
- F_DeFlicker2 - removes in-scene flicker, poorly synchronised light rigs, stray light etc.
- F_RigRemoval
- Available for NUKEX and Avid DS.
- F_RigRemoval uses motion-estimation technology to remove foreground objects from a clip and reconstruct a clean background. The user loosely highlights the foreground object, and provided there is sufficient motion of the foreground relative to the background, visible fragments of background elsewhere in the sequence are extracted to fill the rig region.
- RigRemoval
- F_WireRemoval
- Available for NUKEX.
- F_WireRemoval removes wires from an image. It is particularly good on complex shots where background replacement is not possible, for example, when wires cross the actors or where wires cross complex moving backgrounds like trees or smoke. Rather than relying on traditional edge-stitching or cloning techniques, the patented algorithm performs complex signal processing to subtract the wire from the original image while preserving grain and background detail.
- F_MatchGrade
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- It is often necessary to match the colours of one clip with those of another. When filming outside at different times of the day you will inevitably get colour and luminance differences that will have to be corrected if the sequences are to be composited or edited together. You can, of course, use colour correction tools and trial and error to try and match the clips. But this tends to be time-consuming and requires some considerable skill. F_MatchGrade does it all for you by automatically modifing the colour histogram of an image to match a reference image.
- MatchGrade
- F_DirtRemoval
- Available for Final Cut Pro.
- F_DirtRemoval automatically detects and removes dust and dirt in a sequence. The algorithm produces a seamless repair by taking motion compensated pixels from the surrounding frames and interpolating them into the dirt region. The areas marked as dirt are shown in the alpha channel.
- DirtRemoval
- F_DeFlicker2
- Available for NUKEX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro.
- F_DeFlicker2 is designed to remove in-scene flicker, poorly synchronised light rigs, stray light etc. It can also remove multiple overlapping phase different flickers while adapting to cope with motion in the sequence.
