| Submission declined on 23 January 2024 by Utopes (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are: Declined by Utopes 10 months ago.

Comment: You have said what it does.You have not said why it is notable.The references do not verify any notability, stated or unstated.Wikipedia is not a directory of WP:ROTM software products 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 15:01, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Press releases, status updates, developer guides and feature pages do not establish the notability of the subject, which has yet to be demonstrated based on what I'm seeing here. Utopes (talk / cont) 07:56, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: With the exception of ref #5, the sources are of two kinds: the company's own website, or sources that don't even mention Left Angle Autograph. And #5 is not independent, as it is the research institute where the product's creator previously worked. We need to see significant coverage, directly of the product, in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:33, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

Left Angle Autograph is a motion graphics, VFX (visual effects) / compositing software application developed by Left Angle for video production, filmmaking post-production, video game production, and television production[3][4][5][6]
It is supported on Windows, MacOS, and Linux.
There are two versions of Autograph:
- Autograph Studio: intended for professional studios
- Autograph Creator' intended for freelance motion designers and VFX artists[7]
Functions and features
[edit]Autograph functions include animation, 2D & 3D compositing, keying, tracking, template making, responsive design video production, audio mixing, non-linear editing, and media transcoding[8][4][5][9].
Third-party integrations
[edit]Autograph functions can be extended through a variety of third-party integrations, such as OpenFX plug-ins, Python scripts, Shadertoy shaders, and Javascript expressions.
Python scripts
[edit]Autograph Python Scripts can be used to automate repetitive tasks, simplify complex features, and perform complex calculations. They can also be used to extend the user interface with custom PySide panels and QML scripts[10].
