Bauhaus Mirage is a unified environment that simplifies the creation of animated graphics and special effects. Combining real-time video paint, animation, and effects functionality into a single product, Mirage centralizes the workflow for visual effects production in film, video, broadcast, and cartoon/2D animation. Mirage's intuitive interface and common-sense workflow transcend the digital, focusing on the what – rather than the how, and incorporating the artist directly into the production they're creating. Designed for projects of any resolution, ranging from HDTV and Film to web video, Mirage provides a simple, powerful alternative to expensive proprietary solutions and complex software workflows..
