John Dickinson of Motionworks recently tweeted about not having seen much buzz about the new physics engine plugin for After Effects called Newton. We've been wondering the same thing. What's going on? Are you daunted by Newton? Or do you feel you'd get better results from your 3D application? Leave a comment and let us know.
Have you experimented with Newton yourself? Let us see what you've done by posting your links in the comments. In the mean time, here's a few of the scant resources and inspirations that have popped up. First up are a couple of experiments from Mike Afford.
