\"Autodesk<\/p>\n

Autodesk is making a splash in the post production industry with the rollout (and continuous improvement) of their Smoke video editing and compositing application<\/a><\/strong>. Smoke provides a comprehensive post production workflow. Do your editing and finishing (compositing, grading and visual effects) in one application, without roundtripping to other apps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Autodesk continues to add new tools and functionality to Smoke<\/strong>, taking in advice from video professionals that are using it on a daily basis. They promise many new features in upcoming releases.<\/p>\n

The release of Smoke 2013<\/strong> comes with a significant price drop over previous versions, making it more accessible to a wider\u00a0user-base\u00a0(it can be purchased on the Autodesk site for $3495<\/a><\/strong>). If you’re not ready to drop that kind of cash you can also take it for a FREE 30 day trial run<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We met up with Marc-Andre Ferguson<\/a><\/strong>, Autodesk’s main man behind Smoke 2013, to get his insight into why Smoke provides a unique toolset for video professionals. \u00a0Check out that interview here:<\/p>\n
