Free and open-source animation software·synfig.org
Synfig Studio is a free and open-source 2D animation software designed as a powerful, industrial-strength solution for creating film-quality animation using vector and bitmap artwork. It eliminates the need to create animation frame-by-frame, allowing production of higher-quality 2D animation with fewer people and resources. It offers 50+ layer types, a full-featured bone system for cutout animation, and advanced parameter linking for character puppets.
