Since the acquisition, the software has not been updated and can no longer be purchased. In 2009, Toon Boom acquired the British company Cambridge Animation Systems, developer of Animo.
In 2006, Toon Boom acquired French company Pegs'n Co, developer of the 2D bitmap animation software called Pegs. It has since become Toon Boom Harmony.įounding President and Chief Executive Officer Jacques Bilodeau left the company in May 2003, and the company's board of directors appointed Chief Operating Officer Joan Vogelesang to take his place. Toon Boom Animation continued the development of USAnimation software which became Toon Boom Opus. That merger never took place, and USAnimation's studio changed its name to VirtualMagic Animation in 1996 and operated independently. Its animation production services were to be merged into CST Entertainment according to a premature press release from CST.
It's not a cheap stylus either, but a fully-featured one that can really help you with your art and animation.In 1996, Toon Boom purchased the software development business of USAnimation studio. Unlike most other laptops, the Acer Spin 5 comes with a stylus included, which makes it even better value. The screen is also a 3:2 aspect ratio, which actually makes drawing and working on more comfortable, as the screen is taller. This can be a big boon to productivity, as you can use a stylus to draw on the touchscreen. It's also a 2-in-1 device, which means as well as being a traditional laptop, its screen can flip back, turning it into a tablet-like device. It's affordable, especially compared to a lot of the other laptops on this list, but that doesn't mean it skimps on features or performance.įor a start, this is a laptop that can handle pretty much any animation app you rely on (though it'll struggle with complex 3D animations due to its lack of dedicated graphics card), and with a 12 hour battery life, it's a device you can comfortably use for a whole work day. If you're looking for a flexible laptop for doing some animation on, then the Acer Spin 5 is a great choice.
