Text to Smoke using HitFilm Express

My third tutorial for ProductionCrate.com went live a little over a week ago.  I was issued the challenge of turning text into smoke, and with the help of several ProductionCrate assets — mostly from the small mist and smoke collection — I came up with this:

I’m a little behind in sharing these tutorials I’ve done for ProductionCrate, as well as others I’ve been invited to make for FXHOME, creators of the HitFilm VFX and editing software, but I plan on catching up slowly over the next little while.  New guest pieces for both of them, as well as new HitFilm tip videos for my own Clever Tagline channel, will be added as they’re released.  Pinky promise.

  1. Can you please share the hfp file too? Followed all the steps in the video. Still not being able to arrive at the same effect. I am just a student of HitFilm Express. Your help would be highly appreciated.

    1. Unfortunately I cannot share the project file. The specific assets that I used from ProductionCrate are only accessible with their Pro account, and I can’t give those away for free.

      What problem are you running into when trying to recreate the setup?
