Rigging — implemented

Not just frames. A skeleton underneath.

Bind your artwork to bones and pose it, instead of redrawing the same arm eighty times. This is the part most free tools stop short of.

• Bones & inverse kinematics Chain bones and drag a hand — the arm solves itself. Move the hips and a planted foot stays planted. Angle limits, aim-at constraints and springy dynamics come along.
• Meshes that bend the drawing Paint bone weights onto a mesh so the art stretches instead of sliding like paper cut-outs — or drag mesh points directly for squash and ripple, with no rig at all.
• A dope sheet you can actually edit Select, drag, copy and scale keyframes to fix your timing. Set a play range, drop named markers, and cycle a walk so it keeps on walking. Switch to Curves to shape the motion itself, and layer one action over another.
• Depth and sound A multiplane camera where a dolly genuinely reads differently from a zoom, plus a sound lane for every voice in the scene, with mute and solo, to time the action against.
• Characters that talk Switch layers swap mouth shapes, hand poses or head turns frame by frame, and switch bones do the same for the skeleton. Lip sync keys a mouth set from your clip, from a Rhubarb or Papagayo file, or from typed dialogue, and a jaw bone moves with the voice.
• Move a whole character at once Folders move, turn, scale and animate as one piece, and a rigged character's skeleton comes along, so the animation plays the same, just somewhere else. Duplicate the folder and you have a second character with a skeleton of its own.
• One drawing, a whole crowd Turn a layer into a symbol and place it as often as you like — every copy is a live link, so fixing the walk fixes all of them. Offset and speed keep twenty copies from marching in lockstep, and a symbol exports to a file you can import into your next project.
