WarpBubble2Mask In the S_WarpsMask Plugin. Warps the source clip using two overlapping sets of bubble patterns. This can be used to create heat diffusion or under water types of effects. The Shift Speed parameters cause the noise pattern to automatically translate over time. Adjust the Amplitude and Frequency parameters to give different types of distortions. Inputs: Source:  The input clip to be warped. Mask:  The amplitude of warping is scaled by the values of this input clip. Gray values internally scale the warping amplitude rather than simply cross-fading between the effect and the original source to allow more continuous results at the Mask edges and more detailed control over the warping amounts. Only the red channel of this input is used. This input can optionally be blurred or inverted using the Blur Mask or Invert Mask parameters.

A Parameters:

A Frequency:   Default: 4,  Range: 0.01 or greater.
The frequency of the first set of bubbles.

A Amplitude:   Default: 0.25,  Range: any.
The distortion amplitude of the first set of bubbles.

A Octaves:   Integer,  Default: 1,  Range: 1 to 10.
The number of noise octaves of the first set of bubbles.

A Seed:   Default: 0.23,  Range: 0 or greater.
The random number generator seed of the first set of bubbles.

A Shift Start:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any.
The translation of the first set of bubbles.

A Speed:   X & Y,   Default: [0.1 0],  Range: any.
Automatically animated shift for the first set of bubbles.

Other Parameters:

Z Dist:   Default: 1,  Range: 0.01 or greater.
Scales the 'distance' of the image. Values greater than 1.0 move it farther away and make it smaller. Values less then 1.0 move the image closer and enlarge it. Zooming in slightly can sometimes be used to hide edge artifacts.

Filter:   Check-box,  Default: on.
If enabled, the image is adaptively filtered when it is resampled. This gives a better quality result when parts of the image are warped smaller.

Wrap:   X & Y,  Popup menu,  Default: [REFLECT REFLECT].
Determines the method for accessing outside the borders of the source image.

NO:  gives black beyond the borders.

TILE:  repeats a copy of the image.

REFLECT:  repeats a mirrored copy. Edges are often less visible with this method.

Blur Mask:   Default: 0,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Blurs the Mask input by this amount before using. This can provide a smoother transition between the masked and unmasked areas.

Invert Mask:   Check-box,  Default: off,  Shared.
If enabled, inverts the mask input so the effect is applied to areas where the Mask is black instead of white.

B Parameters:

B Frequency:   Default: 4,  Range: 0.01 or greater.
The frequency of the second set of bubbles.

B Amplitude:   Default: 0.25,  Range: any.
The distortion amplitude of the second set of bubbles.

B Octaves:   Integer,  Default: 1,  Range: 1 to 10.
The number of noise octaves of the second set of bubbles.

B Seed:   Default: 0.34,  Range: 0 or greater.
The random number generator seed of the second set of bubbles.

B Shift Start:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any.
The translation of the second set of bubbles.

B Speed:   X & Y,   Default: [-0.1 0],  Range: any.
Automatically animated shift for the second set of bubbles.
