Frischluft Fresh Curves is a precision color correction plugin for Adobe After Effects, built to make up for the control and accuracy that After Effects' native curves tool lacks. Curves are already one of the most versatile color correction tools available, and Fresh Curves is designed to help artists get significantly more out of that basic concept.
Beyond the usual RGBA channels, Fresh Curves adds dedicated brightness, saturation, and hue channels for more direct color control. Relative Curves let you adjust one attribute based on another, and include a built-in preblur and postblur curve for smoother, more natural adjustments. Curves themselves are built on Bezier cubic splines with tangent handles for fine control, along with interpolation modes similar to those found in the After Effects graph editor.
An Invert Curves option lets you work in your own custom color space, applying a custom gamma curve, doing your color work, and then applying the inverted curve to return to normal color space. An integrated histogram helps identify and modify specific tonal areas while giving immediate visual feedback as adjustments are made.
Fresh Curves also improves the day to day usability of a curves tool with a larger, resizable interface in place of the small, fixed native panel, along with zoom tools for working with out of range float colors or fine details, and the ability to directly edit or sample color values to work in whatever color range feels most comfortable.
Fresh Curves is available for Adobe After Effects on Windows and macOS, with Apple Silicon support and CUDA acceleration through the After Effects API for GPU-accelerated color correction.
