Hey guys/girls,
I'm pretty good when it comes to working programs with a creative eye, but know next to nothing about hardware... Also I'm transitioning from an Apple mindset. I'd really appreciate any help/direction you'd like to provide!
I say that I'm semi-pro as to clarify that I'm not currently working in industry, but I am a digital artist who gets occasional commissions.
Programs I work with:
Adobe: Illustrator, Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects, Premier Pro, Fuse
Autodesk: Maya, Mudbox, Meshmixer
Game design - Unity
Music production/sound design - Audacity or Reaper [I'm used to GarageBand, and don't know which DAW to move to]
Most demanding programs [I assume] are:
1] Unity - Game Design
2] Maya - 3D Animation
3] After Effects - 2.5D Animation/Video Editing/Effects
4] Premier Pro - Video Editing
5] Photoshop - Photo Editing
I know at this price range I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel for my needs, so I hope in time I can upgrade parts!
Side note: I have 4k monitors, speakers, keyboards, mice, etc. already. Oh and I'll be interfacing with a Surface Pro 4 and Galaxy S7 for mobile [lighter] usage... Don't know if that helps to know.
Thanks for any help you're able to provide!
All the best,
Steven
