Greetings! I'm Al Bouchard, I live in the Detroit area (yay!) and I'm old enough to have dated God's babysitter. <humor/>
I just had another birthday - okay, I'm 64 now - and I try to keep working on stuff. I've been making films since, well, FILM. (Digital manipulation is much easier.)
I try to keep my aspidistra flying, as they say (how long ago was that?) and may be able to build up a reel one of these days.
Cheers!

@AlBouchard Welcome!

Hey I am Johnny .... but most people call me Wiew (...long story)
I just rolled into Hitfilm because a friend told maybe me this is my kind of playground ;-) , I should check it out ... so
I am using Express to test it out, if the shoe fits I will buy the Pro version
I am 50yo and a composer/musician for 35 years now, played in a lot of bands , did a lot of gigs , made cd's ... ,
The last 20 years I have a professional recording studio
Filming and editing was no more than a hobby for ....like 25 years.
6 years ago I wrote this Rock Opera , it needed a movie and everything suddenly glued together .
After filming and editing the rock opera, people started to ask me to film and edit their projects.
So now I a have a second job for the last 4 years.
What you see below is all done with Pinnacle Studio Ultimate .the software I worked with all those years
At the end of 2020 I stepped up , I buyed Vegas , Boris , and now I am trying out Hitfim

@Wiew I just caught a duplicate of your post in the spam queue. Not sure how it got there, but I deleted it. In case you had submitted it twice, please refrain from doing that in the future. If a comment doesn't show right away, just wait for it to be moderated (if necessary) rather than posting a second time.
That aside, welcome! :) You've got some fun stuff on your reel, and I can't wait to see what you create with HitFilm.

@CleverTagline Sorry , for the rough start , I posted it wrong the first time
Thank you for the welcome , I watched a lot of tutorials on you tube , I think this can be my new "playground"

@Wiew A lot of us in the HitFilm community (myself included) got started with Pinnacle Studio, so you’re in good company!

@Wiew Welcome to the HitFilm community! I also used Pinnacle Studio (for several years in fact) before I switched to HitFilm. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We are a very friendly bunch around here! 😀

Hi, my name is Roger, I am an 2d/3d illustrator/animator, and I am new to Hit Film XP but not new to editing / compositing. I mainly use it for creating animations (mostly image sequences) and I was pleasantly surprised how well it behaved.
Most work I do is for agencies, so nothing to show (NDA) that is recently or worthwhile. I desperately need to update my portfolio... but somehow to busy doing other peoples work :-)
I am from Rotterdam, the Netherlands, so when this pandemic is over, if one of you is in the neighborhood feel free to drop by for a cup of coffee!

@canvasmm Welcome to the Forum! Always good to have experienced artists in the crowd. I look forward to see what you can do with HF. Cheers!

@canvasmm Hey Roger, welkom op de beste forums 😁

Hi gang, my names Martin and I’m new to the party. Live and (semi) work in Bristol, UK. Have discovered Hitfilm Express as a way of keeping myself sane during lockdown. Learning ‘how to’ from some excellent tutorials on YouTube (hello to Film Sensei and others).
as well as learning how to title, I really want to learn how to incorporate 3D models, such as spaceships into space scenes and scenarios. I’ve tried following the ‘click, click’ click’ YouTube videos, but could do with a more basic tutorial on what the properties mean and how to turn a basic shape into something useable. Can anyone direct me to one?
cheers gang.

@fxhomer263128 Welcome! Do you care if the exported 3d model video has a watermark on it? That is the free way to do it, or you could pay around 40 dollars last I checked and make it with no watermark.
Here are some tutorials:
And if that wasn't too overwhelming, and you want it to look really good, I would recommend watching this Saturday's Live Stream on the @FilmSensei Youtube Channel!

Hello @fxhomer263128 ! Welcome aboard! 😀 ... There are so many tutorials about Hitfilm on Youtube that when I want some effect, I search for "Hitfilm [that effect I want] , see? For example, I went to YouTube and typed "Hitfilm space fleet" and I got this one :

Also, like @georgefilmltd said, check out my live stream this Saturday where @Triem23 will be talking about the new Material Shaders.

Thanks for the replies, guys. I look forward to learning from your vast experience and knowledge.

Hello,
Just launched Hitfilm Express - like, literally an hour ago :D Watched a few tutorials on Yotube and I am very excited by what you can do with it. For money, I have a 9 to 5 programming for a marketing company. On my spare time I've been doing music since forever :D Got interested in motion graphics and VFX and 3D-modelling about five years back and while I haven't done anything yet, I like the excitement I get when diving into Fusion, Natron, Blender, OpenFX, I originally started getting into motion graphics to produce something visual for my music projects but everyday it's getting deeper - but it has always been mainly about motion graphics and VFX etc. I have many favorite movies, but let's say Matrix and Star Wars - of TV-series, the original Star Trek and the new one: Discovery, ain't half bad either.
Because any hobby I have, has to have some level of "seriousness" I ocassionally make music for stock libraries and I haven an ongoing project of making royalty-free game music, so working on those next. Needless to say, "what I work on next" to me means waking up tomorrow :D But that's what I will work on in the "multimedia" domain ^_^
