Nice work Teddy, what did you use for the syrup sim?

It seems like Linux is picking up a little "steam" lately since adding some gaming support. I hope that translates to more friendly admin builds that can be used for your everyday pro like us without an IT department to rely on.

Hiero is Linux and Mac only... always wanted to try it out though

Nuke and Fusion (and Autodesk Composite) are great at many things; but I still find I use AE for finishing. However for open EXR handling and stacking layers and merging hundreds of effects nodes, and building your own effects, AE has nothing on node-based compositing. But I see AE as the mastering suite to to these program's raw outputs. Doing any kind of frame specific "editing" and effects timing (especially to music or VO) is firmly in the AE domain.

Here's a quick clip I did the other day using both Nuke and AE

No,

AFAIK sucks for that, but I've been mostly doing VFX for a while now.

Do you see Nuke as a good Mograph tool?  I've heard/seen great things done by Fusion on the Mograph side, but have never touched it myself…

More likely Nuke. Lion will virtualize. Does that help installing on non-Apple hardware?

The main thing stopping me from buying a PC is that it only runs Windows and I'm not ready to Hackintosh yet.

It will also run Linux.  Devil's advocate hat on here…I wonder if the lack of MacPros on the market will entice Adobe to create a Linux version, but I suppose it is highly unlikely
Might be time to learn Fusion
