Training resources for Motion 3

Question

It seems the availability of tutorials for Motion 3 are taking quite a while to make an appearance.
Anyone know of any good books, training DVD's or tutorials for Motion 3?
I have already viewed the two tutorials from a previous thread from dvcreators.

Answer 1

I know what you mean.
Here's a story about the importance of having training materials available. Back in the mid 90s there weren't a lot of choices for creating 3D on the Macintosh. As I recall there was something like 3 programs available for the Mac. So I purchased a program called Strata Studio Pro. Which seemed to be the most popular at the time. Later I discovered there were virtually NO training materials available. There was ONE book and a magazine that Strata put out. And that was it. Nothing else.
Seeing how I couldn't learn it in my spare time, I just gave up on that program and purchased Lightwave instead. Lightwave was available on the PC for years before it got ported over to the Mac. So there were plenty of books available. Since then Strata just sorta' faded away. Nobody talks about it. Nobody uses it. You don't see it advertised anywhere. And although they're still in business, at one time they could've dominated the Mac market, instead they went nowhere.
So I hope Apple can see the importance of having training materials available and does everything they can to promote Motion's use. Because I'd hate to have purchased another Strata Studio Pro.
