How To Create Animation On A Mac Or PC

I think the article didn’t mention the best (3D) animation package ever…. Blender 3D. I’ve been using this software for the last 9 years, and yes…. it’s free. FREE! Many 2D / 3D / cartoon style animations have been made using this software. Elephants Dream and Big Buck Bunny are two HUGE projects that were made on Blender 3D. And the best part? It’s available on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux as well as any other OS you can think of! (http://www.blender.org). The downside? It’s got a steeper learning curve than other software. But you’re not going to get results without putting in the effort!
