Boris FX’s latest offering of Silhouette (formally Silhouette Roto) is quite a package. From a dedicated rotoscoping software app it has been morphed into a full blown compositing solution.

Like Shake, Nuke, and Fusion, it is a node-based system and you have access to a plethora of compositing nodes including of course the legacy Silhouette tools such as Roto, Paint, and Morph but also categories such as Composite, Color, Keying, Image, Light, Time, Transform, etc. This new version (2022.5.5) even has some of the Mocha Pro tracking engine, Boris FX Sapphire plugins, and even the 3D particle system Particle Illusion. I’m amazed at all this added functionality since I am used to the legacy version of Silhouette which I mainly used for roto work.
