Backdrop Designer ships with over 600 pre-made textures that simulate muslin drapes, the physical backdrop traditionally used in studios. Backdrop Designer allows users to mix and match presets, and then modify them with built-in lighting effects, shadows, color variation, and 3D material distortion. Using digital backdrops provides photographers and designers with unprecedented flexibility and creativity for any project.

“We wanted to create a product that has the potential to revolutionize portrait photography,” said Jim Tierney, founder of Digital Anarchy. “Backdrop Designer provides an entirely new way of creating backgrounds that is truly exciting and liberating for a digital workflow.”

Backdrop Designer is designed for use with Digital Anarchy’s Primatte Chromakeyer, a Photoshop plug-in that easily removes the typically green or blue solid color backgrounds from photographs. Once Primatte creates a transparency area around the subject, Backdrop Designer can be used to generate a custom background. This interoperability creates a digital workflow that is easy, quick and eliminates the need for an expensive collection of traditional muslin/canvas backgrounds.

Also Backdrop Designer has NO RESOLUTION LIMITS!
