To add to that – I can't tell you how appreciative we are of folks taking the time to do this work. It's exactly that real-world production and putting the tool through the ringer that makes sure we can put out not just a reliable release, but that features work (or are corrected) in the best possible way. Frankly – we couldn't do it without the fantastic folks on our beta. To echo Jack – it is a serious commitment. The return – your participation moulds Ae to your vision. Obviously we are the filter, and try to take as many things into account as possible, from many beta testers. That said though – it's often the passion, dedication and creativity of our beta testers that frankly make Ae what it is. Their is as much sweat, love, frustration (aka passion) and satisfaction of our beta testers in Ae as there is from the folks who build it. On behalf of all of us at the Plabt – thanks Jack. And Christian, And Stu, and Chris, and Trish, And Rob, and Carey, and Mark, and Angie, and … and … and … ALL. Steve F Adobe Systems Inc.

And isn't that where things usually show their weakness, rather than in the hands of engineers but in the hands of users when you are creating giant map layers, adding a ton of third party filters. By the way this intro was created in two days because of a tight deadline. That doesn't count the time it took me to create the original map, but for all animation done in AE. If you want to get your hands on this software earlier than others I would suggest you join the AE beta team. Quite frankly I've turned it down in the past because of work commitments. Beta testing is not an easy thing, if you commit to it, as it can be many, many hours of testing and submitting results, hours worked far beyond the value of receiving complimentary software. I think its a serious commitment and you have to decide if its something you really want to do. If I commit then I try and do the best job I can.
