You heard #Adobe. Deep down you knew this was coming. Now all your art are belong to them. Time to move on to better things...

Kreative Suite
* Krita is your new design/painting app
* Kdenlive will give you video-editing powers
* glaxnimate adds 2D vector animations to you videos
* digiKam organises your collection images

Also:

* Scribus - layout like a pro
* GIMP - need we say more
* Blender - ditto

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social happy to see glaxnimate officially promoted by KDE.

I have been searching for good alternatives to AE and Premiere for a while now. I have messed with DaVinci a few times, but always bounced off. Any suggestions. Bonus points if anyone can point me in the direction of a Lightroom alternative.

For video editing, Kdenlive is the best alternative I found so far, although it takes some time to get used to. For something AE related, check out Blender. It might be a bit overkill for most projects, but it is very powerful. As a lightroom alternative there's Darktable. All of the mentioned software also has the advantage of being free and open source.

I am super impressed by Blender, but there's not really a substitute for After Effects yet, open source or otherwise.

Have you tried Natron? This software still needs some serious love, but maybe you can appreciate its potential as tool for people used to AE.

[-] Hackworth@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Very interesting! I'll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social This post reads funnier with the implication that it's a threat from KDE.

@kde @kde@lemmy.kde.social @darktable don't forget #darktable for your raw photo editing needs!!

YouTube would be smart enough not to advertise Adobe creative cloud in the pre-roll ads of this video, right? Right???

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social well it appears as though #youtube has now become a "gated community" the #YT frontends are not working. It prompts a login to prove you're not a bot:(

Synfig Studio is a powerful tool for creating film-quality animation using vector and bitmap artwork.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Bro, even YOU guys are suggesting GIMP, meanwhile most people try to use Krita as an image editor cuz of the UI and other issues i can't fully understand.

Is like using a Lawnmower to cut wood.

Edit: I need to clarify that i'm saying that people are using the WRONG TOOL for the job, i'm not saying either of these programs suck.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Don't forget Darktable to fill-in for Lightroom!

[-] fell@ma.fellr.net 2 points 11 months ago

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Thank you. I was actually just looking for a 2D vector animation program.
