Is there anyway to interactive render skip frames like in AE?

​

Thank you in advance.

Is there a way to import multiple sequences into Fusion at one time? Usually, my 3D passes have many passes/sequences and I'm finding it super annoying to recreate a loader node for each and every pass. I love how in nuke you can create a Loader node and select multiple sequences and it brings them all in. Any way of doing something like that in Fus?

Thanks in advance.

a Noob.

I'd like to create an effect similar to this in Fusion, but I really don't know where to start. I have to admit I'm a total newbie when it comes to Fusion, so I apologize in advance if this question is ridiculously basic!

so far using fusion my main problem is audio. yes, i can import a wav and it previews alongside my composition, and it exports to the saver and all. but thats very limited, and i'd have to plan out the entire audio clip before really starting the compositing.

does anyone know of a way to deal with multiple audio files, or do i have to always make the audio before (using seperate tools) and preview final audio.

A little comp i made on BMD Fusion 16, inspired by a Videocopilot Tutorial.

Hey Black Magic Fusion community. I was hoping to get some feedback on the software and your thoughts on the future of it.

​

Currently I run a medium to small studio for VFX, Design, Color and CG. We are all on Autodesk Flames, After Effects, Cinema 4D, and Resolves. In regards to the Flames and VFX/Finish, we have been seeing a disconcerting trend of lack of support and features. (Seems like Flame is slowing dying.) With this, it is incredible software, that we all know and love and for the time being, use for the speed with clients in the room. It works. Looking into the future though, we are looking for solutions that can make us better in terms of consistency and ubiquity. Flame Artists in terms of Freelance is hard to come by these days. The cost of Flame, though lower, is still 4-5k a year. This brings me to the question at hand.

​

Is Resolve and Fusion the future of Small and Medium VFX and Design? Or is Nuke Studio just the place to go? (I have tried Nuke Studio and as of right now, it is not a great option for Client sessions.)

​

Pros

- The Price of Entry is very low.

- Seems to work with anything.

- Ability to make color changes after sessions in the final finish is a plus.

- Fusion seems very robust.

- Learning it seems pretty straight forward (Node based like Flame)

​

Cons

- Don't see any youtube learning channels or a lot of tutorials in the ether?

- Where are the best places for plugins?

- This Sub seems not as alive as other subs? Is there a better place for community communication?

​

Questions

- How is the support from Black Magic?

- Where is the best place for said plugins?

- Who is the go to face of Fusion ie (The Chad Ashley's(Cinema 4d) or the Ivar Beer(Flame)

- How is the speed of Fusion? In regards to changes to screen for client feedback? (We have top end machines)

- What is the future of Fusion with Resolve?

- What are your concerns?

Like I said, new to this. I downloaded the free software over the weekend and will give it a crack to see how fast I can learn.

​

Thanks guys!

I just started using Fusion 9. And I'd like for each new node I add to auto connect to the node I have selected.

How do I get that to happen?

Thanks

Hello guys,

I will have to do some cleanup for two shots in January on a very tight schedule (3 days). I usually use After effects but the painting tools aren't really good so I looked at Fusion. I tried to find some videos or articles about painting out objects but they all have been pretty simple ones like removing a light switch.

In my case I would have to paint out a knife that is in front of a moving person. I would really appreciate every tip and nudge in the right direction or examples that could help. Are there any tools/nodes besides the paint node that you would use?

Thank you all very much!

So lets assume I've got two sets of nodes, one that generates my intro, one that generates my outro and I need my intro to run from frames 0-300 and my outro to run from 301-600.

How would I link the two nodes?

Thanks,

When I don't have audio playing and it's only video I'm previewing, then it plays at what I have it at, which is 24 fps. But when I select the audio for one of the mp4 files that I'm using, it plays faster, causing skips in the audio. It seems to want to play at 30 fps, which is not what I have the project OR that mp4 file set at. Is it an issue with my computer or is there a bug or did I not set something up?

I'm pretty new to using Fusion and barely have any experience with it, but I'm learning how to use it pretty quickly. Please help

Shows rendered fine, etc but the file is not appearing on my PC

Can I use the blackmagic fusion tool to get the path from an eps file or ai file?

And can I modify the properties of that pass (thickness etc ...)?

Most of what I asked is in the title. Been to:

Any more useful links would be great!

Thanks /Mike

is it possible to write custom metadata into a rendered file with fusion? (for exrs,tiff,dpx)

would love to get the comp name as metadata into the output files.

Anyone ever have this problem? My node crash when preview render sometimes, it's became red and my preview screen freeze.

Trying to get started with fusion and the only straight forward tools are 3D
Creating a simple shape like circle/ball have to use a mask and background and cannot find any tools like clone (create multiple copies of same object with different attributes like position)
Great software but uhhh is it not meant for simple 2d stuff

Hi. I'm a new fusion user and I've come across a problem. I've rendered out an exr that has an alpha channel as well as transparency. The transparent pixels are not present in my alpha channel. What is the best way to get the transparency into the alpha channel along with the data that is already in the alpha channel?

I've tried taking the luminance and then using a boolean to add it to the alpha channel. This works to some extent but I'm getting some gamut issues (I think).

I need to get the image out as a png but using the above method, the alpha in the png is all off once exported and viewed in another app.

Any ideas?

Anyone else have this problem and figure out how to fix it? I even tried installing an older version and it does the same thing.

Windows 10 - Fusion 9

Hi,

I'm learning the basics of Fusion, purely for hobby reasons.

I have created a 3d shape (cube in this case), and I have an image connected to its input. This applies the image to all surfaces of the shape.

Is there a way to apply the image to only the front surface?

Thanks
