The new M1 is really, really interesting.It's a lot more powerful and is considered to be the industry standard in motion graphics.It also costs a lot more and isn't as compatible with Final Cut Pro as Motion is.Am I switching to After Effects from Motion? No, I'm not.Motion is excellent for my needs, so it's my tool of choice for motion graphics. I don't need all the features of After Effects, and I don't want to pay the higher price.I'm saying all of this even though I've only used After Effects for a few projects, and I'm far more experienced with Motion.My last experience using After Effects was several years ago and only on a handful of simple projects - I was learning the application.Compare that limited After Effects experience with my Apple Motion experience, where I regularly spend 40+ hours per week working in Motion, making Final Cut Pro themes, templates, and other projects.I periodically live in Motion for weeks on end. I'm very comfortable with it, and frankly I love it.(And I'm still shocked that it's only a $50 application, considering everything it can do.)The only way to purchase current versions of After Effects is through Adobe's Creative Cloud subscription offerings. Adobe Premiere Pro is available with any Creative Cloud subscription or a la carte for 20.99 per month. It includes the desktop (Mac or Windows) version as well as a mobile app counterpart.
