Has anyone on here done that? And advice or pitfalls to consider?
TIA
I have moved a lot of both autodesk and foundry compositing to fusion, from an economics viewpoint for low budget it makes a lot of sense. Also from a hardware viewpoint, the mac option with fusion has allowed newer machines to be used. For a transition to apple silicon mac, the prores alpha issues on fusion are pretty much a show stopper (you will need to switch to dnxhr). Most of the other transition stuff I have actually learned to like fusion better, there's some nuke to fusion guides that are usuful that even helped me off of autodesk. The only real thing I still struggle with is facial detailed roto's in fusion, i just have never felt comfortable in fusion doing this. Especially given how wonderful the flame roto process is, maybe someone else can pipe in on this? It seems that a lot of the nice roto stuff is still on the davinci/color tab, but I mainly work in fusion standalone since I prefer the composite files rather than the full davinci database.
