Does anyone know of an cheap alternative to After Effects, I have used the 30 day trail and liked it but i simply can't afford or earn enough(student) to spend £750-900 on the software/license. So does anyone here know of any other products that to do the same but are at the price your average joe on minimum wage(UK) can afford i.e £150-250, maybe 350 tops?????

Dunno about paid software but here's some free ones you can try out. You've got nothing to lose by trying them anyway, except time.

Doesn't Adobe offer student discounts? ::after-checking:: Yeah, here.

It looks like you can get the non-student version with a student discount (which is strange) for £466.48, or you can get it with a student license (you can't legally sell anything you make with it, according to them) as part of the production premium suite for £279.65.
