Autodesk Smoke 2013: it really changed for the better

Autodesk has been saying for quite a few weeks now that Smoke is changing and they were right. What was previously a very high-end, very expensive, somewhat inaccessible piece of post-production software is now a very high-end, much more affordable (though still expensive for many) and more approachable piece of post-production software. The biggest news of all is that Smoke for Mac has gone from $15,000 down to $3,495. The second bit of news is that it should be a lot easier for editors to use.

Our Sessions at Post|Production World 2012

Adobe has announced a new version of their Creative Suite at the last three NAB shows in a row. Unfortunately, they usually don’t announce it until late Sunday night before the show opens, meaning we’ve not been able to reveal in advance what we’ll be talking about at the associated Post|Production World conference (requires separate registration and fee), resorting to generic titles and descriptions instead.

This year, with Adobe tipping their hand several days before the show (here’s our preview of AE CS6), we have a chance to give you a better heads-up about what we’ll be demonstrating, in case you want to take a break from the show floor and sit in a couple of sessions:
