The last update makes the best render in the industry i think, and you can see the best quality in real-time and not just like eeve render cycles give you the best details.
I also struggled with the documentation's organization and level of detail. The interface was also a major challenge.
I love how easy it is to import objects into blender as well how simple conversions are. Blender has an amazing lighting system which I use to create cool animations for game scenes.
There are several things that annoy me with the program, for example non-manifolds that are highlighted when searched for and keep existing after fixed.
Have not got the chance to do 3D animation but I'm recently just following along with the YouTube channel they have. Great add, Please get its a save in money.
The only thing I'll say is this software has was too many different functionalities embedded into a single software that makes it somewhat complicated to use.
It is a great way to make your own animation videos that you can use for fun or for marketing. The graphics are great and the music library has many great music that we can use.
It also requires a bit of processing power to render complex animations, but that problem is more on a case-by-base basis, depending on the users hardware.
Avid is undeniably a powerful software once you become familiar with its basics and intricacies. It offers a wide range of advanced features that can elevate your editing capabilities.
Back then it was the only choice. Along came Apple's Final Cut Pro in the early 2000s introducing more modern drag-and-drop tools that opened up the world of editing to a younger generation.
What I appreciate most about the editing software is its exceptional organization capabilities. The ease of managing and arranging my files and bins brings a sense of order to my workflow.
Media Composer has its fans and most users in the professional long-form media world or film and television, that's notoriously reluctant to change anything.
I feel this is an amazing quality software for the price.
It is the best collaborative tool in the business, allowing assistants and other editors to work in conjunction with one another.
Kaitlin C.: My name's Kaitlin and I am a graphic designer for a promotional product and workforce development company, and I give Blender a 3 out of 5. And other products that we had been using, and one that was more cost-effective and more easily available to our clientele and our employees as they're low income, so. Join the more accessible 3D aspects, it's in this day and age, with 3D printers and other... It just seemed more fun to be doing things the natural 3D on the screen, as opposed to the two dimensionals that was much more catered towards that. And that was one of my favorites aspects. It was just really hard to adapt from one program to another for me and a few others that were trained solely on the other program. And so, it was just the learning curve was there's not much out there on that can learn how to use it as opposed to some other software, so it was just a complicated transition.
