Drive Attributes in BMD Fusion Using the Probe Modifier

If you recall, a little while ago, Black Magic Design purchased Fusion and released a free version of Fusion 7 to the public. The free version of Fusion 7 has some limitations, but for all intents and purposes is still a very capable compositing tool – and you can’t really beat that price.

Since then, CG Artist Vito LaManna has been creating some Fusion tutorials and training, offering little tidbits into the world that is node based compositing within the Fusion 7 framework.

Here, Vito shows how to drive any attribute or set of attributes in Fusion by using a Probe Modifier. The Probe Modifier in Fusion will allow you drive elements using an image map for control.
