Features
Revolutionary workflow
Learn about all of the HitFilm Pro features that will take your workflow to the next level. Seamlessly combining a vast array of features providing amateurs and professionals with everything they need to see a project through to the end.
Combined timelines
Switch from one tab to the next as you would on a browser, depending on your needs. Edit in one, composite in the other, and jump back to the editor without any need to load another piece of software.
Personalizable workstation
Adjust your interface using the collapsible and expandable panels. Ensure that you have access to the things you need and aren’t distracted by the panels you don’t. Your personal interface can then be saved as your default layout.
Color coding
Speed up your creative process with visual cues. Easily differentiate between takes, music, and video with clip and track labels.
Personalized playback
Optimize playback for faster edits by customizing playback quality and paused quality. Experience super fast playback in the editor and trimmer without lag and control the quality from the viewer menu, allowing for snappier edits.
Enhanced performance
Enjoy smooth and lightning fast performance thanks to threaded-rendering. With threaded-rendering, the interface and video work independently to speed up your workflow. Users of Intel and Nvidia hardware will notice the incredible power of our GPU decoding.
Mask editing and rendering
Masking is used to create a matte manually. A matte determines which parts of a layer are visible, meaning that masks are used to cut holes in your layers. This can be done using the freehand mask tool or the wide range of customizable shape masks. HitFilm Pro’s mask editing is faster than ever before, speeding up the rotoscoping process. As video quality increases, the software must be capable of handling everything it’s given, which is why performance has been boosted.
Export Queue
HitFilm Pro’s export queue allows you to set up a list of edits and shots to export while you’re away from your desk. If you close down the software, the export will automatically resume when you load it back up.
Export presets
Use presets to configure your export settings for high quality or high compression. Just drag and drop your selected presets, make it the default, and move on to the next task. Export is available in multiple formats, including 32-bit color and industry-standard GoPro Cineform (Win) or QuickTime ProRes (Mac).
Professional formats
HitFilm Pro’s 8K support and RAM preview ensure the best possible quality for your projects. Work with any footage, be it vertical smartphone shots or high-end camera footage.
Intelligent search
Quickly locate what you need with HitFilm Pro’s keyword search. Just a few keystrokes will find any of your media, effects, and composite timelines. Coming from another software system? No problem, our algorithm recognizes keyword links to help you find what you’re looking for.
Layer and track locking
HitFilm Pro features lockable layers and tracks to protect their contents from accidental changes. When a layer or track is locked, a lock icon will appear on the layer.
Video editing
HitFilm Pro provides a range of powerful non-linear editing tools, ensuring you have the right tools for the job.
Animation tools
A large number of advanced animation tools are available within both editor timelines. Create and edit audio and video transitions without the need to create composite shots.
Composite shot enhancements
There are a vast number of animation tools at your disposal in composite shots, more than ever before. Animate two shots at once by using the control panel graph and timeline graphs. If you’re working on a complicated composite shot, you can work on a scene at the top and bottom of the shot simultaneously.
Audio Hard Limiter
Professional audio tools allow you to normalize your audio without the need for external software. Make all the adjustments you need inside HitFilm for pitch-perfect performance.
Unlimited tracks
HitFilm allows you to add unlimited video and audio tracks to your timeline. Your software shouldn’t limit you.
Multiple streams
Gamers rejoice! HitFilm allows you to import files with multiple streams of audio, giving you full flexibility over your workflow.
Picture in Picture
Picture in Picture (or PiP) is a common video style in online content. HitFilm provides a quick solution for this with the Picture in Picture effect, which automatically positions one clip inside another on your layer.
Adaptive Trimmer
You have the power to re-trim your clips after adding them to the timeline. Double-clicking a clip sends it to the trimmer panel, ready for you to make the adjustments you need. Once the necessary changes have been made, the clip on the timeline will be automatically updated.
Behaviors
Behavior Effects provide countless possibilities. Rotate By Layer allows one layer to rotate by a specified multiplier of another layer’s rotation. Creating animated timepieces or orbiting planets has never been so simple. This is just the start of the capabilities of Behavior Effects.
Vertical video
Uploading vertical videos shouldn’t be punishing – HitFilm provides support for vertical videos. You can even create blurred versions of the original video to fill the edges and fit alternative aspect ratios.
Compositing and layering
Add new dimensions to your filmmaking by bringing together 3D layers, models, and particle simulations in the same space. Create stunning user interfaces by layering 2D graphics directly inside a 3D model.
3D camera projection
Take an ordinary 2D photo and convert it to a projected, 3D scene – complete with camera movement.
Attributes
HitFilm offers the ability to copy a group of attributes from one clip and apply them directly to another, or your whole project. Forgot to grade your first 10 clips? You can grade one and easily apply the same grade to the rest.
Audio mixer
The audio mixer allows you to fine-tune your sound for professional-quality output. Easily modify, balance, and mix tracks – or get precise control over individual elements with mute and solo features.
