Animation used to be incredibly labor intensive. Sketch out a drawing, use ink or paint to shape it exactly the way you want it, then start the whole process over again for the next cel. Do that a dozen times — and you’ve created one second of animation.
Now, cool software has shaved hours and even days off the time it takes to create animation. It’s even simplified the process to the point where even novices with limited art ability can craft great animated sequences.
CrazyTalk Animator 3 Pro is one of those apps with the tools to make just about anyone into a real animator. With this latest offer from TNW Deals, you can pick up this full-blown animation-studio-in-a-box for Mac or Windows for only $79, a $100 savings off the regular price.
