Outstanding motion graphics package. Even amateurs such as myself can produce
good quality motion graphics in 3D.
Manipulating motion graphics on screen is a breeze. Complex animations,
particle effects, text manipulation are all simple and can all operate in a 3D
environment. Combining multiple animated parameter settings provides all the
flexibility one could hope for.
The motion tracking is also impressive and works very well if good reference
points are selected.
In addition to pure motion graphics Motion also provides stabilisation and
slow motion processing, two processes essential to producing professional
video.
Motion's optical flow technology produces slow motion inter-framing that is
nothing short of astonishing.
Comparing Motion to After Effects is wrong. This is like comparing
Illustrator to photoshop, they're designed to do completely different jobs.
Motion is a motion graphics tool, not an effects tool. For this you need to
compare Apple's Shake (their effects and compositing tool) to After Effects.
