Exciting News for Animators!
« on: June 06, 2018, 03:56:10 am »
I came across some very exciting news for animators, and I figured that there are probably a few folks here whom could benefit from word finding its way to the Feral Heart forums. Toonz software has recently decided to make their 2D animation software free to download and open source for anyone to use. Toonz has been utilized (whether in part or by a great deal) in film productions for Studio Ghibli, Steven Universe, Futurama, Balto, along with others. I think it's looking to be a permanent thing, but I'm still looking into the news, myself. I have no idea how many people here are interested in animation, but perhaps this could fall into your hands just at the right time.

If you want to download it and view the news post, look here!

What do you guys think about their decision to release their content freely to the public? If you have dabbled in art or animation, would this affect you in any way, personally? I'd love to hear your thoughts. c:

Huh... might be handy to people who can master it.  Probably more powerful than the demo-video shows it to be, in the hands of people with great visualization ability.   I still draw frames one at a time like a 19th century person.

The closest concept in english would be 'rustic'
They might have an old thing, one example is a favourite bowl or dish, it's broken, pieces are missing, why fix it?  With gold and pieces from other dishes?
