I Ate Mushrooms for After Effects and Premiere Pro

Core Features

  • Create trippy effects based on Neural Network outputs

Processing happens fully locally, running on our high-performance C++ blace.ai engine.
Your data never leaves your machine.

20,000+ customers trust our products, from freelance creators to enterprise teams.

Supports Apple Silicon and NVIDIA GPUs (Windows) for hardware acceleration.


Features

Overview

I Ate Mushrooms is a neural network based image generator. It allows to create bizarre, abstract and hypnotizing animations from textual descriptions, 1000 predefined object categories or based on your own footage.

New!!! Text-to-Image

Create images from textual descriptions. Good for creation of simple patterns, objects and other content. Example: digital neuron

Neural Transitions

Create trippy interpolations based on your own footage.

Many categories

Use up to 1000 base categories of objects and living beings to feed your creation with.

Latent interpolation

Interpolate between different objects in the latent space of the neural network and discover the hidden relation of things.

Loopable

All generations are fully loopable. You can even use custom noise maps to drive the randomness of your creations.

Abstract art

Modify your creations with several parameters to discover the abstract corners of the neural network.

Combine with other effects

Use creations from the plugin as base for other effects. It's basically an extremely diverse noise generator ;)



System Requirements

Windows with NVIDIA GPU >= 8GB Windows with non-NVIDIA GPU >= 8GB Apple Silicon with MacOS Sequoia or newer and >= 16GB RAM Other MacOS
very slow
