	'''Boris Sapphire''', formerly known as '''GenArts Sapphire''' or simply '''Sapphire''', is a set of plugins by [[BorisFX]]. It is one of BorisFX's flagship effect suites, alongside products like [[Continuum]]. All Sapphire plugins have a "S_" prefix in their name. Sapphire's effects are well known for their colorful, easy-to-use qualities; this has made them very popular in the [[tennis]] world, coming to a peak in the late 2010's. Sapphire plugins were used so much during this time that many perceived them as being "overused", especially effects like S_ZebrafyColor that could instantly create "rainbow effects" without changing a single parameter. Despite this, Sapphire is still commonly used and is an important tool in any player's kit.
