Drama is a native Mac app for designing animations and prototyping user interaction. It lets users build interconnected Scenes connected by Transitions, and animate individual layer attributes with precise timing. It includes tools like Magic Move, Magic Drag, Drivers, 3D layers, and a companion Mirror app for previewing prototypes on iPhone and iPad.
