Animation Styles
BONE ANIMATION
Apply a skeletal bone structure to your drawing,
picture or puppet character and animate
them with ease. Bend body parts to create
gestures and walk cycles much faster, while
preserving proportion and volume.
TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
If your talent translates best on paper, then
Studio is for you. Scan-in drawings with no loss
of quality using any TWAIN supported device,
then use Studio's proven technology to take
your illustrations into the digital world!

Create remarkable stop-motion animation using
any object you'd like to bring to life. Insert fun
backgrounds using Chroma Key, or use timelapse
imagery to generate unique visuals. Add
audio and easily export to the web!
CUT-OUT ANIMATION
Draw, create or import elements to build
characters and store them all in your personal
library, then apply Studio's powerful transform
tool and motion paths to set timing and create
movement.

Boom Studio offers all the traditional animation
features at the tip of your digital pen. A
