Toon Boom Animate Pro - High-Performance Professional Animation Software. It's most versatile and powerful animation software for independent professional animators. It can be used to create all styles of animation, traditional, Flash-style, cut-out or paperless. From start to finish, Animate Pro enables you to draw digitally, scan paper drawings, colour, animate, synchronize sound; perform advanced compositing using 3D camera and node-based effects; and render your projects in the leading output formats. It offers award-winning state-of-the-art content creation, animation and compositing toolset for any style of animation, all within a single desktop application.

Toon Boom Animate Pro combines state-of-the-art vector technology, real-time animation tools and nodal compositing to simplify the creation of complex effects. With its easy-to-use interface, non-destructive and resolution independent workflow, featuring a new and unique 3D space environment Animate Pro delivers incredible power at an economical price.
- Artist Inside: Toon Boom Animate Pro is the only software capable of combining the benefits of vector animation with textured pixmap, preserving artistic details while creating unique organic styles. Developed for animators by animators, Animate Pro is designed to help you achieve the look and feel you are looking for and unleash the endless stylistic possibilities not available in any other technology.
- Smart Puppet: Toon Boom Animate Pro brings together the most advanced feature set available for Flash-style and cut-out animation in the market. This feature set is embedded in a flexible environment including; vector, pixmap, symbols, pegs, morphing, hierarchy-based rigging, timeline view, node view, 3D space, forward and inverse kinematics as well as advanced lip-sync to name just a few.
- Colour Tune: Toon Boom Animate Pro shines when it comes to colouring and creating animation with a unique look and feel. Animate Pro's Smart Colour ID system, palette management, drawing and painting tools using vector, texture and gradient, translate into significant time-savings. At any point, changing character colours and fine-tuning colour ambiance is faster than pouring a cup of coffee!
- True Space: Toon Boom Animate Pro comes with a powerful camera tool that enables you to move your 2D objects in a full 3D environment. Enjoy the beauty of the built-in multiplane camera as you effortlessly set up your action in real-time while sitting comfortably in the director’s chair.
- True Vision: Toon Boom Animate Pro goes even further by offering a camera with full 3D rotation. Build a multiplane stage with different depths, which automatically produces a real perspective effect when you move the camera. The ability to create breathtaking cinematographic quality scenery is right at your fingertips.
- 3D Stereoscopic: Combined with true vision, Toon Boom Animate Pro is the only application that enables you to have left and right cameras set from different points of view to achieve 3D stereoscopic results, all within the same package. Flying through your scene adjusting speed in real-time makes you want to dive in your own animated world and enjoy the ride.
- Immediate FX: Being able to apply stunning special effects within the same animation package is priceless. Imagine the time savings you can have by selecting from over tens of special effects, applying them using powerful nodal compositing and previewing your final animation, without having to use another package. Discover untapped creative ground and make all your animation projects look like masterpieces.
