Regarding the free CC... You are right. But the free version in combination with their 42 day demo will be a good way to test the C4D waters to see if it will indeed be worth buying the full version to add to our pipeline.
The plan would be to use the free version to get an understanding of how it works in our environment, then install the demo to see what we are missing. (Even though the demo does still have some limitations.) Good to hear that the C4D guys are passionate/willing to listen. I wonder if they give out temp licenses? ;) That way our evaluation won't be restricted by the limitations of the demo or the free CC version.

Just to chime in - I've met a lot of the C4D guys over the past few years and I have to say they are a really impressive, passionate bunch of guys that are investing heavily in their technology. Even if they don't have what you need today, it might be worth contacting them and asking about long-term plans and roadmap.

On the surface it seems like many of our mograph projects could benefit from the "free" C4D that comes with After Effects. For us, the complex jobs will still have to be done in XSI... and whatever we choose to use next.

I've made a First Impressions review a couple of years ago: http://edschiffer.com/?p=248 It's UI is the easiest it can be, but it is still very much mograph focused for me. -- www.edschiffer.com<http://www.edschiffer.com> -- www.muchi.tv<http://www.muchi.tv>
