Also, its fantastic community is such a lovely place to be. Using Krita was definitely a pleasant experience for me, with some hiccups, that are bound to be fixed.
Frequent lags, non-detection of the pen, pressure sensitivity issues all plauged me, and eventually I had to move somewhere else.
This program works perfectly with a drawing pad and is so simple to get up and going, the brushes selection is great and the final results look amazing.
First, the documentation is lacking. Sometimes it's just what you expect, but because they are constantly adding features for some features the documentation is missing entirely.
It has been an overall excellent experience. I love using this software, its so easy and intuitive.
I dislike the fact that I had to find external plugins to export animations as videos.
It has a very good selection of brushes and tools. It's great that the software is free, so it can help beginners in design and vector drawing to start their careers for free.
Bit of a learning curve, especially if you have never used a similar product. Lags sometimes on my PC.
Adobe After Effects is an extremely powerful and versatile software which provides users with a comprehensive suite of tools for creating stunning visual effects.
The most disadvantage of Adobe After Effects is that it requires high requirements in the host device for the program, and its price is considered relatively high compared to other programs.
I liked that the software was easy to use and had an intuitive user interface. I also liked that it was very reliable and had a lot of features that made it easy to customize.
It was too difficult for me to learn when I am in such a high demand of editing- it took up way to much time of my editing process.
I absolutely love After Effects been using it since version 6.5, wow, almost 16 years ago and still is one of my favorite pieces of software to create motion graphics and animations.
That's why, after using it and staying subscribed for four years, I eventually cancelled my subscription and stopped using it.
I am excited to use after effects for my upcoming projects, just so I can have the best effects going for my projects.
Very tricky to use, can behave in confusing ways at times.
