Open Source Animation Software

Synfig is a powerful, industrial-strength vector-based 2D animation software package, designed from the ground-up for producing feature-film quality 2D animation with fewer people and resources.

With the Spritesheet Cutter (also called Map Editor or Level Editor) you can cut/share/export/move/name single or multiple sprites using drag & drop. There is a copy mode so maps can be created. Sprites are numbered left to right/top to bottom or randomly. Sprites can be added to a sheet and saved as a whole. An animation preview is included. Spritesheet Cutter cannot create GIFs, but there are better solutions. Color selections can be converted to transparency.

Videos generation from java code

Pencil2D is an animation/drawing application for OSX, Windows and Linux. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animations (cartoons) using both bitmap and vector graphics.

Create 3D scenes linked together in short films through simple menus. Designed for Java3D beginners, and developers to include code in extension Panels. Installation instructions in readme.txt in files tab. 1-Scene/ backstage Open and close scenes. Choose background, generate a terrain, set lights, fog, camera position, sky picture, scene duration. 2-Draw/ placement Import objects (OBJ, C3D, 3DS), or create shapes (sphere, cone, etc...). Place them and set size, dimensions, duplicate, group. 3-Color/texture Apply textures, colors, transparency 4-Animation/ story board Move object between two points or more(placement /orientation in space). Rotation, orbit, transparency/color change, traveling, with timers. Scenes are linked, making a movie with smooth transitions when running. Changes : Ressources have been moved in dist file because end of hosting of Orange/pagesperso plus somes minor changes.
