In the main tab control at the top of the HitFilm 2 interface you will find the ‘Export’ tab. The export tab contains all the settings you need to configure your final video export. Make sure you select the correct timeline – for me I will select ‘Tutorial’, which is the timeline for my composite shot. Select the format you would like for your final exported video and enable video and audio export.

I left most other settings pretty untouched as they matched the footage I used already.

Finally, hit the Export button and let HitFilm 2 do its thing and export your final project for you.

Once HitFilm 2 is done exporting your video you can play back the completed Gunfire effect to your heart’s content!
