  • Two software Questions. SVP 13 and After FX

    Posted by Scott Francis on January 4, 2014 at 3:13 am

    Hey All,

    Anyone aware of Sony’s timeframe on SVP13?
    Also, anything I can use that is close to AFX? I am pricing things out for my churches video program and I am looking for cost saving things. I REALLY don’t like the idea of renting software so AFX is something I would like to avoid if possible.

    Thanks in advance for any input

    Regards

    You need Hitfilm Ultimate 2 from UK based fxhome.com

    It’s $399 but there are offers usually from tubetape.com etc.

    Hitfilm features REAL 3D model import with shadows. In many ways it’s superior to AFX but doesn’t support scripting and plugins.

    Try the trial

    Peace.

    Yes, Hitfilm Ultimate would be the best alternative for
    After Effects fitting your request.
    As for Sony Vegas 13, I do not know the time frame of such a release.

    And it’s $100 this month, direct from the FX Home web site. I get some of this in Boris, but I’m thinking of getting it. Would really be useful in upping the caliber of my a mixed media animations.

    Just checked. It looks like it’s $100.00 off. ($299.00) not $100.00.

    Boris RED is a lot like After Effects and it can also run some AE plug-ins. RED plus right into Vegas Pro so there is no need to render output to use it. HitFilm 2 Ultimate also plugs into Vegas Pro and is part of Vegas Pro 12 Suite.

    Yes, well you could just get Boris FX which was on sale for $150 recently (may still be) but it’s only $199 USD regularly.
