Chances are that if you visit ComicsOnline, you do so because you are a fan of comic books. How good are comic books? The answer is super-mega-awesome-good! But what can make comic books even better? How about sound effects, music and motion?
If this sounds like your idea of a dream come true, then you will be very interested in MotionArtist by Smith Micro Software.
After a tremendously successful public beta, the release version of MotionArtist enables users to add motion to their comics, create interactive HTML5 presentations and make animated photo shows. The highly versatile MotionArtist appeals to a wide range of users, from graphic novelists and comic creators to web developers and photographers, users of all skill levels are able to utilize cutting-edge tools to enhance and share their artistic creations.
“With over 50,000 beta downloads, MotionArtist has proven to be an exceptional tool for adding motion and effects in digital comics, HTML5 presentations and other creative endeavors,” said Steve Yatson, VP, Operations of Productivity & Graphics business unit at Smith Micro. “Our official launch of MotionArtist expands on the features and functionality of the product, allowing artists as well as novice users to take their projects and creations to new heights and easily share their work. Whether you want to bring animation and interactivity to a graphic novel, add motion to a boring power point or quickly create and share a photo presentation, MotionArtist lets you create moving presentations to better engage and interact with audiences through a rich visual and audio experience.”
The program allows you to do all sorts of sweet things like create interactive presentations with comic book style panels, use dynamic text in thought bubbles or dialogue boxes, add motion to your comics and photo slideshows through automated object placement and camera movement, and way more.
