Seems like it's time to start thinking about F9. For windows users F8 was a bit of a disappointment since it was primarily a minor interface tweak with few new features. Hopefully we can get a good request list together to let the Fusion team know where the user base would like to go with the program. It's too bad we can't do some polling for features to let everyone vote on what they'd like to see.
Here's my wishlist so far:
Interface:
Features:
Other tools that would be nice to have eventually:
Here's my wishlist so far:
Interface:
- Purple tool ribbon: Change to match when gray interface is selected.
- Gamma / Gain sliders: add them to view windows. This is immensely useful in Nuke and much easier than dealing with Fusion's lut system.
- Fix new folder / up directory buttons in file load window: At present it's near impossible to tell which is which without hovering over the buttons to get tool-tips.
- Better keyframe visualization on time-line: A single thin green line makes it difficult to tell which frame a keyframe is actually on.
- Improved spline editor: The ability to see X & Y coordinates in spline editor in addition to the pre-existing displacement curve.
Features:
- Adaptive resolution: I would love to see new scripts adopt the resolution of the footage added to them (as an option of course).
- Denoise: A better denoise tool would be nice. Perhaps the one from Resolve. If it's in Fusion Studio only, that's cool.
- Better color tools: I find the color corrector tool to be a bear. There are buttons, panels, and tabs everywhere. One can easily get lost in it - and inheriting a comp with some crazy color correctors in it can be a real pain in butt. I'd love to see some Resolve color grading tools pollinate to the Fusion side.
- More robust channel support: See Nuke's ability to easily add channels on the fly, swap, customize, and use them with nearly any node in the program.
- Addmix with A/B curve support.
- Spline warp / morph tool.
- Improved keyers.
Other tools that would be nice to have eventually:
- Planar tracker
- Camera (3D) tracker
- Spherical stereo camera (for VR projects)
