This web application is made available free of charge, as a courtesy, to those who wish to learn about animation by creating animated "movies". It attempts to simulate the look and feel of working at a physical animation desk used by traditional 2-dimensional professional animators.
User Interface - The "Desk"
A traditional animation desk has a work surface with a lightbox and peg bars used to align sheets of animation paper. Here, the peg bars and the outer ring of the lightbox are used to display information and buttons. The top peg bar displays information and current status. The buttons on the right (or top)of the lightbox open menus for various functions. The bottom peg bar contains transport buttons for navigating among frames of the movie, and starting/stopping play. For a quick-start introduction to using the desk, load the built-in demo movie by clicking the red "Movie" icon button, and then clicking the "Open Demo" button.
There are many sources of information regarding traditional animation and it is suggested that you consult those to learn about specific techniques. This application is currently in active development and subject to change in terms of user interface and features. Documentation other than this file is not available. See our introduction tutorial video on YouTube . The application is best learned by jumping in and creating a simple, short animation.
