If your looking for something free: deled lite( can't be used commercially) or blender( A little more advanced, My personal favorite).
If you are on a low budget: Deled pro(75) or milkshape($40).
If you are on a high budget: Maya (about $4000) 3ds max (about $4000).

CGI animation already gives off a 3D look. 3D animation wouldn't be successful without traditional animation.
You can learn how to use a free 3D animation program like Blender. A simple intro with just text and a background should be fairly easy to create.
Both are bachelor degrees but 3D animation degree is specialization in 3D Character animation, 3D rendering, creating 3D models etc.
stiks is a great program for that
Probably some sort of 3d animation software like 3d studio max or Maya
3d rad is a good program to make 3d agme
You should not buy a animation program if you do not need too. You can find perfectly good animation software right online, such as blender.org. Blender is a free 3d animation prgram which can offer reasonably high graphics and can make movies, games, and a bunch of other things to. try googling blender.org
A good free animation program is 'sketchstar' on Miniclip, but if you want even more tools you have to become a member. Blender is also good.
