GEODE stands out in the toolfarm library for pairing a video-mapping effect with a model-based transition engine in a single package, delivered across multiple hosts through the FxFactory platform.
Zoetrope GEODE is a 3D video mapping and geometric alpha transition engine built on crafted 3D mesh models, spanning platonic primitives to more exotic forms like the helix and terraform. It ships as two plugins under the FxFactory platform.
GEODE FX maps video onto geometric 3D mesh models that have been UV texture mapped to accept 16×9 video content. You drop on the effect, then pick a shape such as a plane, arc, open box or dodecahedron, or start from a factory preset. Scale, position and rotation are fully adjustable, any axis can auto-animate, and a vertex distortion algorithm animates individual vertex points for glitchy contortions.
GEODE TRANS builds transitions from a dedicated 3D model-based alpha channel that defines transparency between A and B video over time. You load one of thirteen models, set or animate the light source position to control direction, and adjust a softness parameter from a hard-edged wipe to a gentle fade. Both GEODE plugins are OpenGL accelerated.
Zoetrope GEODE is best for editors and motion designers who want to map video onto 3D shapes or build custom geometric fades and wipes instead of canned transition looks.
Zoetrope GEODE is completely free to download and use.
Zoetrope GEODE works in After Effects, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, alongside Final Cut Pro X and Motion. Multi-application support comes through the FxFactory platform, which Zoetrope partnered with to deliver GEODE across these hosts. The package includes both the GEODE FX video-mapping effect and the GEODE TRANS transition plugin. For the detailed system requirements tied to each host, check the FxFactory page, where those requirements are kept up to date rather than fixed.
Zoetrope GEODE runs on both Apple Silicon and Intel processors. It requires Noise Industries FxFactory, a free download, to operate, and works within Final Cut Pro X, Motion, After Effects, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. FxFactory also offers a paid Pro version with the same system requirements as the free one. Both GEODE plugins are OpenGL accelerated. For the specific hardware and OS details, refer to the FxFactory page, which lists the current requirements.
Zoetrope GEODE requires Noise Industries FxFactory to run, available as a free download. FxFactory provides the platform that delivers GEODE across its supported hosts, and a paid FxFactory Pro version shares the same system requirements as the free one. Once FxFactory is installed, GEODE works in Final Cut Pro X, Motion, After Effects, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. For updated system requirements, refer to the FxFactory page.
Zoetrope GEODE is listed as free here. The plugin requires Noise Industries FxFactory, which is itself a free download, while FxFactory Pro is a paid version carrying the same system requirements as the free one. For current licensing terms and details on the free and paid tiers, check the developer's page. From there you can also confirm what runs across the supported host applications, including After Effects, Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
