ButtleOFX

Composite and edit video with free open-source software

Visit ButtleOFX

ButtleOFX is an open source compositing application for creating special effects on photos and videos. It is built on TuttleOFX, a modular image processing architecture, and was developed over a two-year term by teams of French students at the IMAC engineering school.

The application provides an intuitive Graph Editor for connecting nodes such as IO, color transformations, geometry, and text burn, along with a Parameters Editor for customizing effects. It includes an integrated Browser for finding and importing images, three workspace layouts, and a dedicated interface for creating effects without building a graph. The project is distributed as an Alpha release available for download.
