App Description

“This is the first animation app that I've found for the iPad that just works.... I've made some awesome title sequences and graphic inserts for little movies I edit using ReelDirector. I'm working on a fully-SpriteDance animation, too. It's just a lot of fun.” (5-Stars SFDex)

From kids' cartoons to corporate presentations, moving birthday cards to animated assembly instructions, you and your iPad will be ready for any animation emergency with SpriteDance. Position your sprite, with simple gestures, tap a button to remember that pose, then adjust the time and set a new pose for your sprite. Repeat until your sprite moves where you want it when you want it. You can adjust these keyframe poses at any time, and work with one or several sprites at the same time.
With PixelSplincher's revolutionary new Digital Tracking system, complex animations that follow moving targets in your video are a breeze; just place your digit on the target and follow it as the video plays.

When you are happy with your animation, you can save it to the iPad photo album or send it to YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, or any other app that that supports sharing.

While SpriteDance comes with a huge library of sprites, you can easily import your own directly from the iPad photo album, or drop them into the app through iTunes. This makes it easy to use any of the millions of PNG images with transparent backgrounds you can find on the web as sprites in your own productions. SpriteDance also lets you create sprites from text using any of the built-in iPad fonts, with text and outlines in any color. You can also create sprites from emoji!

SpriteDance includes a set of stages to get you started quickly, or you can pick any movie or photo in your Photo Album to use for an animation background. And because you can save any frame of your animation back to the photo album, SpriteDance is also great for compositing still frames from different graphic elements and text.
