In Flame 2023.2, the team have continued to improve the Flame interface when it comes to node compositing.

So now you have custom layouts in Batch, allowing you easily switch up the Batch UI as you perform certain tasks.

This matches what you can currently do in the Effects Environment.

So you’ll learn how to switch between the different Batch layouts, create your own Batch layouts, and some of the differences when using the layouts in either the Batch Environment or Effects Environment.

One of the many small improvements in Flame 2023.2 is a couple of automated functions to make your life even easier.

In this video, you’ll touch on automatic Batch durations as well as automatic durations when setting up render and write file nodes.

In the Flame 2023.2 update, a few enhancements have been made to the render and write file nodes based on your feedback.

So in this video, we’ll discuss setting up a render, looking at the render duration, offsetting Timecodes where needed and various improvements to the Write File node which should make the Open Clip and Versioning workflows a lot easier.

As your composites grow larger in the Batch Schematic, it can sometimes get difficult to locate and find the nodes you’re looking for.

As of Flame 2023.2, A new search tool has been added to the Batch Environment to help you find exactly what you want based off a set of criteria.

In this video, you’ll learn how to search for specific nodes in the Batch Schematic, explore the various search options as well as set up presets for frequent quick and easy searching.

When it comes to handling multi-channel media in Flame 2023.2, there have been a few significant improvements to make it easier within the Flame workflow.

So in this video, you’ll look at the multi-channel clip, the Multi-Channel rules, changes in Action Outputs And finally, how multi-channel media is now handled in the Render and Write File nodes.

With Flame 2023.2, the team have continued to add more functionality to the animation editor based on your feedback.

So now you can manipulate your animation keyframes using an Edit Box, giving you a more interactive experience when retiming and scaling an animation.

This video will cover using the Edit Box on the Curves as well as using the Edit Box with the Dope Sheet.

Flame 2023.1 brings a host of improvements to the revamped animation editor. This is mostly based on your feedback!

This video covers usability improvements, range and keyframe indicators, selection enhancements, curve display, new filtering criteria and new expression linking options.

With the release of Flame 2023.1, more Python functionality has been added to the Flame Products. This is available via the Flame API and a full list is available on the Flame "What's New" Documentation. This includes the new PyTransition for the Timeline and various MediaHub controls. This video will specifically cover browsing and messaging functionality using Python. This should enhance your user experience while driving Flame through scripting.

When it comes to caching and rendering in the Flame products, you have a variety of formats to choose from. You would determine what to use based on your workflow and the type of media you are using.

The Flame products have always been designed with this in mind and in Flame 2023.1, The menus and options have adjusted in order to give you better clarity. So you'll learn about render format choices and format details when selecting the appropriate format for your project.

One of the crucial aspects of running your Flame product is to ensure that your disks have enough performance in order to give you a great Flame experience.

With Flame 2023.1, you now have access to "easy to use" disk performance tools which can be used at various different levels.

So in this video, you'll go through the process of testing the performance of your project's media cache as well as testing the performance of media at their original location.

Flame 2023 introduces a revamped animation editor with loads of modernisation and updates.

Over the next four videos we'll cover features and improvements for a better user experience when working with animation in Flame.

Starting off, you'll go through the updated interface and cover some of the new default behaviours which have been carefully chosen to improve your navigation and workflow of the animation channels.
