Toon Boom Studio 5 offers a new automatic lip chart generation feature direct from voice tracks, as well as automatic mapping of lip charts to lip drawings to provide more accurate syncing. There is also a text tool, and OpenGL anti-aliasing, for smooth and clean renders. As you would expect from a 2-D animation program, Toon Boom Studio 5 offers onion skinning, letting you see the frames before and after your current frame to assist with timing and movement. There is also a new multi-discipline project-based curriculum to help you get up to speed fast. The new version of Toon Boom Studio offers annotation layers for better communication with and feedback from clients and colleagues. The Toon Boom Studio interface is not intuitive, but once you go through one or two of the tutorials, the navigation makes more sense. There are numerous icons that offer up a range of controls, many of which only become active once your project has begun. It closely resembles Adobe Flash in many ways with its clean white palettes and array of panels. Upon initial launch, the Toon Boom Studio 5 interface seems simplistic. The Toon Boom Studio 5 interface looks simple at first, but offers a large amount of animation control. The advantage is that you get realistic movements with a hand-drawn, stylized look. Rotoscoping is the art of drawing over or around a photograph, or more commonly a video sequence. Over the years, rotoscoping has grown in popularity, and now with Toon Boom Studio 5, it’s easier than ever. Once imported, you can use those elements with motion paths to create movement and a complete 2-D animation. Moreover, you can draw, create, or import various cut out elements to build characters and store them in a personal library. Add sound, additional drawings, and even publish to the Web. Rather, with Toon Boom you can scan in drawings and use the program’s rich toolset to bring your drawn animations to life. You don’t have to worry about drawing on transparencies and shooting each image to make a film. If you’re not a traditional sketch artist, the new stop-motion feature is perfect for you.īut let’s say you’re into traditional animation.
From there, you can add unique visuals, and even audio.
Take your digital camera and photograph the minatures over time and bring them into Toon Boom to animate. Let’s say you’re more of a real world modeler and have created miniatures you’d like to bring to life. You can animate with motion paths as well as audio, and you can animate the camera in real time. You can paint art work and add it to your drawings, or even paint over your imported files. With this software, you can draw, scan, import, or capture artwork and video, then animate it in any number of ways. The cut-out feature is like grabbing various elements and compositing them together. Toon Boom Studio 5 however offers infinite possibilities with easy-to-use stop-motion, traditional paper, or digital animation, and even cut-out and rotoscoping. Many of us have tried our hand at stop-motion with in-camera techniques or perhaps clever editing.
So many artists today want to venture into the animation world but either don’t have the hand-drawing artistic capabilities or the time and resources to learn 3-D animation.
