FluidMorph for FCP?

I saw a post about this from someone else but it was for Motion and Shake. I'm looking for an effect that is like FluidMorph in the Avid but for FCP. Even if there's a plug-in I can get I just want to find out how I can create something similar to this:

CHV do a morphing plug-in as an alternative.

Is this just for still images?

From the website linked above:

"You can save the morph as as still image snapshot or as a full animated QuickTime movie."

Yeah, but it's only with still images and then you can export as a movie. I'm not working with still images. I'm just looking for an effect like the FluidMorph transition in Avid Media Composer so I can morph the end of one clip into the beginning of another clip. I do it in Avid all the time but unfortunately I can't find a transition/effect in FCP like it.

All of the transition points in the example movie you posted are stills. In fact the whole example movie is made of stills.

you would be looking for the CHV option

Oh, OK. I never used that app so...

Anyway, there's always this: http://www.chv-plugins.com/cms/FxPlug/Morphing/Morphing.php
or buy a copy of Shake, has a morphing tool built in.
