DigiCel FlipBook Makes Animation Easier

FlipBook is our original award winning app for people who like to draw and want to do traditional animation. So if you love animation like Disney, Warner Bros. or Dreamworks, this is the place for you. The Windows version runs on anything from Windows 95 to Windows 11.

Advanced
Drawing Tools

FlipBook has Shape Recognition and versatile Rulers to help you draw and edit straight lines, perfect curves, round circles and perfect squares. It also has Warp and Liquify tools to make it easier for you to improve things you’ve already drawn or as you draw them.

Faster
Painting Tools

You can drag the paint bucket just like a brush and instantly fill any area it enters. If you tap and hold the paint bucket it will fill any empty areas in the entire frame all at once. Hold it a little longer and it will fill all the enclosed areas in the entire layer.

Unique Timing Tools
FlipBook is the only app that lets you add or delete frames to adjust the timing – while the scene continues to loop. This lets you see the effect of the changes immediately and compare different timing options faster and easier than ever.

The Ultimate
LightBox

It’s like a traditional animation disc. Every drawing you open goes on top of your recent drawings. So you can see any combination of drawings you want. You can also see a layer of roughs while you do the cleanups and show the BG any time.

Super Easy
Pan, Zoom, Rotate

FlipBook is one of very few apps that let you Pan, Zoom & Rotate your scenes. It also let’s you Blur & Dissolve for smoother transitions.  This frees your creativity to call attention to what’s important & makes your scenes more interesting to watch.

Global Undo

For the icing on the cake, and the ultimate in safety and ease of use FlipBook lets you undo all the way back to the creation of the scene. Whether you’re editing an image, changing the timing in the xsheet or adding a pan and a zoom
– recovery is just a click away.

Introduction to FlipBook

This video will let you see what you can do in FlipBook. Then the rest of the videos will show you how easy it is to do.

Really Easy Animation

This video shows you how to draw and play your own 2D animation in the simplest way possible.

Pencil Test Part 1

This pencil test video was done by Jason Ryan, a professional animator for Disney, Dreamworks and Cinesite. So it shows you how a real pro uses FlipBook to do 2D and 3D animation.

Pencil Test Part 2

Here’s the rest of Jason’s pencil test video that we split it into 2 parts because it was so thorough.

Painting

This video shows you how to paint your cartoon animation. As you will see, we’ve added several painting features that you’ve never seen before to help you paint faster and easier than in any other app.

Simple Zoom

This shows you how to zoom in or out on a character in the foreground. You can zoom or scale everything together or separately and it’s all determined by which levels or “pegbars” you choose to include in your zoom.

Simple Pan

This video shows how to pan your character across the screen in front of the background. But you could also pan the background while the character walks in place by selecting to pan the background peg bar instead of a foreground pegbar.
