The Tower

A Generator for Final Cut Pro X

Remember the iDVD template Revolution? It's Back!

After 3 years of repeated attempts at development, rebuilt from scratch, it’s finally ready for prime time.  Crisp, clear and symmetrical (finally!) this is a beautiful full-featured generator that will give your “title cards” true 3D depth with perfectly curved drop zones around a translucent (or transparent) column of a color of your choice. Perfectly arranged text with dividers which can have their position refined. With tracking, text repeats can be dense or as sparse as two per “ring” (180º separation from each instance). You can be guaranteed to design the perfect display (remember to hold down the option key when dragging values for a refined adjustment!)

The use of Zingende gives this a beautiful Art Deco feel from the golden age of Hollywood cinematics. Zingende is provided will all copies of Final Cut Pro X and is available to all.
