HitFilm Ultimate Editor's Review
There are several video editing and compositing software for Windows platform but few can be as versatile as HitFilm Ultimate. It lets you create amazing quality movies with eye caching effects and add your customizations. Its particle effects are really impressive and outshine the effects present in most of its rivals. It is a suitable application for people who want to create professional and stylish animated titles and movies.
HitFilm Ultimate runs on PCs with Windows Vista 64 bit version and later editions. The installation is standard. You will need a very powerful PC to extract maximum performance from this application. The GPU needs to support OpenGL 2 or later versions. The minimum memory requirement is 2 GB but ensure you get twice that amount to make it run well.
The software has a sleek blackish interface with clearly defined tabs indicating feature set. HitFilm Ultimate has three workspace layouts that can be switched by the users as per usage needs. By default, you get the setup for editing and compositing. The panels can be customized too. It supports popular media formats like AVCHD, AVI, and MP3 etc.
In the software, you get a number of effects found in run of the mill video editors such as distortion, color correction, artistic effects etc. However, the amount of control you are given for these effects is amazing. The preview smoothness and precision is exemplary. As a matter of fact, HitFilm Ultimate can also cater to timeline editing chores but that is not its area of strength.
HitFilm Ultimate has Imagineer System’s Mocha inbuilt to resolve the issue of 3D space matching when creating visual effects. To use it, you need to define two or more planes inside a video clip and putting the application on target as it measures the planes and the camera pans. Based on the movement, it estimates camera movement in third dimension. This is then exported as animated camera details back to HitFilm Ultimate. Thereafter, Particle effects can be used in it in 3D space a convincing manner.
Mocha’s accuracy with various scenes can vary. In some scenes, the 3D camera tracking system may fail to conceive the planes defined by users. It can be a hit and miss thing at best. In this software you also get 3D effects for application on texts. You can also import 3D models in formats like OBJ or 3DS. While models need to be made in third party apps, it is possible to divide them in parts within this app and animate them separately.
HitFilm Ultimate lets you create stunningly realistic visual effects. For example, a tool like Moving particle emitter can be used to generate particles when they hit a surface, enabling you to simulate virtual fireworks and explosions better than before. It can also react to audio input.
HitFilm Ultimate projects are now compatible with Sony’s Vegas Pro 12 software. This enables you to open a HitFIlm project like media files directly within Vegas. No exporting is required. This is a huge timesaver. It is good that the app saves your project automatically after an interval. Apart from the FAQ found in the company site, you will benefit from using the excellent video tutorials. They are beneficial both for beginners and advanced users.
Positive Points:
• Integration with Third party apps.
• Excellent Particle simulator.
• 3D import and manipulation.
• Excellent tutorials and online support.
Negative Points:
• No support for 32 bit Windows versions.
• Requires a beefy computer.
• Mocha 3D Camera tracking is a mixed bag.
Conclusion:
Overall, HitFilm Ultimate is a promising and unique vfx and video editing software that will appeal to seasoned users and enthusiasts. Managing the 3D animation and camera tracking within the app can be complex and it is a feature clearly meant for veteran users. The range of video effects lends a 3D quality to 2D media. Extrude feature is suited for text though it is applicable on other objects. The Atomic Particle feature is a nice thing for making some visually appealing moments in your video. While HitFilm cannot unseat the undisputed segment leader, Adobe After Effects, the app costs a third of its price. You have to consider the fact that with the stunning vfx and 3D tools, you are also getting a decent video editor in this tool. The downsides include restriction to 64 bit windows versions and steep hardware requirement. The app also focuses a lot more on CG and effects than editing part.
Rating: 3.5/5
