Nowhere do you see the typical Flash look creeping in. There hasn't been a "typical Flash look" for years. Check out Adam Phillips or Bernard Derriman if you want proof of that. Also, it's worth remembering there's no dialogue in this film. Everything is communicated through mime. But he ...

This is a question that should be sent to Smith Micro directly.

Asking it publicly like this is really just trying to spread fear, uncertainty and doubt.

Not cool.

You folks aren't saying this cannot be done, are you? It's not that it CANNOT be done, but the question is whether it would be worth the effort to do it in AS compared to just drawing it. You have deliberately picked very full traditional animation as your example. AS is best at semi-full animation...

I would *guess* it's Marketing and Communications -- the cutting edge of Smith Micro
D'oh! Of course! Thanks.

But I prefer Vern's explanation, though. :D

My point was: this film was entirely made in Flash, and it doesn't show anywhere. They used Flash for doing frame-by-frame, as opposed to doing limited cut-out style, is that what you mean? I'm sorry, but the days when you could identify and criticise the "Flash look" are long gone. I ass...

Either 5.6 is using features in Windows that are only in XP and Vista, not ME, or maybe the protection that SmithMicro are using now is incompatible with ME. Either way, it's not something that is likely to be fixed. Although if you can find another 10 ME users, that might be enough to have a whole ...

Our MarCom team is looking for new samples of work done with Anime Studio.
What's MarCom? Is it a festival or website?

It's a good student film. What's your point about reading the text and watching it again? Do you think the director is being too pretentious? Sounded like standard film school talk to me.

What am I missing? :?

Maybe everybody needs to watch the "dance sequence" from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves again, paying close attention to the movement of the dwarves. We should be able to do this with Anime Studio Pro, and the right amount of 2D modeling talent. Trying to do that style of animation is n...

Hey, you guys were gentle with me, thanks! :D Just to comment on your comments... I would guess that the software is being developed on the linux platform. I thought I saw a Windows path in an error message, so at least the Windows version isn't made on Linux. But maybe I'm wrong. :) In any case, th...

Is the Linux version holding AS back?

This is going to make me REALLY unpopular, but with only 11 sales of the Linux version, wouldn't the single ASP programmer's time be better spent fixing and improving the Mac and Windows versions, rather than maintaining a Linux version? I'm hoping against hope that it's just a button that is presse...

Right now Anime Studio is #2 on a google search for "2d animation software".
Google is a fickle mistress. I just checked and AS is on page 2.

Plastic Animation Paper is #2, whatever that is. :?
