Carrara + Poser + Anime = ?

Mark Bremmer — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 08:18:13 GMT

If you use Carrara or Poser, you'll be interested in Anime Studio Pro 5.6

2D animation has historically been a major work effort - almost more than 3D. Anime Studio Pro 5 changes that. In fact the program can also import 3D content and combine it with 2D style cell animation. I've recently completed a new tutorial series for it. However, even if you've never heard of it, you might want to check out the"Introduction" and the "New in Anime" movies just to get a sense of some other ways to use your creative talent! (And the program is very affordable - But I don't sell it!)
