Synfig Studio relies on bitmap and vector artwork and a generous set of tools to help you create high-quality 2D animations. With its help, you can skip going through each frame to build your animation, which results in delivering a project with less resource consumption.

With a tab-based interface that enables you to work on multiple projects simultaneously, Synfig Studio comes with a satisfying toolset you can use to unfold your creativity and generate compelling animations.

The purpose of Synfig Studio is to offer designers the possibility to skip tweening, simulating motion and transition much easier and rendering animations much faster. Most of the application's elements are vector-based, and all the layers are parametrically generated.

Synfig Studio supports layers of various types, including transformations, distortions, filters, geometric layers, fractals, gradients, and more. And thanks to the Skeleton Distortion layer, you can easily deform your artwork to obtain the effect you are looking for.

The application's toolbox is like a bag of goods: it comprises all the tools you need to create objects (polygons, circles, stars), scale and rotate items, draw shapes, fill them with color, and apply them color gradient effects.

Synfig Studio might not match the capabilities of professional animation creation software, but it provides an open-source alternative that can help you make some of your ideas come to life.

Despite the fact that its working environment needs a little time to adjust to and the set of tools might not be so intuitive to some, it cannot be denied that it is an interesting piece of software for people interested in creating film-quality 2D animations.

And if all this is new to you, there are a few sample projects to help you get started and a comprehensive documentation with tutorials that can provide assistance.
