Psunami is now an FxPlug!

Our popular After Effects plugin is now released for Final cut Pro and Motion! We have revved up Psunami Water to work in Apple's FxPlug architecture. The FxPlug update gives Final Cut Pro and Motion users direct access to this powerful plugin. The price hasn't changed but the functionality is stronger. [more]

Create photo-realistic water.

Psunami Water generates precise 3D geometry of an ocean surface, then produces ultra-realistic ray-traced output that looks like real water. Psunami has been used in many feature films, television productions, and commercials. For instance, Psunami Water was used in the production of Miramax's movie 'The Aviator'. [more]

State of the art rendering.

Psunami utilizes the 'RenderWorld' ray-tracing render engine from Arete Image Software. This gives you render quality that's generally only found in high-end 3D systems. On the film side, RenderWorld's images have been used in 'Titanic', 'The Truman Show', 'Cast Away' and 'Pearl Harbor'. In fact, the stand-along version of RenderWorld won a CGW Year 1996 Innovation Award.

Our Psunami version gives you exactly the same technology and power. Use camera controls to set tilt, pan, roll and elevation for the waves. Design your waves with wind and swells. Texture or displace the water surface with built-in image maps. Animate gorgeous 3D oceanographic effects without leaving After Effects.
