I am newbie in CTA 3. How to make a second sequence, a scene with a different scene/background and a new actor/s after a previous scene with another actor is done? I can not find any tutorial which explains how to create a short animation with duration of few minutes and which contains different scenes and different actors? For example, "Animaker" software has option - Scenes icon (Scene 01, Scene 02, etc.). CTA 3 does not offer Scene icons, everything is on Timeline which is very complicated. Thanks in advance!

Hi... 

You should make each of your scenes a separate project. Then you can render all of the projects to video and edit them together with any video editing software.

Please see the Content Manager section HERE for help saving project files.

Wow! So CTA3 is useful only for create one scene. It is big flaw. It would be good if you include it (full video) in version 4. Which video editing software you recommend?

No it isn't a flaw at all. 

You can create unlimited scenes but for convenience and ease of use you will find it best if you adopt a real world movie making practise. When a movie is made it is shot in a series of separate scenes which are edited together later. This is the best way to work in CTA and the method which all serious film makers adopt.

Regarding video editors we don' t recommend any particular editor as everyone's needs are different. However you can see a guide HERE which may help.
