MrAlexTech makes plugins and tools for DaVinci Resolve, including MagicAnimate, MagicZoom, and MagicScript, for Windows and Mac. MagicAnimate animates clips, logos, webcams, and titles with In, Mid, and Out moves without requiring keyframes. Its free version has the same motion engine and no licence, account, or time limit; the full version adds MagicMove, MagicKeyframe, 159 presets, and up to six extra timeline positions. MagicZoom offers point-based zooms, camera moves, magnifier-window Pop Out effects, and face tracking. MagicScript runs saved scripts from within DaVinci Resolve Studio. MagicAnimate and MagicZoom require DaVinci Resolve 21 or later, while MagicScript requires Studio 21.1 or later and does not run in the free edition. MagicScript is free. MagicAnimate full version and MagicZoom each cost $49.99 as a one-time purchase, with tax where applicable, and include free updates for life. The site lists a 7-day trial. Face detection and tracking run locally, according to the maker.
