3D Filmmaking Software Muvizu

Digimania's 3d production suit Muvizu is the latest in easy-to-use filmmaking software that targets artists, businesses, and educators unfamiliar with the world of 3d animation/VFX. Muvizu helps users create their films by providing a FREE streamlined software package with endless libraries of customizable assets such as characters, environments and animation performance libraries. Under the hood Muvizu is powered by Epic's Unreal Engine 3 which supports the effects, physics, real-time lighting and much more.

The software is free to download from the Muvizu website. Also checkout the FAQ page for more specific information about video watermarks, final rendering prices, file sizes and resolution.

I have my own opinions about this software specifically about the animation elements but I will save those thoughts for another post!
