    SAN DIEGO, CA, November 19, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Production-proven video special effects company NewBlue, Inc. announced today the complete relaunch of its NewBlueFX line of video effects, titling and transitions plugins for video editors. With a commitment to providing video editors top-quality tools for optimal workflow and fresh aesthetics, NewBlueFX will focus sharply on titling and fully-integrated effects and transitions for professional video editors using the Adobe Premiere, Apple Final Cut Pro, Avid Media Composer, Grass Valley Edius, and Sony Vegas non-linear video editing software platforms.

NewBlueFX relaunch unveils a total reorganization and renaming of the product line, simplified pricing and a fresh website designed aimed squarely at the needs of professional video editors and filmmakers. These changes are visually represented by an updated logo and branding guidelines.

Explains Melissa Jordan Grey, NewBlue Co-founder and Managing Director, "NewBlue has grown tremendously over its 7 year history. As our products -- such as Titler Pro 3, Stabilizer and ColorFast -- gained recognition and kudos, we increasingly developed a following with professionals in the broadcast and film industries. Today's NewBlueFX is a reflection of the voices of our customers. We asked, 'how can we provide video editors with the best experience, tools and support?' and found the answer to be quite simple: Listen to those who know best, the video editors who use NewBlueFX everyday."
