#STOP MOTION STUDIO PRO UPDATE#
This update includes new onion skin, playback controls, and animation guide layers. I have been forced to settle for “OK,” and that is not okay. No other software I’ve tried does what I need it to. There is also barely any competition for this app on the App Store. The onion skinning doesn’t work very well either, as it displays a blurry and very bright or very dark version of the frame before and makes it very difficult to find exactly what you’re changing. It is also completely impossible to retrieve the frames once they are warped. It has built-in “draw” and “erase” features, and occasionally while drawing or erasing a 4K photo, it will warp the frame and make it impossible to work with. My worst issue with it is with the “4K” feature on the app. The camera is inconsistent from frame to frame, making it very difficult to make a decent-looking film. The “erase” feature doesn’t work very well at all.

It has difficulty displaying videos at only 12 frames/second.

I have been animating using Stop-Motion Studio for over a year and I have encountered a large number of issues. However, although it claims to make it simple and easy to animate, its only problems are with its own self-made limitations. This app is great if you are a beginning animator.
