Some additional tools:
Other than the programmes that we are learning through the
module like Photoshop, premiere pro and after effects, these are a few that can
be used too: (Yes, they are all free!!!!)
1.
ArtRage2:
It’s is used for matte painting and creating the movie poster. This is a
simple and artistic painting programme. It’s extremely useful. If you need any
kind of digital painting with traditional artistic materials, this is your
first choice. The free version is a little limited than the full version. But
the full version is surprisingly inexpensive.
2.
DAZ Studio and Bryce 5.5: These are great if you
want a basic 3D animation.
3.
GIMP: It’s a paint programme very similar to
Adobe Photoshop. It’s great but not to the level of Photoshop. So if you do not
have Adobe Photoshop 4 or later, this programme can be a useful tool.
4.
Audacity: This is useful for working with audio
and converting audio to OGG files. It’s a bit clumsy but does the job.
