[missa]

Thanks all, I am specifically looking for "a bridge" between bare skin (before) and the practical effect (after). For the most part, we are talking about 1-10 second shots of hair growth, mostly close up. If you are familiar with my TF work to date, those shots are the same types I would be starting with. I have used the "hair" effect on AE up until this point but it is lacking (or I am lacking understanding..) depth and natural movement. I am looking for something with more impact. I know AE allows importation of CINEMA 4D (and the demos looked promising) but I am assuming this is prohibitively expensive as a cursory search of their site provided no pricing.
