  1. Yea I looked into that one late last year I think; isnt it like a powerful all in one application ?
  2. Are you sure ? I think I was on twitter or something and saw someone say that video was something they were working on.
  3. I'm looking around for Adobe competitors with a similar suite of creative apps, obviously Affinity isn't there yet, but from what I see that they have: A graphic pixel app in Photo, I'm not sure if Design is suppose to be a vector app. I'm sure the longtime Affinity users can inform better about which apps are which. But in terms of this creative switching from a juggernaut like Adobe to Affinity, I would want to see A solid video app comparable to Premiere Pro, Power Director which CyberLink makes and other similar professional level video editors; second on my list would be an audio editor, recording, mixing, and mastering audio is part of my skill-set so if I hear sub par audio in my video I would take it to my audio editor and work on it then import it back or if Affinity in this case programs for the different apps to talk to each other and recognize when a shared asset is changed then the change is promptly reflected in the other app that the user has it open in. If a change is made to a picture in Photo(Name change please, that's too generic) then it's immediately reflected in the other app. But Thirdly as far as desired apps would be a vector app so those pixel graphics that Photo exports can be converted to shapes and paths. My close fourth is maybe a comparable Motion-Graphics app, but I might be getting a little greedy there. Oh and I don't want to leave out that one thing that bugs the bejeesus out of me with Adobe is when it comes to mobile apps Android users get treated like red-headed step children that always get kicked to the back of the line in terms of developing for mobile apps similar to the desktop apps. More apps and/or better developed apps for Android users would become a big factor is a decision to switch to Affinity or not. But in recap: A video app, an audio app, a vector app to go with the pixel app, animator maybe, but definitely priority to Android users would be things that would make me seriously think about moving away from Adobe jumping on Affinity's ship. For the other Adobe users in the forums(Even if it's not Adobe but some other creative company), if you haven't left Adobe and/or considering purchasing Affinity, what kinds of apps and other things would convince you to pull the trigger on Affinity ?
  4. As a long time Adobe user going as far back as CS5 up-to now with the current Adobe CC; I've learned almost all their suite of programs. But looking around for Adobe Alternatives cause I got a sticker shock when I recently renewed, what I see here is yes Affinity has a limited set of apps that appear to be focused on graphic design first. For me, the primary Apps I use is the video-editor Premiere, The graphic editor Photoshop, and third would probably be the audio editor- Audition. What would seem to immediately complement Affinity here is a Video Editor. My father is a web programmer and I have a limited profeciency in regards to building pages, sites, and scripting; so I definitely have an appreciation for being able to have a Dreamweaver type tool to make the job of web design easier. But I would expect Affinity to prioritize creating a video app to add to their collection. That or potentially to accompany Photo(I recommend changing that name by the way. A name with the word photo is going to be hard to get people to think Affinity rather than Adobe's Photoshop. Maybe something like "Pixel Design" or "Pixelator" get people to think Affinity rather than Adobe) a vector tool for those that need to create or redesign graphics and pictures that can be scaled up larger for print.
