* The New Free Transform tool enables users to apply any combinations of scaling, rotation, skewing to animate faster
* Users can also add text for effective communication in web presentations, comic strips and more
* Automated lip sync tools allow fast sound track synchronization
* Improved sound scrubbing enables accurate adjustments to the lip synchronization
* Users can animate with key frames and use interpolation to create animation faster
* The library enables users to save drawings, animation cycles and motions for reuse
* The time line makes it easy to organize layers, set the timing and attach motion paths to elements
* Cell-swapping and templates add even more speed to cartoon creation
* Users can easily create dollys, trucks, zooms, and other eye-catching camera moves, with the 3D space and camera
Toon Boom Studio V3 brings significant improvements to animation keyframing, asset reuse and lip synchronization — empowering artists to make better animations. In addition, this latest release offers a simplified user interface with Drawing and Sceneplanning modes unified into one single mode.
