The iMovie plugin offers the functionality of blurring footage to enhance privacy or emphasize certain parts of the video.
But Gauss Blur isn't just a one-trick pony. In addition to blurring your clips, it has other capabilities to explore. However, users should be aware that Gauss blur algorithms can be a heavy load on your processor(s).
While Gauss Blur uses an experimental and innovative finite-state algorithm for blurring that offers a 2x-5x speed boost over more traditional algorithms, you'll still need to have some patience if you want to use it to 50x50 gaussblur your mother-in-law from your half-hour wedding video. At the very least, you'll need plenty of time on your hands - or one of those super-clusters. So, if you're up for a bit of a challenge, Gauss Blur could be the perfect addition to your iMovie toolkit.
