![]() The interface is slightly different to take advantage of the different operating systems and having a mouse/keyboard vs. Files can be transferred between them, no problem. They're separate apps (I have to code everything four times in different programming languages) and must be bought separately.Īre the iOS/Android versions and the Mac/Windows versions the same? ![]() ![]() If I buy it for one operating system can I use it on another without paying again? Is it a one time payment or a subscription? I'm just one person, and I have bills to pay. I'm just one person, and it's selling well enough to support me for the time I spend working on it. It's a specialized tool for one part of the process, and there are other better tools for the other parts. You can't make a whole movie just in this app. RoughAnimator is NOT a full compositing/video editing/audio editing suite. There's no keyframing/tweening, you have to draw every frame yourself. RoughAnimator will NOT do your animation for you. Everything is bitmap images, made out of pixels, so resolution is limited, and scaling/rotating will result in a loss of quality. You won't find fancy simulated paintbrushes in it for instance, just basic freehand drawing/coloring. RoughAnimator is NOT meant to be a design/illustration program. I've since used it for professional work and so can you! I always wanted an animation program like this, and no one else was making one, so I decided to try myself and developed RoughAnimator in my spare time. Jacob Kafka, a freelance animator in New York. (And it works on desktop computers too.) It can fit into a professional pipeline, to get work done without being stuck at your desk - or you can use it on its own just to doodle and practice your animating skills! As a professional animator myself I'm familiar with the usual complaints about animation software, so I've tried to design the app with those things in mind and make it as intuitive/functional as possible for the needs of animators. Portability and price! RoughAnimator is the most powerful hand drawn animation program in this price range, and the only one specifically designed to be easy to use on a touch-screen tablet without sacrificing professional-level features. If not, perhaps there are useful storyboard/animatic add-ons for Blender that could help? I’ve looked but frankly, and surprisingly, haven’t really found anything.What's the advantage of RoughAnimator over other animation software?.Are there features in Blender I’m overlooking to achieve, or somewhat resemble, the workflow I’m looking for?.So… for any Blender masters (or anybody willing to take a jab at this), some questions for discussion: (All the more, I’m finding I can’t use 2.8 because of horrible lag when playing back a scene in VSE, so it looks like if I want to use Blender, I’ll have to use 2.79.) ![]() But it’s quite cumbersome as VSE isn’t independent of a given scene. The closest workflow I’ve been able to come up with was using VSE to lay out scene files as I create them. Think Storyboard Pro (or even After Effects, Premiere Pro, or other NLE), but with Blender’s tools and viewport, which would be a dream. ![]() With Blender 2.8’s Grease Pencil animation system, I’ve been looking into using Blender as the tool for animatics at my studio, but I’m sadly coming to the conclusion that it won’t be able to do what I want.īasically, I want to be able to generate new “scenes” (2D/3D) very quickly while being able to easily edit any scene along a timeline on the fly, all within the same file. ![]()
