Now that I have had time to learn more about the whole process I am taking the steps to upgrade everything to at least the next version of Pro when it is released. I don’t have the money to jump into Harmony and it would also require me to buy a new computer. My system does not meet the minimum requirements but I was able to run the PLE’s. I just felt like the tools and capability of Animate Pro would suit my interests better. It was the sweet spot/best buy for me but I would not have realized it had I not taken the path I described. I purchased the prior version of Studio (7) and in my research to learn about it I decided to crossgrade to Animate Pro during a summer sale. I am just a beginner trying to learn everything I can only having started in June of 2014. Many people use Storyboard and additional software for the animation.Īs for the best buy, it depends on what you want to do and your hardware. It does do what is called an “animatic” which is a short animated sequence mainly to illustrate something better communicated in motion to be refined and recreated later in a film using other software. You work up a series of still drawings depicting the story arc. It is a program used for planning out animation. Storyboard Pro is not an animation program. Some things just cannot be set up using layers that can be done with nodes. More can be done with node based effects because there is a degree of limitation in a layer style approach. Animate Pro and Harmony have node based effects. Studio and Animate have layer based effects.
As you move up the tools and features are more refined, there are more of them, the tools also make things easier even though there are more of them and they have greater depth/capability and the results can be superior because of it. They all have drawing tools that work well with a tablet. Studio, Animate, Animate Pro and Harmony all allow you to do frame-by-frame and cutout puppet style character rigging animation.
