Red Giant has released Universe 3.3, an update with two new tools, Quantum and Modes and updated versions of its motion graphics tools Glow, Glimmer, Chromatic Aberration, and Hacker Text. Updates for Universe is a collection of Red Giant’s GPU accelerated plugins for editing and motion graphics.

Quantum creates animated light trails in front of or behind a layer, while Modes enables layers to be blended for different effects. The new blend modes from Red Giant blend modes are an especially nice gift for users of Avid Composer, which doesn’t have its own blend modes.

The latest update to Universe includes over 100 new presets.
