Russiandolls Dildoset great tool for character posing and animation that also makes possible to create complex surroundings like landscapes with ease and offers a beautiful and realistic render engine that can keep up with much more expensive software. I think things like cloth and soft body dynamics will be available soon. For me personally I hope the possibilities for stylizing and abstract 3d will be extended - even it has a lot of them already. CL - You are a musician as well, can Carrara be used in music industry?
Dennis - Well – if you want to use it together with music, the main functionality you will need is a frequency analyzer that will allow you to take influence to specific parameters of your objects based on what the music does. Another way would be to integrate a beat detection so that you can cut your scenes based on the beat time of your rhythms. I did a music video for one of my own tracks with Carrara, but it was a lot of work to cut the scenes together synchronized to my beats within After Effects / Premiere. It would have been a lot easier if you would have a grid based on beat detection that music production tools like Ableton Live have.
