“HitFilm now has the fastest, easiest method for bringing your lightsaber duels to life. They’re also taking it a step further, by giving users a downloadable project file for both the Dark Side and Light Side, along with their special edition of HitFilm 3 Express, so that budding effects artists can hit the ground running. So, to celebrate the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the rebels at Hitfilm are offering force lightning and lightsaber effects plugins for their free “special edition” of HitFilm 3, to give rebel filmmakers who want to play in the Star Wars sandbox a taste of just what they can do with the HitFilm platform. Even Freddie Wong and the gang at RocketJump used HitFilm to create their professional grade visual effects for Video Game High School (VGHS). Hitfilm is a popular visual effects package for many online filmmakers, including Ryan Connolly from Film Riot and Sam and Niko from Corridor Digital.

Rebel filmmakers, striking from their basements, have struck a major blow against the tyranny of expensive visual effects. Evading the dreaded movie making software forced upon citizens by the evil Empire, a group of freedom fighters have established a new haven for creative filmmakers. The Rebels are now arming a new generation of filmmakers with HITFILM 3 EXPRESS, a single weapon powerful enough to create an entire film (imagine it in a Star Wars style credit crawl)…”
It is a time of unprecedented creativity. That’s because they’re offering free plugins for Star Wars style special effects for their free version of HitFilm 3 Express, and if you like what you see, there’s more where that came from, sweetheart. When it comes to offering visual effects for science fiction movies (especially one in particular from a galaxy far, far away), the Force is strong with HitFilm.
