A full walkthrough of Terminator on real footage, in After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
What Terminator does
Terminator lays a T-800 red vision HUD over your footage, with a red overlay, scrolling scan data, and targeting readouts. It runs entirely on the GPU as a real After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve effect, so you get a live, render-accurate preview while you work.
Use it to put any clip behind a machine's eyes, with data running down the frame and targeting text tracking the action. Every control is keyframable, so you can boot the vision up and time the readouts to the cut.