Transitions
Make a smooth segue or eye-popping transition with HitFilm Pro’s dissolve, push, slide, split, wide, zoom, fade, or iris transition features. You can even build your own transition type within a composite shot or the editor timeline.
Dedicated trimmer
Get your rough cut looking sharp with HitFilm Pro’s dedicated editing trimmer, complete with insert and overlay functionality. Cut it even quicker with customizable keyboard shortcuts to set the ‘in’ and ‘out’ points in the trimmer.
Auto stabilization
Take the hard work out of manually stabilizing any handheld or shaky footage by allowing HitFilm to do it for you. HitFilm Pro features a fully customizable Auto Stabilizer, which can be tweaked to get your shot just right.
GoPro footage
Reframe and adjust 360° photos and videos inside HitFilm. Use the GoPro Lens Reframe effect to tweak the lens curvature and motion blur to get the perfect shot from your footage.
Particle simulator
HitFilm’s Particle Simulator is a powerful tool that allows you to play God. Create weather systems, grow your own cities, or summon swarms of creatures. From grid patterns and fractally-warped, audio-influenced 3D forms to chaotic, physics-driven simulation – it’s all in HitFilm Pro.
Emitters
The emitter is where all particle effects begin, specifying where the particles appear and affecting their initial trajectory.
Particle systems
Emitters can contain multiple particle systems. A particle system is the visible part of the particle effect. The properties of a particle system will determine the visual appearance and behavior of each particle at its birth. Once a particle is born, its behavior can be affected by multiple external factors such as deflectors and forces.
Mobile emitters
Emitters can also contain mobile emitters. These are a special type of emitter that are spawned in the same way as particle systems but can then spawn their own particle systems.
Deflectors & Forces
If you want your particles to interact in more interesting ways, deflectors and forces are what you need. Deflectors are areas for particles to collide with and can be shapes generated inside the particle simulator or other layers on your timeline. This is a great way to simulate particles colliding with real-world objects in your live-action footage.
Particle shapes
Create awe-inspiring particle clouds based on 2D shapes or 3D geometry, then warp them into organic forms with extensive fractal distortion. You can even mix in an audio clip to automate the animation.
3D objects as particles
Want to get more creative with your particle design? Simply import your own 3D models as particles to create everything from a fleet of warships to a swarm of locusts.
Post-processing
Take computer-generated particle systems to the next level by adding 2D effects and filters. You can add heat distortion effects to a big explosion or mist over a foggy mountain to give your VFX-powered scenes a more organic look.
A compositor’s toolkit
HitFilm Pro houses over 800 unique effects and presets, each of which can be pulled apart, altered, and put back together again to create something entirely new.
Text and titling
HitFilm Pro features professional text and titling options. Add 3D geometry effects like extrude, bevel, and rotate to your text to create the look you want. The geometry supports lights, shadows, and environment maps. Create instanced titles that you can edit from the editor without going into the comp. For animated titles or lower thirds, take advantage of over 10 presets to get you started.
Fire and lightning
Create procedurally generated fire and lightning with accurate behavior and appearance. Enhance the realism with heat distortion and post-processed lighting effects.
Muzzle flashes
HitFilm Pro’s gunfire effect generates an endless variety of muzzle flashes, from pistols to miniguns. Unlike pre-rendered stock, these effects can be rotated in full 3D to work from any angle.
Repair your footage
Remove unwanted digital grain from your videos and fix jello-vision caused by rolling shutter. Stabilize jittery handheld shots with Auto Stabilizer, or remove distortion from fisheye lenses with Lens Warp.
Lens flares
Mix and adjust flares, anamorphic streaks, light leaks, sparkling highlights, volumetric 3D light rays, and high-quality glows to enhance your cinematography.
360° video
Take advantage of the 360° video viewer panel to view 360° video inside the trimmer. View the original state and adjusted version side by side for easy application of 360° effects.
Puppet tool
Use the Puppet tool to quickly add natural motion to raster images and vector graphics, including still images, shapes, and text characters. The Puppet effect works by deforming part of an image according to the position of pins that you place and move. These pins define what parts of the image should move, what parts should remain rigid, and what parts should be in front when sections overlap.
Color correction & grading
HitFilm comes packed with powerful color correction and grading tools providing you with everything you need to get the polished look you’re after.
Scopes
Use layer-specific Vectorscopes, Waveforms, and Histograms to take your color correction and grading to another level.
Vectorscope
Don’t let your characters blend into the background. The vectorscope viewer identifies skin tones so you can adjust color and saturation. See where color has been removed, how to achieve white balance, and how much tint you’re adding.
Color Support
Use 32-bit color grading to add vibrant color tones and textures that jump off the screen: no banding, no pixels, just smooth gradients, and future-facing films. You can use work from almost any source and resolution – even 8K UHD.
Curves
Allow yourself to bend the truth in each scene. HitFilm Pro’s curve effects give you extremely fine control over the final look of your shots.
Color wheels
If you’re stuck finding the right color for the job, HitFilm Pro’s color wheels give you every option to pick from.
Extensive presets
