What software does Japanese animation company use to make animation?

More professional animation software such as Manga Studio3 EX.

But the professionalism is quite high, and it needs a lot of exploration to be excellent. This is a popular professional production software.

If you don't require a special [abnormal] major, in fact, these two image making software are already very professional software, but they are not so targeted in animation.

Just use photoshop, which is more suitable for line draft processing, special effects and post-processing.

Painters have high requirements for hand painting.

However, no matter how professional the software is, it also has certain challenges to the hand-drawn skills, so it is impossible to make animated beautiful pictures easily ~

Hand-drawn draft, and then scanned into the computer.

Then you can use painter, which can imitate the effects of various painting materials, such as watercolor, oil painting, pen spray, ink painting and so on.

Then import photoshop, adjust the color, size and so on.

Now most of the illustrations are animated like this.

Of course, vector software such as llustrator is also possible.

Animation software (mainly used for commercial animation): ANIMO, TOONZ, RETAS PRO, USANIMATION…… ... ...

Introduction of six animation softwares:

Speaking of 2D animation software, many people only know FLASH. In fact, there are many more powerful animation software than FLASH. In addition to making movie-level cartoons, some software can also shuttle between 2D, 3D and the Internet. Come and have a look if you are interested. If you are interested in the following software and want to know more, welcome to my QQ space, which has detailed introduction materials. If you encounter any problems in installation and use, I will try my best to answer them for you. ^_^

My purpose is to let more people know how animation is tempered, and I hope that friends who want to do animation can find tools and software that suit them. If you want to be in line with international standards, you must know the following software!

I. AXA

AXA contains all the components needed to make computer cartoons, such as scanning drawings, pencil manuscript inspection, lens operation, color fixing, coloring, synthesis, inspection, video recording and other modules. It is completely designed for animation producers, allowing traditional producers to easily enter the ranks of digital production.

AXA was one of the first two-dimensional animation softwares to enter China, which occupied a large share in CCTV at that time. In China, it's a beautiful place, and many old companies still use it. Especially, it is famous for its simplicity, convenience and quickness. This is a tool that I highly recommend for individuals to do animation.

Representative works include: ghosts and elves, etc.

Second, the finishing touch pen aided animation production system

The only animation software in China.

The finishing touch aided animation production system is the first computer aided animation production software system with independent copyright in China. The software was jointly developed by Founder Group and CCTV. Using this system to make cartoons can greatly improve the speed of drawing lines and coloring, and can produce rich animation effects such as push-pull, swing, fade-in and fade-out, Venus and so on, thus improving the production efficiency and quality.

Three. Use animation

USAnimation is the world's first 2D cartoon production system.

With the application of USanimation, you will get the most powerful arsenal in the industry to serve your creation, allowing you to freely create unimaginable effects with traditional cartoon technology. Easily combine 2D animation and 3D images. Using multi-plane shooting, rotary focusing can push and pull the moving lens, infinite palette and infinite layers. USanimation is the only absolutely innovative interconnected synthesis system. After any layer is modified, the simulation effect of all layers can be displayed immediately! The fastest production speed

Shadow colors, special effects and highlights are all automatically colored, which saves 30%-40% time in the whole coloring process and will not lose any image quality. USanimation system produces the most perfect "hand-drawn" lines, retaining all the strokes and lines of the artist. When the schedule is stagnant for some reason, the non-parallel synthesis speed and production speed will give you the greatest freedom.

Fourth, RETAS PRO.

An epoch-making professional 2D animation production system —— RETAS PRO for PC and Mac

RETAS is a professional two-dimensional animation production system developed by Celsys Co., Ltd. in Japan, which is applied to ordinary PCs and Macs.
