BluffTitler is an effects program for creating 3D text animations and 3D picture/video wipes.

The result can be played in realtime by the player and screensaver or exported to picture and video formats for use in your videos (chroma key supported), multi-media presentations, VJ performances and websites.

BluffTitler DX9 is a program that titles and wipes 3D images.

Animations are built out of layers that can be animated independently. The current version of BluffTitler supports 8 different layer types: camera, light, text, picture, video, plasma, particle and audio. Layers can be connected to each other for special effects.
