Does anyone have experience/recommendations with softwares to generate fractal (zoom) movies? I made some searches and my favourite for now is Fractal Explorer (http://www.eclectasy.com/Fractal-Explorer) because of its ease of use and number of features but I wonder if there is anything better before I commit myself to it?

I also found Fractal eXtreme (http://www.cygnus-software.com) and ChaosPro (http://www.chaospro.de) which are both top quality softwares but for the zoom option of the first one is quite limited (you can only zoom between two points) and, as for ChaosPro, I just don't manage to understand how to create movies with it, despite all my efforts. :(

Thanks


PS: No comment on "swirly shit" please ;) I'm using fractal movies to mix them with "real life" videos and the goal is just to add an additional layer on Resolume. So far the results have been pretty interesting, especially combined with video feedback. I'll post a movie when I get my capture card to work again.

Really? Do you need a plugin for this?

You might need the producer's pack, but I am not sure..(it is in 5.0 PP that I have)..
Does anyone have the regular version of AE, and does it have the fractal animator in that version??
