It feels like post-santa just arrived and dropped off the replacement to Shake I’ve always wanted.

Here’s a few tutorials https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrwd7_Tc3c9xUs3jbiZ0rKxGWrdtsbsSd

Blackmagic’s own tutorials page is fairly comprehensive to newcomers and those looking to “readjust” their perspective from other node-based compositors.

The fact that it actually has waveform/vector scope puts it in a different (I didn’t say better) league than AE & Motion and the video out support of course should be mandatory for a pro app (ahem, Motion 5 I’m looking at YOU).

I’ve been using Motion 5 instead of AE since the breakup with Adobe (we still get back together once in awhile cuz we both know the same clients) and for most things it’s as good and sometimes better, sometimes worse. A third option is always a plus.

For in-depth, project based training – CMIVFX, FXPHD and Digital Tutors also have training titles that are worth checking out.

AE has had video scopes via Color Finesse since CS5…

EDIT: Make that v6.5…

Ah true I remember playing with that years ago. But not exactly the same thing is it? Do you have to add cf to get the scopes? But AE has video out so I can always use scopes on the Flanders.

Good info!
