Re: Smoke pretty much describes it.

The combination of AE, FCP or AVID, etc.. is very cost effective and does a lot. There just has to be quite of bit of patience for the rendering.
I believe what you get out of Smoke for the money is speed. It's the fastest compositor I've every worked with. But it is expensive and the plug-in's, service contracts and upgrades are all ridiculously overpriced.
You also get one of the best video signals, clean keys, and great color correction that is pretty much unmatched by any Avid or FCP video card.
As far as learning Smoke...it does have a tough learning curve and takes time and patience at first. I was hired to learn a new system years ago and now do freelance Smoke editing in the market. There are not that many systems out there compared to Avids and FCP's.
