FrameLab | Composition Guides for Houdini

[Biscotte]

Every frame tells a story.
But it’s the smallest details in composition that separate good from unforgettable.
That’s exactly what Frame Lab is for!

It’s not just an overlay. It’s a new way to see your scene:
• 14 customizable composition guides (Rule of Thirds, Fibonacci, Perspective & more)
• Single / dual-tone overlays with adjustable thickness & opacity
• Image references dropped straight into your viewport
• Camera Snap to keep overlays locked across views
• Depth Swapping to move guides in front or behind geometry
• Resolution-friendly, adapts automatically to any aspect ratio

I purchased the product and wanted to avoid leaving a bad review, but the HDA is spitting out loads of errors in H21.0.596 and there is no documentation on how to make it work, nor can I find a way to contact the developer.

I was hoping that I could have a camera that is 1920x1920 and quickly preview how it would crop to a vertical 9x16 frame as well as a horizontal 16x9 frame, but when using the aspect ratio mode it isn't obvious how to set that up. The buttons also don't have any labels to indicate what their function is and when you hover over them the only text says 0.

The console also spits out all these errors when creating or deleting the HDA:
