The next version of Blender focuses on Filmmaking

The most recent additions are targeting the film post area, compositing, matchmoving, color correction, more non-3D stuff. Looks like they're making a swiss army knife for filmmaking! 3D Modeling and rendering, post production for compositing, then grading... all they have to do is add editing (which they have in a rudimentary interface already) and they're it for no/micro budget filmmakers. Gone are the 2.5D > 3D compositors (AE and Motion), in with the truly 3D tool... and it's free :) and cross platform!

Oh wow. I downloaded blender ages ago and found the learning curve to be prohibitive.

The new UI looks like something I could actually wrap my brain around. It'll be cool to see where this goes :)
