Sometimes it is handy to be able to record a sequence of a specific number of frames in real time. Before this, one of the biggest challenges was to animate dialog and get the mouth movement right. This video is displayed alongside the animation window or composed into the animation video transparently. Instead of painstakingly planning your animation and creating an “x-sheet”, simply load in a cue video to guide your animation. Meanwhile the flexibility of the feature brings ambitious movie ideas into the reach of the ambitious hobbyist and the pro. Kids can have their toys walk on the moon or explore a coral reef deep down in the ocean. An example for this is the chroma keying that provides a virtual stage. It was an ambitious goal, but we think we achieved it with iStopMotion 2”, says Florian Albrecht, responsible for iStopMotion’s development at Boinx Software. “Our goal was to add new capabilities that appeal to professionals while keeping it so easy that kindergarden kids love to use it.
#ISTOPMOTION 2 TORRENT LICENSE KEY#
A special education edition with a multi-user license key is available for educational institutions. The Pro edition is for the animator who makes money (or plans to) with stop motion animation. The Express version is for the serious hobbyist animator, with all the great stuff appreciated by pro animators at a reasonable price. The Home edition is for the family, where the parents want to spend a great weekend with their kids. IStopMotion 2 comes in three flavors, targeting different users. Features such as virtual stages, which allow an animator to place the objects into a prerecorded background, rotoscoping, where the animator loads in a video that guides him in the animation, the ability to record a certain number of frames in real time and support for HD cameras, take stop motion animation on the Mac to a whole new level. After over 2 years of development and a lengthy public test phase, iStopMotion 2 is ready for prime time and of course, Mac OS X Leopard.
