Ok , I was just wondering what are the programs used to make GC movies like in Final Fantasy and the Matrix Reloaded?
Some of the software used includes
Alias|Wavefront Maya (free for personal use);
Blender, which is just plain free;
LightWave 3D, which
Dale Myers just used to re-create the Kennedy assassination for
ABC News (and earlier to develop and model the
animated M&Ms); and
CinePaint (open-source and formerly
FilmGIMP), used to blend it all with live action. There are others, of course.
Companies like
Pixar and
Weta Digital use a lot of software developed in-house, mixed with commercial and free.
