    Clip-Based Proxy Quality Workflow - Smoke 2017

    This video covers the redesigned proxy workflow in Smoke 2017. This new proxy workflow is clip-based and allows you to boost interactivity and performances when you need it.

You also go through the process of localised Proxy Generation at the clip, ConnectFX setup and Sequence level.

    Action - Render Layers and Render Passes - Smoke 2017

    In this video, we cover the redesigned Output menu in Action which now supports Render Layers and Render Passes. Similar to other Autodesk 3D Applications, you now define a Render Layer and assign multiple render passes to the Render Layer.

    Action - The Live Preview Viewer - Smoke 2017

    This video will cover a major new improvement to Action known as the Live Preview Viewer. This is a pixel-based “What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get” viewer and will give you accurate representations with all Action processing effects including lighting, anti-aliasing and motion blur. So even when working in Action, everything you see is actually the final render. This has major implications for all aspects of Action. This also allows for icons in the context view and timeline views. Please note that the old 3D view no longer shows any shader or processing effects, you need to be looking through the Live Preview in Smoke 2017.

    Burn-In Metadata - Smoke 2017

    In this video, we’ll look at the workflow of the new Burn-In Metadata tool in Smoke 2017. This replaces the old Burn-In Timecode which is no longer available in the application. With Burn-In Metadata, you have access to loads more information you can burn into an image and it’s also more customizable the the retired Burn-In Timecode. One final big benefit is that Burn-In Metadata is now available as a TimelineFX, as a node in Batch and BatchFX and as a separate module in the Tools Area of the Desktop. So its accessible every where when you need it.

    TimelineFX Player Icons - Smoke 2017

    In this video, we cover the new ability to adjust icons and widgets in the player at the sequence level. So if you like to use gestural actions to adjust setting in the viewer, you no longer need to do it in a VFX editor. Making adjustments at the sequence level is a massive timesaver with fewer menus to navigate.
