Description

Synfig Studio is a free and open-source software for 2D animation, crafted to serve as a robust solution for producing film-quality animations through vector and bitmap graphics. By eliminating the necessity for frame-by-frame animation, it enables the creation of superior 2D animations with fewer resources and personnel. You have the ability to morph any vector shape into another seamlessly! Synfig equips you with advanced tools that provide comprehensive control over your vector images. Simply define the key positions, and the software will automatically generate the in-between frames. With over 50 different layers available, Synfig allows for the creation of illustrations and animations with varying levels of complexity. You can select from an array of layer types, including geometry, gradients, filters, distortions, transformations, and fractals, among others. Additionally, its fully-featured bone system facilitates the creation of cutout animations using bitmap images while also allowing for the manipulation of vector artwork, making it an invaluable tool for animators of all skill levels.
