What’s new in version 2.0.4
Updated on Jul 29 2012
Version 2.0.4:
Fixed security vulnerability with auto-updating scheme (Sparkle).
Fan-tas-tic!
Perfect app to blur out faces on your "home" videos.
and so easy! Drop a target on the face, click "track", drop the blur effect and that's it!! Less than a minute later, my video is ready to be shared on adult sites without embarrassing my gf.
Thanks Elasty!
Elasty is a great basic editor and stabilizer. It’s very simple to use it. At first I had some trouble stabilizing and dealing with the black borders on the side, but easily figured out that I should play with the strength spectrum. Motion tracking is awesome.
This is an valuable application for what it is designed for. Fast and intuitive. Special effects are not interesting. However, movie stabilization and crop function are pretty good.
I use this mainly for stabilization/corrections. All other options are unnecessary (for me)
Results are sometimes spectacular (sometimes not that good). A bit expensive but now for $25 it is a bargain!
Highly recommended when you need to clean up your movies.
I mainly used the stabilization feature, and was pretty impressed with the results I got so far. I only wish they will make it possible to hear sound when previewing the output movie.
Great app and great support! I was having issues using the app. I reported this to the developer who worked with me to get it fixed in a few days. The updated version seems to be working well so far! I am very satisfied with the support I was given, and truly recommend this application.
