Chapter 1 Reflection and Wrap-up: Program Interfaces and User Reactions A computer program's interface can make or break the program's success. If the interface is difficult to navigate, it can frustrate users and drive them to find an alternate program. While other 3D modeling and animation programs may use catchy graphic icons and ribbon menus for operations, Blender tends to stick to basic text buttons and menus. 1. In terms of learning a new program, which type of layout do you feel may be easier to use? Explain your answer. 2. In terms of being quick and easy to use for the seasoned professional, which type of layout do you feel may be easier to use? Explain your answer. 3. Examine at least one other 3D animation program online (Maya, Lightwave, 3D Studio, etc.). By looking at website screenshots and descriptions, how does Blender compare with their interface? Name at least 3 things that appear similar and 3 things that appear different. 4. Compare Blender's features to the same program you selected in #3 by looking at feature lists on each program's website. How do they compare in features and price? Explain your answer.
