## Bricolage Description
Bricolage is a powerful special-effects toolbox for tricking out your photos and movies like the Hollywood pros do. Pipe your video through a chain of basic effects, each processing the picture in a different way. With over 150 to choose from it is easy to create completely unique looks and effects. And now its mature 3DTV tools shine with the perfect stereo of the Vision Pro.

Mix multiple images and animate special effects to give your videos the finishing touches they need, from subtle regional color correction or exposure adjustment, to wild cartoon colors or funhouse-mirror distortions.
Just bring in a video (or photo!) and drop effects between the input and the output. Bricolage takes advantage of the powerful graphics hardware in your iPad or iPhone to deliver smooth playback and responsive controls. You can even zoom into your video while it&#039;s playing.
And when you&#039;ve built a great effect, you can save it for reuse with other projects. 

Bricolage uses the industry-standard technique known as &#039;node-based compositing&#039; to build complex effects from a chain of simple building blocks. You&#039;ll combine different layers using photoshop-style blending modes or black &amp; white masks. Make different versions of an image and combine them back together to blur or darken the edges of an image, or selectively recolor the sky or ground. Use animated transitions to switch video streams or overlay text and graphics. Cut out shapes from pictures using Bezier curves. Apply image distortions and move them around the video, or use Apple&#039;s Face Recognition technology to mark or cover faces detected in your video. Place, scale and animate video overlays or shapes and gradients. Process your shots to look like a desert, or add film grain and a vintage photo process.  You can even add titles or overlay time code on your movies.

Bricolage uses custom Metal programs to process HD video in real time directly on the graphics processor. If you have an older device, don&#039;t worry, Bricolage offers half- and quarter-resolution &#039;proxy&#039; modes, so you can get a preview of most effects with responsive controls even at HD, while still producing a full-resolution movie. 

Despite its great power, Bricolage is quite simple to use. Just build a chain of effects for your images to flow through from the inputs to the output.  Drag effect nodes to &#039;kiss&#039; the output of one to the input of another to form a connection. Or press and hold a link to insert a new node in the middle. With a zooming, scrolling canvas, you can organize your flows the way you like. Immediate feedback in the nodes makes it easy to experiment, while the full-screen node editor lets you perfect a single effect with enhanced tools.

Features:
Process still images or videos, pick stills from video
Combined preview and node editing lets you create with live feedback
Pre-built templates to make advanced effects easy to give you a head start on your own awesome creations.
Save your node flows as templates and import them into other projects
Built-in help with inline descriptions of nodes and their parameters
Infinite undos, and for the indecisive, re-dos.
Playback proxies at reduced resolution for more responsive editing on older devices
Zoom and pan photos and videos, even while playing

## Bricolage Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great processing and compositing app!"
Bricolage 5.0 is awesome. With the addition of spatial stereo and workflow improvements, Bricolage remains my favorite app for image processing and compositing.
-- acdose, 2024-05-30

### ***-- "Both apps very buggy and missing critical features but are also surprisingly robust."
In the motion graphix app there is no apparent way to have a video layer as a moving object. This missing feature destroys my workflow.

The bricollage app often loads videos upside down? No obvious node available to correct that issue, or to scale and reposition video layers. 

Overall I can make some fun but very glitchy animations.. thank you for you efforts.. I wish it was a more popular app so it would have more drive to get fixed.
-- Clombings, 2020-11-16

### *---- "Green screen broken"
Green screen remover doesn’t keep checker pattern, it just turns it black in the final product don’t waste your money on it
-- GrimmxxxxReaper, 2020-02-15

### ***-- "It has professional editing, but does not work like a professional app"
This app has many great tools for editing. However, it is loaded with bugs. Sometimes, when I create a new project, the video doesn’t even show, only a black screen. Sometimes the effects don’t even work and it crashes. The app is good when it works, but the constant bugs have to be stopped.

Edit: The new update is good but source over using greenscreen remove and move rotate scale is messed up. When you try to scale a greenscreen video using source over, the area that is not part of the greenscreen video turns black and covers the background video. I have used this before without any problems, but it is giving me problems now. Please fix this.
-- Fast shooting, 2019-06-08

### ***-- "Hope"
This is really a unique application with a great functionality. I hope for updates with more parameters and building blocks for more variable image and video manipulation  . I like also to see more generators such as bricks, viens,.... so that this application will be able to produce textures and materials like a dream!! Thanks alot
-- Otolaryngologist A, 2019-06-06

### *---- "Exports wrong FPS"
This app exports videos with one less frame per second then the original video sources. I’ve tried both 24 (23.98) fps and 30 (29.97) fps videos with 1080p resolution. Both videos were rendered at 23.00fps and 29.00fps), resulting in lots of skipping frames.

There are other minor issues/bugs that needs some attention, however the above bug is a showstopper. Literally.

iPad Pro 10.5” , latest iOS 12.2.

This review and score will be edited as soon as this is taken care of. 

Dev: Please update me on any status for a fix. Thank you.
-- ChrisE1G, 2019-04-06

### ***** "hidden gem"
it’s 2019 and I only just found Bricolage and its add-ons. where have you been all my iPad life?!  

this app is unique in that you can infinitely (presumably) chain and rearrange video effects seamlessly instead of having to render and save a video for one effect just to use it in the next.  and the rearrangement of effects is done by dragging and connecting/reconnecting node inputs and outputs to each other — by way of what I’d have called a GUI in 2002, though the term seems too clunky for this.

it feels like I’ve been waiting for this app since 2002, back when I was using Max/MSP/Jitter on my MacBook.  this reminds me of that in that it’s refreshing to use for its simplicity once you understand what’s happening.  thank you for putting this out there.  more people should find it and use it.

my only suggestions so far are that I’d like to be able to see an effect’s description and number of inputs without first having to activate it on the “stage,” and also that it would be wonderful to be able to quickly swap out or cycle through each somehow by way of the secondary long-press gesture (the one that brings up the option to delete the node) instead of having to back to the long menu docked on the left — necessitating some sort of elegant inline solution I guess?  I’m sure you’ll know it when you see it.
-- parables_bk, 2019-01-14

### ***-- "Hidden gem but..."
I cannot find any support! I edit video professionally with iOS software and I just discovered this the other day thru a recommendation... but I have never used node based compositing before, and while I have gotten the hang of it, and I am still so lost on so many aspects. 

YouTube has next to nothing as far as tutorials for video editing.. cannot find a used guide anywhere....
-- ActuallyArmani, 2018-07-21

### *---- "Does not work on iOS 10"
I didn&#039;t notice this app hasn&#039;t been updated in over a year before I made the purchase. It opens, but you can&#039;t create a new project, import video, or use &quot;Open In&quot; from other apps (Bricolage doesn&#039;t appear in the share menu in other apps).

If you have updated to iOS 10+, don&#039;t buy this until the publisher issues an update. Right now it is useless.
-- JSmith1791, 2017-02-05

### ***** "Elegant and masterful"
This is an awesome app.  I run it on both an iPad 2 and an iPhone 6 and it has never crashed.  The interface is beautiful and the number of filters and effects is amazing.  I&#039;m surprised it doesn&#039;t have more ratings!  Definitely worth the money, it does more than a lot of PC programs.
