You're also going to fall for these courses!

  • Because...
    Photoshop gives you total power and flexibility to create assets you can animate in AE. Flash takes your animation skills to the web. Naturally, CS5 links all your assets together, keeping layers and filters intact across the workflow.

    Or, thinking outside the box..

    Because...
    Cinema 4D is a true 3D package (the 4th D is time!) and your 3D renders out will enrich your motion graphic design tool arsenal massively.
