The Create Project provides shared resources for use by creative applications such as Blender, CinePaint, the GIMP, Inkscape, and Scribus.

The package includes brushes, color swatches files, gradients, etc. , so that the user doesn't need to install all of these resources separately for each and every application that can read such data.

Mandelbulber2 is a ray-tracing application for drawing three-dimensional fractals, like Mandelbulb, Mandelbox, Julia, trigonometric, hypercomplex or IFS fractals. It is highly customizable and features complex shading algorithms (among the others there are shadows, depth of field, ambient occlusion).

Mandelbulber2 is also able to produce animations and has a simple built-in 3D navigator for exploring the fractals.

OpenCOLLADA is a project dedicated to join efforts using COLLADA within various DCC tools like 3ds Max, Maya, Blender and a fast SDK for reading and writing COLLADA files.

This package contains an OpenCOLLADA based validator for COLLADA files.

The package contains the following plugins:

• DBP (1.1.9): David's Batch Processor A simple batch processing plugin for The Gimp - it allows the user to automatically perform operations (such as resize) on a collection of image files.
• add-filmgrain (2.8): Add Film Grain Helps adding realistic film grain to BW images.

• bw-simulation (1.1): Black and White Film Simulation Converts the selected layer into Black and White using the channel mixer. Tries to produce results resembling tonal qualities of film.
• cmyk-tiff-2-pdf (20090321): CMYK Tiff 2 PDF for Gimp This plugin completes the prepress workflow of using Separate+ to generate CMYK Tiff images by allowing you to convert the saved CMYK Tiff image into a PDF file.

Also you can change the modification intensity by changing the intensity of these two layers.
  • Erosion Sharpen: Sharpens the image with erosion and dilation.
  • Escape Line Script: This script creates escaping lines from any point. It's similar in function to the built-in Line-Nova Script, but much more flexible. So you can chose the center, the thickness, the angle, the length, the offset and the randomness.

• resynthesizer (2.0.3): Resynthesizer Gimp plugin for texture synthesis This gimp plugin takes samples of textures, and synthesizes larger textures from them. It can be used to extend textures (including making tileable textures), remove objects from textures, and make themed images.
• safe-for-web (0.29.0): Save for Web Allows to experiment with various popular web format options. It shows an automatically updated preview and file size statistics.
• separate+ (0.5.8): Separate+ Separate+ is a plug-in that generates color separations from an RGB image, proofs CMYK colors on the monitor and exports the CMYK TIFF file.
• smart-seperate-sharpen (2.8): Smart Seperate Sharpening This script implements a new version of smart sharpening (redux) combined with separate sharpen to give better results. You can find more about Smart Sharpening at http://www.gimpguru.org/Tutorials/SmartSharpening2/
• streak (0.6): Streak-Camera simulation A streak camera images an object through a slit - thus getting a "one dimensional image". This image is propagated along the second dimension of the image plane at a constant speed. The result is a picture of the time dependency of the object.
• traditional-orton: Traditional Orton: This is an effect invented by Michael Orton in the 1990s, which consists of taking two copies of an image, one blurred, and one sharp, and mixing them to produce an image with a dreamy quality. It is especially well suited to landscape and flower photography.
• wavelet-denoise (0.3.1): Wavelet Denoise The wavelet denoise plugin is a tool to selectively reduce noise in individual channels of an image with optional RGB<->YCbCr conversion. It has a user interface to adjust the amount of denoising applied. The wavelet nature of the algorithm makes the processing quite fast.

Tupi: 2D Magic is a design and authoring tool for digital artists interested in 2D Animation, offering an interface experience focused on 8-100 years old kids. It's source code is based on the KTooN project.

Some of its main features are: basic illustration tools (shapes, fill, text), gradient tools, onion skin, brushes editor, pencil with smoothness support, basic object library (for svg files and raster images) and many others.

Using its modules of Animation and Reproduction you can export 2D projects to several formats as OGG, MPEG, AVI, MOV and SWF. Additionally, the option of exporting Image arrays as output is available.

OgreAL is an OpenAL wrapper for the Ogre Rendering Engine. It allows you to add 3D sounds and music to your games and applications in a clean and easy way.

Animata is a real-time animation software, designed to create interactive background projections for concerts, theatre and dance performances, and promotional screenings.

The peculiarity of the software is that the animation - the movement of the puppets, the changes of the background - is generated in real-time, making continuous interaction possible. This ability also permits that physical sensors, cameras or other environmental variables can be attached to the animation of characters, creating a cartoon reacting to its environment. For example, it is quite simple to create a virtual puppet band reacting to live audio input, or set up a scene of drawn characters controlled by the movement of dancers.

In contrast with the traditional 3D animation programs, creating characters in Animata is quite simple and takes only a few minutes. On the basis of the still images, which serve as the skeleton of the puppets, we produce a network of triangles, some parts of which we link with the bone structure. The movement of the bones is based on a physical model, which allows the characters to be easily moved.

Animata can be connected with widespread programming environments used by multimedia developers and artists in order to make use of the possibilities of these applications in the fields of image editing, sound analysis, or motion capture.

Blended RADiance (brad) is able to export Blender models to Radiance, both static models or animations, to make it easier to setup the simulation parameters, to calculate luminance/illuminance values on arbitrary grids.

COLLADA Coherency Test is a command-line version of CoherencyTest from COLLADA Refinery. It checks whether a COLLADA dae file is coherent (properly composed). This package ships two versions, built for COLLADA 1.4 and 1.5.

FLIF is a lossless image (and animation) format. It tends to compress better than other image compression formats. This is the reference implementation of the FLIF encoder/decoder. The command-line utility 'flif' converts FLIF to/from PNG or PNM.

The source package would have multiple binary packages: - flif (command line tool) - libflif (shared library) - viewflif (simple image/animation viewer) - gif2flif (shell script) - apng2flif (shell script)

Fluxus is an environment which allows you to quickly make live animation and audio programs, and change them constantly and flexibly. This idea of constant change (flux) is where it's name comes from. Fluxus does this with the aid of the Scheme programming language, which is designed for flexibility; and an interface which only needs to provide you with program code floating above the resulting visual output. This interface enables fluxus to be used for livecoding, the practice of programming as a performance art form. Most users of fluxus are naturally livecoders, and some write fluxus scripts in front of audiences, as well as using it to rapid prototype and design new programs for performance and art installation.

pixelstruct provides a structure-from-motion visualizer for 3D scenes reconstructed from photographs using Bundler.

Qavimator is a QT, BVH animation editor and allows the creation and editing of BVH avatar animations. These are commonly used in the 3D metaverse Secondlife (SL) for the in-world animation of avatars. The application allows full control of each joint but is supplied with default SL joint movement limitations. Key frames can be specified and animations interpolated between them. Basic props may also be used to aid the correct positioning of your animations with respect to objects. Qavimator is tuned specificly for generation of animations for Secondlife.
