Blackmagic said the free-to-download Fusion 7 includes “almost all” of the features found in the Studio version of the software, apart from plugins, multi user, multi-processing and stereoscopic functionality.

“Visual effects software has been expensive for way too long and it’s time that this changed,” said Blackmagic chief executive Grant Petty.

“Consumers are screaming for more exciting movies and television programmes and so we need to do everything we can to help our customers create stunning visual effects.

Now, with the free version of Fusion, everyone from individual artists to the biggest studios can create Hollywood-calibre visual effects and motion graphics.
