  • Loose change and new plugin offerings…What would you do??

    Posted by Michael Munkittrick on May 31, 2006 at 9:06 pm

    So, I’m basically a glorified freelancer at this point as I sold my interest in the studio that I helped create, and since I’m tinkering around I thought that now would be a good time to invest in some new tools for After Effects.

    Of the hundreds of possible tools, what are your favorites, whay are the most overlooked (or undervalued) and what would your ultimate toolset include?

    I am a huge fan of the Trapcode tools and since Peter is alwayss around they are always a top choice, and I love the DigiEffects stuff too…it’s just not as useful for my specific work, but what would you select if you had a LOT of free time?

    Search in the COW Archives for “favorite plug-in”. Trapcode Particular was one of the favorites. Mine is probably Magic Bullet Suite 2.0. Very expensive thought.

    really, anything Trapcode. Then buy Maya or c4D. I find I can replicate most of what other 3rd party plugins are trying to create & AE already come with so many these days.

    Thanks guys, but I appear to have posted this in the wrong forum. I am one of the hosts of the Magic Bullet Suite plugins at the COW and I love it, and I’ve owned the Trapcode suite for about two years now with the exception of the Echospace and one, maybe two others that I just don’t use all that much. And on a side note, I just bought CD4 last month with the advanced render plugin. I was debating the Maxwell Render or Final Render 2 suite for some of my higher-end work, but I’m still getting my footing after being out of 3D for so long.

    Thanks again.
