Video Animation

Sandoval1

Hello!
I wanted to do a video of my project, with a camera that moves with a nice flow naturally, and i want to open the roofs to show some specific objets , but i will do that editing in after effets. For now i want to ask :What's the best free and easy plug-ins to make a nice video?

Thanks!

Is it possible to do a video with the project rendered in v-ray? I watched an animation of this plugin in youtube, but the model isn't rendered.

Thea Render is currently supported by Animator.

Sorry i don't know what Thea Render is? So i'm assuming i can't render it in v-ray?

Animator does not work with V-Ray. It does work with Twilight Pro, Thea, and Ambient Occlusion (all of which are rendering engines).

So is any of these rendering engines free? And if they aren't free is there any free animation plugin that's compatible with v-ray?

Blender is free and can make any animation and render
Not sure that is an easy prog...when you have never use it!
If really you want pay and use Vray there is Vray for Blender
But don't know how cost the Vray for Blender when you have yet a normal Vray version

I don't have money to buy v.ray for blender.... is there any affordable animation plugin in sketchup that is compatible with v-ray?
