What It Does
ColorVSN applies colormap styles to footage, mapping pixel luminance values to a chosen color palette. It works as both a creative color grading tool and a utility for visualizing grayscale data, such as depth passes, motion vectors, or any single-channel image where a false-color representation is useful.
Key Features
22 colormaps. Choose from a library of 22 distinct color palettes, ranging from scientific-style gradients to more stylized looks. Useful for data visualization work as well as stylized grade treatments.
Grayscale visualization. Dedicated mode for enhancing the readability of grayscale footage or render passes, making luminance differences more visually distinct.
5 blend modes. Control how the colormap interacts with the underlying footage, allowing for composite-style results rather than a straight replacement.
Who It’s For
Motion designers working with data-driven visuals, scientific or medical visualizations, or anyone wanting a fast way to apply false-color treatments. Also useful for VFX artists needing to inspect render passes like Z-depth or ambient occlusion with more visual clarity.
Compatible with After Effects 2023 and later, Premiere Pro 2023 and later, and DaVinci Resolve 17 through 21. Windows and macOS are supported for After Effects and Premiere Pro; DaVinci Resolve support is Windows only.
