Do you remember the time in which animators used to draw a series of scene on many sheets of paper, and in the end roll them to get an animation? Animation-ish can do the exact same thing, but easier and with a bit more fun. The application is spread in three modules: Wiggledoodle-ish, Flip-Book-Ish and Advanced-Ish.
The first offers the option to create, step by step, animation composed by a maximum of three frames. For this, you have available a pen, an eraser and a tool that allows you to rapidly fill different drawn spaces.
After you draw a slide, you can add a new one which will have imprinted the first slide. THis way you will be able to change the drawing more precisely and create a simple animation. Further more, if you have a set of sketches, you will be able to use them as a model with the help of the Import feature. In the end, the animation you created can be exported in video format, as Flash, or as a sequence of images to be able to share with your friends. The second module is similar to the first one, but it will give you the option to add an unlimited number of slides, duplicate them or delete based on your preferences.
The third module offers a series of tools that allows you to create more complex animations. For example, Transform inserts on many slides the same drawing, give the movement impression. The application allows the creation of drawings on two layers with the help of the Behind feature, which allows you to create simple 3D animations. For users who have inspiration lacks, the application also provides some short video tutorials.
Even if you can’t create some works of art with this application, Animation-Ish is a good way to unwind in any moment of the day.
