Can someone recommend animation software
I'm looking for some software to create some basic animation in my Mac that could meet at least the following requirements:
a) Create 2D animation (3D is a plus) where you don't need to draw frame by frame.
b) Have good documentation/support since I'm starting on this
c) Can export to QuickTime or iMovie since I would eventually use it with iMovie to create longer movies or to mix some footage with the animation.
d) If possible, be capable of importing (perhaps as vectors) drawings we have in paper (we have a scanner and can save in many different graphic formats).
e) Don't be extremely expensive.
f) Preferable have a trial version so I can see if it works for me.
I would appreciate any recommendations.
Regards,
