This is the opportunity for harmony to push back to the forefront of animation technology. Surely toon boom’s R&D budget can stretch to a copy of this software to see where harmony’s cut out workflow can be improved. However it lacks drawing tools, relying on other software to create the artwork. This would seem logical to solidify the pipeline with storyboard pro, and would give TVPaint a run for it’s money.Īnime studio 9.2 has point animation and smart bones (amongst many other features), both would be welcome in harmony to be sure.ĬelAction2D is the go to software for cut out animation, certainly in the UK where it’s the market leader for this style of animation. Perhaps harmony will be adding bitmap layers and tools to it’s next incarnation. I also assume you still cannot share files between animate pro 3 and harmony (this ability was removed with animate pro 2)


Unless you are using the 3d functionality (for which you really need a license of maya).
