    Yeah, this looks pretty good, and the price is right. I downloaded the trial and so far so good.

    Update: The software is pretty capable, and the results can be brought into Vegas with a transparent background as a .png still sequence, and put right on the timeline.

    Vegas has 3D track motion, but cannot extrude anything, so if you bring in an animated extrusion, Vegas can give it more wings.

    As a movie titler, I don't know. But if you wanted to make your own animated "bug" this would be good.

    I liked how the motion can be fit to a path and made to bounce.

    To create the rotating logo, maybe 10 minutes. then I took it into Vegas to add the rest. I was using media I already have though. I have a lot of stock footage that I shot myself.

    That video was from a GoPro Hero HD mounted to my car.

    I've been using this trial for a week, and it's pretty robust for $39.

    I haven't found anything else that compares, and the free Google one sucks. Blender is free, but the learning curve is WAY too steep. I'm going to go ahead and purchase this software.

    I call 'em as I see 'em. This is the first software posted here that I like.

    The videos above are lame, and the presets are lame, so just ignore that stuff and try to think outside the box. If you use vector graphic software like CorelDraw, you can export any wireframe or trace as an SVG and the software opens it right up.

    You can bring in your own textures, photos, etc. in PNG format and it maintains the transparent alpha channel.

    Multiple objects can be created on the same screen and grouped, or animated separately.

    You can export your animation to a PNG image sequence, and that will preserve the transparent channel too. I use Vegas pro, and it brings in the image sequence as a single video file. Works well, very smooth.

    Forget about the cheesy backgrounds in the software too, and it's still worth the price due to the versatility of importing SVG, animating, then rendering out to your NLE.

    There are a great many ways to animate using preset paths and motions, also you can keyframe. The lighting is easily adjusted too. It's all WYSIWYG, not a bunch of numbers and graph lines.

    The "7's" in the video above are not text, they are traces I did in CorelDraw, lifted from a photograph of a sign. I'm using them in another project that needs some motion graphics. 3D text animation is old school, nothing new, but it seems to be getting popular again.
