FLOW carries forward the generative approach of Zoetrope's FOLD, pairing three raster modes with full 3D rotation and translation and delivering the same instrument across multiple host applications through the FxFactory platform.
Zoetrope FLOW is a generative design plugin from Zoetrope Software, evolved from the studio's earlier FOLD. It lets you explore and iterate simple or complex curving and flowing forms in 3D space, using any video source in your timeline. The plugin is useful for graphic design, visual arts, live performance, and motion design, and it runs across After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, and Motion through the FxFactory platform.
Animation can be manual or automatic. In Auto mode you control the LFO type and speed using built-in behaviors, while manual mode gives a looping slider running from 0.0 to 1.0 with floating point accuracy for each axis. Shape parameters add sliders for resolution, growth, complexity, and scale that affect how the form curves and distorts, and these values interact with the animation settings.
FLOW offers three raster modes: Direct maps the source video onto the shape, Tiled applies a tile effect, and Streaked uses a motion blur algorithm with alpha transparency for blended forms. As a 3D object, the form can be moved and rotated in space, with X, Y, and Z parameters exposed for each. All parameters are keyframeable or controllable by behaviors.
Zoetrope FLOW is best for graphic design, visual arts, live performance, and motion design.
Zoetrope FLOW is completely free to download and use.
Zoetrope FLOW works across several editing and motion applications, including After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve, as well as Apple Final Cut Pro and Motion. Zoetrope partnered with the FxFactory platform to deliver this multi-application support, so the same generative instrument is available across these hosts. For current details on supported host versions, check the developer's page and the FxFactory page.
Zoetrope FLOW requires Noise Industries FxFactory to run, and FxFactory is available as a free download. FxFactory also offers a paid Pro version that carries the same system requirements as the free version. FLOW is delivered through the FxFactory platform, so you'll need FxFactory in place to use it within your host application. For current system requirements, refer to the FxFactory page.
Zoetrope FLOW runs on both Apple Silicon and Intel processors, working within Final Cut Pro X, Motion, After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve. It relies on Noise Industries FxFactory, so its system requirements follow those of the FxFactory platform. For the most current hardware and operating system details, check the FxFactory page rather than assuming a fixed spec, since requirements can change across versions.
Zoetrope FLOW is listed as free in this catalog. It does require Noise Industries FxFactory to run, which is itself a free download, though FxFactory offers a paid Pro version that carries the same system requirements as the free version. You'll need FxFactory in place before running FLOW within a host application such as After Effects, Premiere Pro, or DaVinci Resolve. For current licensing and any purchase details tied to the plugin or the platform, check the developer's page and the FxFactory page.
