| We have done work for companies that make editing software and we told them we were going to use another companies software to edit the piece and they have been fine with that.
We have also done work where we have been mandated that it had to be done using certain software, which we (mostly) stuck too.
It depends on which departments you are dealing with.

Not very productive to tell artists what tools they must use after hiring them based on past work. 2 cents. patrick siemer On Mar 6, 2013, at 3:20 PM, Chris Bobotis wrote: Michael the concept behind DS was excellent and in some ways it is still miles ahead of all others. In other ways... well you said a mouthful ;-)
Much of what was implemented at the core of DS was re-purposed in XSI and eventually made it's way to some of the Avid products.
Avid still has not figured out what to do with DS IMHO - too afraid to cannibalize the Composer franchise I guess - if they did it could still be a real contender.
But then again the original plan for AE was much grander at least that is how it was explained to me by one of the original members of the AE team. AE was but one component in the original plan.

Jim we worked on the original design, packaging, motion graphics etc. etc. for Softimage (now Avid) DS
We used Adobe products to create all of it.

That was my economical interpretation. She explained this Maffit genius projected film on to falling snow, and photographed it.
Sounds pretty "artsy fartsy" to me.
As for Brian Higgins' explanation about high end post houses... I get that. They use the tools they always use. I was just thinking that if I were running the show at Adobe, I'd prohibit their vendors from mentioning competitors' products in connection with the work they did for us. And I'd probably give preference in job awards to a house that used Adobe products.

Many years ago, when we were a linear post house, we cut a "very big
NLE company's" NAB videos on Sony...I always thought that funny.

In this month's Digital Video magazine. Article titled "Brickyard
Helps Animals Talk Business for Adobe"
"...color corrected the spot in Autodesk Lustre and composited ...
using Autodesk Flame."
I repeat, what?
Also, in the same issue, Editor C. Clapp waxes poetic on a artsy
fartsy video, Called Projector Snow, by one "Brian Maffit."
