    About

    In practice. What you can do with Universe Color Stripe.

    Universe Color Stripe is a Universe postproduction plugin. Its purpose: sweep colour bands across the screen to reveal the next shot.

    Choose transition timing around your two shots. A conspicuous effect can support branded motion graphics but does not replace a coherent edit.

    Access is through Universe, also included in Red Giant and Maxon One. This is not a standalone purchase priced at the cost of the suite. Check the plugin against your exact host version. Archive source material and a final render rather than relying only on a plugin-dependent project.
