Can I make a sharp GIF?

Yes. The GIF comes out at the size of your scene, whatever you set it to. Keep it short so the file stays light.

Can I use my own music?

Yes. Add an audio file, and it's included in the MP4 or WebM you export.

Is there a limit on projects?

No. Keep as many as you want in your browser, and save any of them as a .smooth file.

Can I bring my VistaCreate designs in?

Yes, as images: download your design or its parts as PNG, add them to a scene and animate them.

Can I schedule posts from smooth.video?

No. Export the video and post or schedule it with the tool you already use.

VistaCreate vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

You're animating a logo, a title, a product or a stat, want to set the motion yourself, and need a sharp GIF or a 4K video without paying for a plan.

The animation matters more than the layout: an intro, a lower third, an animated stat, a Reel. You want the timing and motion exactly right, and a 4K or transparent export for free.
