I totally understand what you are saying, Greg, and I see that a lot with AE. I see one person having a more stable experience, others having a less stable experience. Another with a great experience, another with intense hatred. And on and on. On the whole, in my experience and with the majority o

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Well put Perry, exactly my thoughts! Speaking of Fusion: I had the pleasure of using the free version last week for 7 consecutive days in a a row, 10 hrs a day. It was blazingly fast (compared to AE anyway), did not crash once, and the look of the node tree was pleasing enough to not make

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Totally agree. This "news" sickened me and if true, could mean great things for Fusion and nothing but bad news for the rest. I've seen the usability and stability of After Effects (AE) decline sharply over the timeframe that AE has been a rental product. Updates cause problems instead of fi

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Affinity Photo is Mac only, so no threat to PS at all. If they went all platforms, than maybe they might make a little dent. Krita is starting to get really nice, expecially the 32 bit painting features are great. But no real threat either. And as long as they don't have 100% file compatibility

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Well Affinity Photo is definitely already there and its still in Beta. Pretty much for a fraction of the cost. Similarly for their Affinity Designer product. Krita is also catching up very quickly . Adobes issues start at the end of next year when the first of their 3 year deals becomes due. Mo

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

There is a chance good things arise from The Foundry being put to the market. Personally, I´m not a fan of the recent year´s trends to put all sorts of flashy sugar coating on a bundle of applications, force support subscription down the throat along with swallowing the deal or now even tryin

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Raffaele, the thing is nothing like Photoshop has risen yet, right? Little competition there unlike say, MAX. They certainly cemented their position with applications integration and the acquisition of Macromedia, which had some overlap with Fireworks and Freehand, even being web-oriented, in tune

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

AD owned and produced a lot of stuff over the years. The various acquisitions you are thinking of in the M&E group are a drop in the ocean that is their arch, viz, CAM/CAE budgets. Alias was bought for studio and the inlet in industrial CAM they missed at the time. Maya in and of itself is probably

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

If I remember correcty Autodesk, before the big buyout in recent yearsm had only Autocad and 3ds to carry on and make good money...when they start acquiring Alias and all the others they establish themself as the "company to go", simply because they were the owners. For me Adobe could possibly be

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

There must be another company named Adobe I'm not aware of... Adobe has had nothing but contempt for VFX for years, and people would actually get on board with this? If there is any truth to these incompetently written piece of news whatsoever, and that's pretty much 50/50 at best, be ready to re

Re: "The shadow over The Foundry"

Well in the end Adobe probably doesn't care too much about Modo. But Mari and Nuke fore sure is interesting for them. I guess if Autodesk could, they would buy them just because of Nuke ;) 2015-04-27 15:06 GMT+02:00 Toonafish : > Can't take it too seriously when I read this snippet about Modo: >
