Blender
Blender is an open source 3D content
creation suite that is available for most operating systems. The best thing
about Blender is that it’s free. If you’re new to 3D animation, this program
allows you to hop in and try it without the expense.
Maya
Maya is by far the gorilla of 3D
animation software. It is the program of choice for animators in many big
production houses. Many colleges teach courses in Maya (including one that I
took). There is a trial version to test it out. It’s not difficult to learn,
but from experience, it might take a good month of tutorials to get to where
you want to be when producing basic science animations. Most Untamed Science
animators, in-house and contracted, use this program.
Vue
If you’re looking to create mostly
landscapes, Vue is the program for you. It can produce photo-realistic
environments very quickly. Many of Avatar’s scenes were created in Vue.
