"Hitfilm 4 Pro - A Powerhouse Compositing, Editing and Special FX Software"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Fxhome by Artlist?

Hitfilm 4 Pro is not only vastly powerful, but it's very user friendly. With comprehensive search features, it is pretty easy to find any particular effect, filter or transition. I love that it combines high-end compositing, chromakey, effects, color grading and match-moving with excellent video editing and export capabilities. It can import 3D objects and 2D and 3D compositing are both supported. It has RAM based preview rendering, includes Boris 3D Titles and Mocha for Hitfilm, which really puts it in a special place in visual effects. Hitfim 4 Pro has some of the most advanced particle effects in the industry and there is almost nothing you can't do. It's lighting capabilities is second to none and animating in general is just plain intuitive and fun! It has all the power and not a very high price tag for all that power and professionalism. Lastly, the community is amazing. Tons of tutorials to help you, amazingly good support from FXHome and an active Forum where you can hang out, learn things, ask questions and have fun.

What do you dislike about Fxhome by Artlist?

There are very small things that are missing, but I would like FBX import and multi-select, but these are not game changers by any means. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Fxhome by Artlist:

For the price, you simply cannot beat its feature set, power and versatility. It has become a mature, stable product with a massive variety of effects and capabilities. Its compositing is up there with After Effects and its video editing is now powerful enough to work on full projects without having to use any other software save photo editing.

What problems is Fxhome by Artlist solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hitfilm 4 Pro has actually consolidated many of my tasks into one application. I can now shoot video and green screen footage, key them, color grade, add special effects complete with particles, import 3D objects and animate everything with excellent visual support and then edit it all in the same application. I am creating everything from music videos, to video for client projects and even small indie films. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
