This Simple Animation Platform Is Used By NASA, Google, & More

Animation makes everything more exciting — from Hollywood movies to marketing and design briefs. Of course, not just everybody can be an animator, it takes artistic talent and years of training. Or it takes a subscription to Animatron Studio.

Animatron Studio is used by the likes of NASA, Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Disney to create beautiful animated videos without extreme technical knowledge. This platform uses a WYSIWYG editor to make animation design simple, letting you create explainer videos, design HTML5 banners, make stunning presentations, and much more without ever drawing a line.

Their library features thousands of free, pre-animated characters, backgrounds, and props to choose from and also allows you to import, place, and edit your own graphics, photos, audio, and video content seamlessly. Everything is completely customizable and easily exported to HTML5, SVG, GIF, or video formats for universal playback. From mobile-friendly, entertaining ads to children’s’ educational content, there’s virtually nothing you can’t do with Animatron.

A one-year subscription to Animatron Studio’s Prop Plan typically retails for $360, but you can get one today for just $29.99.
