I've got a lot of time invested in my Vegas Pro workflow.

I never thought I would have this stuff unless it came in a Vegas upgrade. I love the free plugins I got with the free Ignite Express, and I'm very familiar with what comes extra with Ignite Pro. I can understand how some people may feel they don't need this, but I use Vegas Pro and a lot of plugins from companies like NewBlue and Boris. If you use it once, it'll have paid for itself. with After Effects like effects/compositing.Īt $30, if you work with video at all, it's worth having in the tool-box. Hit-Film combines a pretty decent video editor. You've got to have excellent/even lighting on the green-screen. but nowhere close to Primatte Studio or Davinci Resolve. If you have higher-end video tools, Hit-Film is likely not going to replace them. If you have a new iPhone (new video and photo formats), your existing editor might not (yet) be compatible. Davinci Resolve (feature wise) is nothing short of amazing. As the session grew a bit more complex, the timeline got scrambled. Ie: I've run into issues with Davinci Resolve where the timeline was fine for basic cuts/edits. and having an alternative was the only way to get work finished. Steve also shows how to work with 3D models and incorporate them into videos-including simulating real-world depth and perspective with the free mocha HitFilm plugin.FWIW, From my experience using video editing software (Adobe, Vegas, Davinci Resolve, etc), it's good to have several options. You'll use HitFilm to add muzzle blasts, rocket fire, phaser beams, and other explosive action effects to your movies.

Along the way, you'll look at how to draw from the program's exciting library of preset effects (including motion tracking and particle simulation), as well as how to build effects and animations from scratch. In this course Steve Grisetti shares the three ways HitFilm 3 Pro can be used: as a video editor, as a tool for adding 2D video effects to your movie, and as a compositing tool for creating amazing 3D and planar-tracking effects. It combines an intuitive compositing interface with a full-featured editing timeline and a huge library of presets and overlays that will have you creating professional-style CGI effects with a few simple clicks. HitFilm Pro is an exciting video-effects program.
