Autograph - Free 2D/3D motion graphics app for all

Autograph is a free motion graphics and VFX or compositing application that combines 2D and 3D workflows, external data connections, and multi-format rendering in one environment. This makes it especially relevant to media, design, VFX, and motion students who want portfolio-quality tooling without an upfront license fee.

The real value for students comes from public free access rather than a student-only education plan. The app is positioned as free for all users, which directly addresses the questions students typically have: whether Autograph is worth learning and whether it is really free.

Students should still verify whether any related Maxon ecosystem tools are paid, understand the current free access scope, and confirm that the workflow matches the kinds of projects they want to build.
