With hardware acceleration from Intel OpenVINO technology, VEGAS Style Transfer brings one of the most exciting creative uses of artificial intelligence yet.

Colorization

Discover The Advanced Toolset

Once again, VEGAS Pro stands out as an innovative leader when it comes to non-linear editing. The modern user interface delivers a completely customizable experience that provides Superior flexibility. Innovative approaches and editing tools speed up your workflow and make you more efficient and ultimately more creative. Focus on your creativity, not your tools.

Video Stabilization

Turn shaky footage into smooth, pro quality video. The video stabilization engine has been rebuilt from the ground up with our state-of-the-art technology, resulting in a feature that is easy to use and provides smooth results every time.

Planar Motion Tracking

Not every object sits square to the camera. Your motion tracking should account for that. Now, Planar Motion Tracking does. Track and pin text or apply color grading to objects moving in perspective, turning toward you or away from you and changing dimensions as perspective changes. Objects not square to your camera? Use Planar Motion Tracking.

Nested Timelines

Organize projects and speed up your workflow with nested timelines that you create from any events in your main timeline.  And you can still access your nested timelines as independent projects, so it's easy to share a portion of your project with a colleague while you maintain control over the master project.

Editing tools to take you further

Denoise filter

Reduce low-light and other video noise to salvage grainy, unclear video footage. Transform your noisy video into sharper, cleaner more usable footage with the Denoise filter.

Flicker Control filter

Greatly reduce or even entirely remove video flickering caused by neon lights and other sources. Or use the Flicker Control filter to add video flicker as a special effect.

Color Grading

Complete HDR color support

Work with industry-leading HDR tools in VEGAS Pro. Grade your colors with HDR grading tools while previewing in HDR either within VEGAS or on external HDR hardware. All powered by GPU-based open color I/O processing and with new ACES 1.1 color standards. HDR10 and HLG support from beginning to end.

Unified Color Grading workflow

VEGAS Pro provides an efficient, logical color grading workflow. Adjust colors with sensitive color wheels and curves. Advanced options like a logarithmic exposure control, adjustable Vectorscope skin tone line and combined RGB Parade display enable you to grade your colors more precisely.

Improved Color Curves

Color curves are an indispensable tool for professionals, and now VEGAS Pro features even more powerful curves. We’ve added automatic color balance to our color curves tool. Apply automatic corrections with the option for manual control to adjust your colors fully as desired.

Special Effects

Threetimes Boris FX plug-in power

The highly sophisticated Lens Flare 3D visual effect allows you to create many different styles and looks, like traditional lens flares which occur when a point light source is turned toward a camera lens, or even spectacular special effects that are often seen in science fiction movies. Lots of preset looks serve as a useful starting point in generating a customized look which can be saved and reused on future projects and comps. And with the integrated Motion Tracker you can automatically lock or track the Lens Flare to a specific element in your scene.

Style Transfer

Use the power of artificial intelligence to stylize your videos so that they look as though they were painted in the style of famous artists, such as Picasso or van Gogh.
