Well, if you're using software to animate for you, that wouldn't make you an animator, would it?

Do you know anything about tracking?!:
Tracking does not animate it for you it just creates points of reference and matches them to a ref model
As for using other 3d programs- i don't think that there is anything wrong w/ that.
Just because FIRST gives you a EDU license for 3DS Max doesn't mean that you have to use it for EVERYTHING. Different Programs have different benefits.
3ds Max= Low Res Modeling and game design
Maya= Everything but Lightining Fast renderer and a Versitile Compostiter
So according to you, using Premiere to Add captions or titles would be cheating?
