Using Motion independently or in combination with some other app for 2D/3D animations?
Dear Motion community,
I have just asked a similar question but not entirely the same as this one, so here goes:
- Am I correct to assume that to create and render 2D or 3D characters, I should entirely 100% be using some external software like Blender that features more drawing tools like pen, pencil, brush strokes and animation tools compared to Motion?
- As Motion to my understanding, is more focused on creating motion graphics that 'adds' on top of film clips/footages like titles, effects like fire - and so the creation/drawing and animation tools available in Motion is really catered to producing such motion graphics and not those of what one expects to see from 2D or 3D animation films for example, where the animated characters could have much more movements. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
- Software like Blender could create and animate 2D and 3D characters, rendering it into a final movie format with audio if I'm not wrong - therefore, I shouldn't have the need for Motion in this example unless I'm using it for motion graphics that adds on top of footages as referenced in pointer 2. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
- Referencing to my question in subject, but of course, if there is any way that I can use a software like Blender and Motion together, please do enlighten me as I have not figured this one out yet. Thanks again :)
The point of these questions are just so that I know what tools to use in any given scenario as I've already purchased Motion and been using it for some 3 weeks now.
Thanks kind people.
