The GNU/Linux version is available as a downloadable demo or fully functional product for 9 in a 123MB Zip file. The Pro edition is particularly aimed at one-person studios, which lack the staff to create detailed animations quickly without computer assistance. According to product manager Fahim Niaz, this version is intended for “professional and aspiring users” rather than the hobbyists who are the market for the basic version of the program. Released last month, the GNU/Linux version is the professional version of Anime Studio Pro. Last year, e frontier, a company already known for such animation products as Poser, Shade, and Manga Studio, purchased and renamed Moho. When BeOS failed commercially, Clifton ported Moho to Windows and Mac OS, and, in 2003, to GNU/Linux.
Compiled from much the same code as the Windows and Mac versions, the GNU/Linux version includes the same functionality, with a complex but highly organized interface and three different forms of animation.Īnime Studio Pro was originally developed under the name Moho for the BeOS platform by Mike Clifton. Can a commercial graphics program find a market for professionals in GNU/Linux? A company called e frontier is experimenting to see if one can with Anime Studio Pro 5, an editor not only for anime, but also Flash animations, webtoons, and other forms of 2-D graphics.
