MotionArtist For Mac

Nowadays, comic artists have a diverse array of tools at their disposal, enabling them to design and showcase interactive stories that can be shared on various media platforms. For beginners, however, things are still quite difficult, as advanced graphic design apps tend to have a rather steep learning curve.

MotionArtist is a powerful application intended to be accessible to experts and novices alike, as adding, animating and exporting content is done through simple, intuitive operations. It allows you to create comics, presentations or animated slide shows that can be exported to multiple formats.

While you can use MotionArtist to create any type of content, its features are primarily geared towards the production of interactive, panel-based comics and graphic novels. You can scan hand-drawn comics or import digital images, videos and audio clips to use in your projects.

The next step is, of course, to arrange them into panels and add animations. The panels can have pretty much any shape and can be resized, duplicated, aligned or rotated easily. Most tasks are performed with simple drag and drop actions, so the available documentation, which is quite extensive, might not even be necessary.

MotionArtist is best suited for motion comic design, but it has everything you need to create high-quality animated presentations for businesses or slideshows that showcase your personal photos in a new and exciting fashion.

You will be working with the artboard, where all your imported content is arranged and the virtual camera is positioned, as well as the timeline, which displays the contents of one scene at a time.

MotionArtist can upload your finished project directly to Facebook or YouTube, as well as to your personal channel on MotionArtist.tv.

Moreover, the comics can be exported to standard video files or saved to HTML5 and integrated into a web page.

In conclusion, MotionArtist is a powerful, intuitive application that caters mostly to comic artists and can be used to create high-quality animated graphic novels or presentations.
