Open Source Software: Blender
Open Source Software
A favorite of mine is Blender, a 3d animation software that can rival the big ones like Maya and 3dmax but it is free, and weighs in at only 8mb or so. Compare that to SoftImage XSI at about 600mb.... Community supported , its user interface is different then most windows programs but its very smooth and uses keyboard shortcuts . It also has extensive on line instruction to get started. Even just to play with, it is a pretty software.
Blender has produced various releases including the showcase Elephants Dream.
