Programs

Is there a certain program almost everyone uses? or is there a wide range and you choose what you li ke the best.

I would say people are mostly using programs from Adobe Suite, depending what they work on.

Yes the adobe suit is very popular and nice to work with. You have a Programm for everything there

Adobe Suite, Da vinci Resolve, Cinema 4D, Blender, etc...

can recommend a good tool i use tho, PureRef, it's an amazing lil software "All your reference images in one place. Organize your inspiration and speed up your creative process with PureRef"
https://www.pureref.com/ it can change ur way of working on inspiration and research for design work and all kinds of things too.

(swear it sound like they paid me for this but nah i'm just in love with this software)
