Welcome,
As Dracula said, "New blood is always a help."
This may or may not be of use to you and results are down the line, but NewTek has released the source code of the Video Toaster. Open source development is under way.
There are a number of fine paint programs and image processors for the Classic Amiga. Almost any of them will run much faster on the AmigaOne.
That said, the 800 killo gorilla of the bunch is ImageFX. IFX is still under development, if at slow pace these days. There is an active mailing list that usually solves any problem brought to it. Just today one member reoprted that he had solved some problems with a script and processed about 4500 frames of blue screen.
Are you familiar with the Cinematte blue screen plugin for Photoshop and Aura? Cinematte is part of ImageFX.
Can existing Amiga software help you? There's a good chance, especially if you think outside the box. Here's an example and I'll close.
On the pilot of Babylon 5 Amigas did more than just the great Lightwave special effects. In the last interior fight scene one of the set's walls gave way when someone was thrown against it. The flexing of a 'metal' bulkhead was too noticable to be used. Rather than reshoot, they used Morph Plus to fix it in the dreaded POST. I've watched for it, and I still am not sure which shot the correction is in.
Hope you stay around for a long time. Once OS 4 is here things should take off. And, as much as some people will cringe when I say it, the AmigaOne series will run Linux, and Mac ON Linux.
Best,
Bob Kennedy
