Smoke video effects software combines editing workflows with node-based compositing tools in a timeline-based editing environment, helping production studios increase productivity.

Features include:

• Timeline-based creative workflow - Center your creative work around an easy-to-use, track-based, nonlinear-editor workflow with powerful visual FX tools.
• ConnectFX node-based compositing - Go directly from the timeline to ConnectFX, so you can create sophisticated effects without leaving the timeline.
• Powerful compositing in Action - Action combines keying, tracking, transformation, deformation, lighting, and shading tools in an interactive 3D workspace.
• 3D text and geometry - Import 3D geometry and create dynamic 3D titles with bevels, textures, and per-character animation controls.
• Dynamic trimming - Tell your story easily with dynamic trimming tools that adjust timing and timeline navigation.
• Smoke and FCP X - Improved XML support provides more accurate translation of speed changes, timeline effects, and interoperability.
• Matchbox in timeline - Access, build, and apply custom shaders and transitions using the Matchbox GLSL shader creation tool.
• MediaHub workflow - MediaHub offers a flexible, intuitive way to manage the media in your project—from conform to edit to effects and archiving.
