Animate offers the most advanced toolset to create animation.
The rigging tool is made for robust frameworks where each peg and element can be connected together. Toon Boom Animate lets you choose the rigging which best fits your case, such as Open Rig for full freedom and few dependencies to complete hierarchy.

let the morphing create the in-betweens for you automatically. Increase the quality of your production without
overtime by simply adding morphing between mouth drawings.
