Debugmode Wax

Wax in action. Taken from DebugMode's website.

Debugmode Wax, known usually as just Wax is a video compositor for Windows, and the oldschool tool for 3D tennis effects. It was prominent from the late 2000's to the early 2010's, known for its distinct look and unique set of capabilities. It was eventually replaced in the meta by more capable editors like After Effects and Blender or by 3D plugin sets like in BCC.

Wax was notable because of its ability to be used as both a plugin and a standalone editor. If installed as a plugin, you could load it into any 32-Bit video editor (like old version of Vegas) and use it directly inside.
