No list of the best 3D animation software would be complete without Blender. Blender’s animation toolset features a character animation pose editor, forward/inverse kinematics, and sound synchronisation – all of which makes animating your next professional or hobby project that much easier.

What’s extra nice about Blender is that you can use it for more than simple animation: you can sculpt, model, render, and more. You can even use the Grease Pencil feature to work on 2D creations and the helpful Python API for scripting and customisation through app extensions.

• Limitations: As I’ve mentioned earlier, it can be a good fit for beginners so it comes up with limited functionality and can be trouble while working on complex items.
• Popularity: As per a survey by Stackflow, it is considered the 2nd highly used language by developers globally.
• Accessibility: If you’re looking for technology that can create applications in less time and can be accessible offline then HTML5 is for you.
• Compatibility: Although HTML is highly used among developers but still cannot be a perfect choice due to its compatibility issues with old browsers and also HTML5 support to build Native apps. This makes it issues with flexibility and with limited functionality with custom designing.

Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Inc. for Windows and macOS. It was originally created in 1988 by Thomas and John Knoll. Since then, the software has become the industry standard not only in raster graphics editing, but in digital art as a whole.
