Pivot Stickfigure Animation - A little free animation software

Pivot Stickfigure Animator is a great application that allows you to create stick figure animations that range from the simple to impressive - with a little time and patience. Note that this little free software is just for fun. Do not expect to create any stunning 3D animation with it. But hell, stick figures are too fun! :D

Working on the normal basics of stick figure animation, create individual frames of action and then view them in sequence, producing the animation. Think of a story, design the frames and watch your work of art in action! Of course, you can modify each Pivot Stickfigure Animator frame in any way you want, using some of the pre-set characters, creating your own, adding color and changing the background. 

As you can see in the screenshot, it looks pretty SIMPLE, and it is! The interface consists of few buttons. Stick figures can take quite a while to animate thou. A usual sequence of animation can take up to hours to complete (although they look simple).

Pros:

- Unlimited possibilities of animation.

- Create your own stick figure characters!

- Stick figures are freaking FUN!

Cons:

- Interface is not well designed.

- You can only use 1 back ground in each animation.

- Visual effects are lacking.

Conclusion:

While it's fun to animate stick figures, that's all it can do. If you want to create more stunning animations, I'd turn to more powerful and completed 3D animation kits.
