No shareware comes to mind. I use Adobe Aftereffects.
I think the "standard version" is under $1000, and the
"Pro Bundle" is over $1000. I can't recall the price
I bought it a very long time ago, but just paid $200
for the upgrade. Combustion is also popular, and
there are others much more expensive.
If you are a student, you can get Aftereffects much
cheaper. There are also less expensive (or free)
little programs that do specific effects (morphing
for example). Most of what can be done in a
compositing program like AE can also be done
in a 3D program, but it is harder to set up.
