Blackmagic Fusion Studio Software

The world’s most advanced visual effects and motion graphics solution

Fusion is the world’s most advanced compositing software for visual effects artists, broadcast and motion graphic designers and 3D animators. With over 25 years of development, Fusion has been used on over 1000 major Hollywood blockbuster feature films. Fusion features an easy and powerful node based interface so you can construct complex effects simply by connecting various types of processing together. That’s super easy and extremely fast. You get a massive range of features and effects included, so you can create exciting broadcast graphics, television commercials, dramatic title sequences and even major feature film visual effects.

Advanced Visual Effects Compositing

Today’s Hollywood film effects are made up of hundreds, sometimes even thousands of different 2D and 3D elements that are composited together to create amazing, realistic looking scenes. Visual effects artists use Fusion to seamlessly blend elements together in a true 3D workspace for the ultimate in realism. Fusion features a node based workflow, can import 3D models and scenes from popular applications, and has hundreds of tools, effects and filters for creating the world’s most convincing and lifelike visual effects.

Broadcast Design and Motion Graphics Animation

Motion graphics artists and broadcast designers use Fusion to create everything from animated broadcast promos and station idents, to incredible title sequences and animations for feature films, episodic television shows, and even commercials. With Fusion, you’re not limited to working with 2D elements, you can import 3D objects and scenes from other applications, or build your own from scratch. Fusion lets you composite elements in a true 3D workspace and then apply hundreds of built in effects, 3D particles and more.

Accelerate your 3D animation workflow

3D animators working in applications like Maya, 3ds Max and Cinema 4D can take charge of their own compositing work for an unbeatable boost to speed and efficiency. Fusion features a familiar flow graph interface along with GPU accelerated tools that let you re-light and add volumetrics to your 3D scenes without having to re-render every time you make a change. Fusion also lets you control the final look of your shot by giving you access to all of its image processing tools, like color correction, blurs and other plug-ins, saving you countless hours of render time.

Nodes, A Better Way to Work

Fusion uses nodes which are small icons that represent effects, filters and other processing which can be connected together to easily build up larger and more complex visual effects. Because nodes are easy to see and connect together, you can combine tools, images, and objects in any order to create unlimited visual effects. Nodes make it easy to adjust any single part of your project simply by clicking on the node and making an adjustment. That’s much faster than a timeline based tool such as an NLE because you don’t need to hunt through nested stacks of confusing layers.

Unlimited Render Power

Fusion has the world’s fastest production quality render engine. You can distribute your render jobs across an unlimited number of networked computers for incredible performance. That means you can render complex scenes incredibly fast to meet the intense deadlines of production, without having to sacrifice creativity or quality.

Simply More Features

Whether you need to pull a key, track objects, retouch images, animate titles, or create amazing particle effects, Fusion has a massive toolset that lets you tackle the most demanding visual effects and motion graphics jobs. You get the world’s best 3D workspace along with tools for compositing, keying, painting, animation, stereoscopic 3D and more, all in a single application.
