• Magix Movie Edit Pro/Video Pro X version: Compatible with Movie Edit Pro 18 or later (64-bit) and Video Pro X4 or later (64-bit).

*If your system not meet these requirements you can use the earlier CreativEase version (compatible with older operating systems and 32-bit video editing software) until you upgrade your OS or video-editing program. Available for WINDOWS Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 or later and Premiere Elements 11.0 or later, Vegas Pro/Vegas Movie Studio 11 or later, CyberLink PowerDirector 12 or later, Magix Movie Edit Pro 2013 (or later) and Video Edit Pro X4 (or later).

Does CreativEase have special hardware requirements?

CreativEase effects plugins are hardware-accelerated via your computer's video/graphics chip to accelerate rendering. Therefore, a DirectX 9 or OpenGL 2.1 compatible graphics card is required (almost any chip released in the last 10 years will work). A DirectX 10 or OpenGL 3.2 compatible card with at least 1GB video memory is recommended for HD and high bit-depth editing. Even if you know you have a compatible card, we highly recommend you take a moment to download and try our DEMO before buying.

The earlier CreativEase v1.x-2.x is compatible with any WINDOWS hardware (from XP through Windows 10) that runs the above video editing software.


How is the DEMO different than the purchased version?
The demo is identical, except an "X" will appear over the effects, and new saved settings cannot be created. All controls and features can be explored in the DEMO for an unlimited time. After buying CreativEase, your applied effects and settings will all be retained, and the demo's X will be removed. No extra work for you!

Why buy CreativEase plugins when I already have lots of video effects?
Pixelan was founded 20+ years ago on an artistic mission -- providing soft, organic, aesthetic video effects pluginsas an alternative to the usual "engineered" built-in video effects and visual cliches (i.e., hard-edged effects, violent explosions, tired 3D moves, uniform/inflexible looks, etc.) Combining that vision with cool technologies we have pioneered, such as our resolution-independent spice files, our luminance-based tools, modular section presets, etc. creates the formula for some uniquely powerful effects in CreativEase that are easy to use and highly customizable. We are driven by a passion for visual design. Our plugins are designed to fill visual/creative needs that built-in effects and other third-party plugin packages do not fill well or at all. To see for yourself, see the next question below…

How can I best see what each CreativEase plugin does?
To quickly overview each effects plugin's creative possibilities, we recommend: STEP 1. Look over our Features page per plugin. All are accessible from the CreativEase Overview page. STEP 2. Play the example movie of each plugin's effects. It is on the left side of each plugin's Features page. Or view all of the movies here. STEP 3.Download and install our DEMO and try it on YOUR clips in your compatible video editing program. Browse through the pre-made effects. And of course play/experiment with the controls!

Are help or tutorials available?

Yes, please see our CreativEase help.


Do I have to download it on the same machine that I edit in?
No. The download (demo or purchased version) is a single clickable installer file, which you can transfer to your editing station, if necessary, using any removable media before installing.

If I switch video editing systems someday (such as from Vegas to Adobe), will I need to re-purchase CreativEase at full price?
Any CreativEase user who has bought it from us (or an authorized reseller) can add at HALF-price an equivalent set of CreativEase plugins for a different video editing program. To do this, use our upgrade page.

What is your policy on minor updates?
Minor updates are always free.

What happens if someday my computer crashes and I lose the downloaded file or serial #?
Use our handy re-download form to get a FREE re-download anytime. There is no risk! :)

Can I install on more than one computer of mine?
Our license allows use in two different computers by the same user (such as a laptop "for the road" and a desktop at home) IF the two computers are not used AT THE SAME TIME. To edit on two computers simultaneously, such as for a video production business, a HALF-price second license is available from us on our upgrade form.

Do you have educational pricing?
We offer nice discounts on school site or lab licenses. If you have such a situation, please contact us and mention how many editing stations you may want to purchase for.

What is your return policy?
Most plugin companies insist downloadable products may not be returned under any circumstances. After all, there is nothing tangible to 'return'. At Pixelan, your happiness and satisfaction is very important to us and we treat you as a long-term relationship, not as a one-time buyer. Therefore, if you somehow become unhappy with your purchase within 10 days, we will do our best to resolve it to your satisfaction. Your best protection is to be proactive -- to download the DEMO before buying to see if these plugins will meet your creative needs.

What is your privacy policy with my order info?
Please see our privacy policy.

I feel uncomfortable purchasing on the Internet. Can I buy by phone?
Sorry, no. But please be reassured by the following: our customers have ordered online from us for many years and there has never ever been any problem of any type. We have been in business for 20+ years and are one of the longest-established visual effects plugin companies in the world. Our order pages are fully secure using all the latest web technologies. And your payment information (if paying by Paypal) is not even held by us, or (if paying by credit/debit card on our upgrade or special order forms) is held by us for only 30 days then discarded.
