I have more digital fiction and multimedia authoring classes coming up so I’ve been playing some more with xtranormal – it seems one of the simplest 3D storytelling / video making tools around – the most effect for the least effort! The choices are limited for free accounts, and I’m not sure how much modding is possible, but for a simple introduction to 3D multimedia storytelling, film techniques, and so on, I’d definitely recommend this as a nice easy starting point.
