Hey Folks,
I went to my Orlando, Florida Apple Store this morning and took in the Motion Demo / Class.
Ya know, it's pretty much a wash when you know more about a new product than the Demo dude (and I haven't even touched it yet). This guy was not from Apple...he was from a local "training" facility. All my questions seemed to throw him back.
He was totally unprepared for the Demo with no Filters or Emitters installed on the machine he was using. He stumbled on my "Time Remapping" question then said "I don't think you can do that in here". I pretty much lost interest in anything he had to say after that.
Oh yeah, he ALSO said that the only G4's to run Motion was the MIRROR-DOOR G4's. He answered my last question about ease in / ease out motion with "...hey, I've only been on this thing for a week".
The program looks to be a great addition to After Effects, but by no means is it a replacement. I look forward to the updates / upgrades, though!
