  • Apple Commercials: Letters and Words all flying over grey-black background

    Apple’s been using flying letters all other their commercials (for Final Cut Studio for instance). You know, words flying left to right, over a greyish-blackish background. I cant find out if they used Livetype or Motion… Does anyone have a clue?

    Most likely After Effects or Combustion or another application capable of 3D.

    You don’t think that they used there own software to do it? i.e. Shake?

    You… you dont mean to say Apple is promoting an application suite that can do everything… using another application that is its competition????? (OK, After Effects and Combustion dont compete with Motion, but I mean, come on, couldnt they have used something in Motion or Livetype?…)

    Probably more like Shake if they used their own apps.
