Blender

Blender models, animates, simulates, renders, composites and cuts video, and the Blender Foundation gives all of it away under the GPL with no tier above it. For motion graphics it is the free answer to a monthly subscription, and the ceiling is the artist rather than the licence. The learning curve is what it costs instead, and that is a real price.

There is no price. Blender is free and open source under the GPL for any use, including commercial work, and the Blender Foundation funds development mainly through donations and a development fund that companies pay into. Nothing is held back for a paid tier, because there is no paid tier. The Blender Studio subscription sold on the same site buys training and production files rather than software.

Anybody doing 3D or motion graphics who would rather put the subscription money into a better computer. It suits people who learn from documentation and tutorials, because there is a great deal to learn. Somebody who needs an animated logo by this afternoon should buy a template tool instead.
