Mike Scott shows off Anime Studio Pro 8's advanced toolset
in the world-premier of 'The Anime-tors'.
"Anime Studio is the most advanced and versatile software tool I've worked with," said Mike Scott, an independent animation director whose work includes the award-winning Goldfish music videos, as well as animated shorts, designs, and cartoons. "I am a big fan of the mass-retaining, squash-and-stretch, and bone-rigging functionality. Version 8 handles animation cycles more simply and with a greater deal of control and efficiency during my design process."
"I won Anime Studio in a little animation competition. That was great! Before Anime Studio, I kind of hacked my way through Adobe Premiere but that was NOT ideal. I used After Effects a bit, but found Anime Studio to be awesome. After Effects is a bit pricey and not as suited to 2D animation as I wanted. I also have Toon Boom Animate 2, but I don't really use it that much."
"The Goldfish "Get Busy Living" music video was inspired by the Lucasarts point-n-click adventures...The 'Get Busy Living' project went smoothly thanks to Anime Studio. I had two laptops so the 'pack up and go' option (or 'gather media and go' or something) made life easier when I wanted to render on my other laptop. It didn't crash ONCE!"
