Polar (obsolete)

This effect is replaced by the After Effects Polar Coordinates effect.

The Premiere 5.1 Polar effect converts a clip from its rectangular to polar coordinates and vice versa. This effect can create a cylinder anamorphosis, a type of art popular in the 18th century in which the distorted image is difficult to recognize unless viewed in the reflection of a mirrored cylinder.
