It’s back !!!

This is so cool

This works

The app works I tried on both of my devices and it’s pretty well

Timeline not working at all

I have iPad Pro,I bought this app, but the timeline does not work at all! Please fix it

Great and fun app! Thanks 😊

I just want to say thanks for developing such a fun app. It did take me a minute to figure out how to adjust the timeline for the animation rigging, but I figured it out eventually. I'm glad it still works on the most up-to-date version of ios.

Would be amazing if....

The timeline was fixed. If export included transparent .png export. Really a cool app. Does things other apps can’t match. Really worth fixing.... please dive back in and fix, or sell to someone who will. Not an app to give up on.

FAQ

What can I animate with Plastic Animation Studio?

You can animate both photos and drawings. The app allows you to load an image, build a skeleton structure on it, and then animate that structure to deform the image, bringing it to life.

Do I need drawing experience to use this app?

No, drawing experience is not necessary. The app's innovative technology lets you create animations by building a skeleton and deforming it, rather than drawing each pose individually.

What are the in-app purchases?

In-app purchases include features to control the speed of your animation, add a soundtrack to your creations, and share your animations directly to platforms like Facebook and YouTube, or send them via email.

How does the skeleton system work for animation?

You build a skeleton structure on your image, and then by moving the skeleton nodes, you can create stretching and bending deformations of the image. You can also modify the stacking order of nodes to fine-tune overlapping sections.

What kind of images can I load?

You can load images from the app's built-in Plastic Library, your device's Photo Library, or directly from your iPad Camera. The Edit Image tools allow you to mask and flip images to isolate the subject you want to animate.
