thanks everyone,i appreciate the help very much, it certainly cleared up some road blocks i had…

>>Arson XL–yup, i’m definitely looking into Cinema 4D, after reading a lot of glowing feedback on this app. however, i use Poser for quick 3D modeling of human figures because speed-wise, its tops (like zaxwerks is for quick extruded text).

thanks again everybody!

Thanks Adam! But what you said means I can’t use the 3D object in AE? I was under the impression it would work akin to Zaxwerks Invigorator, where you could animate a full 3D object created by Zaxwerks then render it afterwards. Cinema 4D does not work this way?
