As far as I got, Blender’s features for masks are very good, but then they fall short when you want to tweak the animation curve for animated masks because, well, there are no curves… it’s all linear, they just won’t appear in the graph editor.
So I was wondering if there is some other application that does that, be it specialised or not, maybe specialised for compositing would be a plus actually, considering all the video editing features that are left in the dust by Blender, because I assume the big players don’t care for them and rather fund for the development of all the 3D capabilities, which I care about very little for what I usually do, so I’m not seeing any improvements on that side anytime soon
Natron. I’ve never tried using it, I use Fusion via Resolve.
I’ve considered it, I think I’ll try it at some point, but sadly it looks like development has almost stalled on it, it’s not too bad as long as it works for what I need of course, but it does mean that it will probably die out completely sooner or later and any pain points I might find will never have a resolution
There’s also a stand alone version of fusion, but sadly compositing is a neglected sector of foss software.
