Aseprite
Animated sprite editor & pixel art tool
Aseprite is a program to create animated sprites. Sprites are composed of layers & frames as separated concepts. Support for color profiles and different color modes: RGBA, Indexed (palettes up to 256 colors), Grayscale. Animation facilities, with real-time preview and onion skinning. Copy & paste. Drag & drop. Resize palette. Palette entries with alpha value. Select color harmonies. Create light and shadows with the shading ink. Create perfect strokes for pixel-art. Avoid extreme pixel distortions when rotating tiny sprites. Create patterns repeating the image in a 3x3 grid. Create custom brushes for dithering. Composite layers to create color effects. Open or save a sequence of images. Create animations and save them as .gif files. Export your work to sprite sheets in .png and .json files. Recovery your sprites in case of crash. Integrate Aseprite in your assets pipeline with the command-line interface (CLI). Store several animations in one texture atlas. -

GLMixer
Graphic Live Mixer
GLMixer performs real time graphical blending of several movie clips and of computer generated graphics. Drop video files in the mixing workspace and place them in a circular area to change their opacity ; if you selects two videos, moving them together performs a fading transition. This principle generalizes to a large number of videos. Direct interaction with the video allows to be fast and reactive, and to move and deform them on screen. The output of your operations is shown in the output window, typically displayed in full-screen on an external monitor or a projector. But the output can also be saved as a video file. Control GLMixer through network using OpenSoundControl, and generate graphics with ShaderToy GLSL code. Download : https://sourceforge.net/projects/glmixer/files/ Please note GLMixer is discontinued and superseded by vimix https://brunoherbelin.github.io/vimix/ -

Monster Mash
New Sketch-Based Modeling and Animation Tool
Monster Mash is a playful, research-grade 2D-to-3D modeling and animation tool that turns quick pen strokes into lively, deformable characters in seconds. You sketch a silhouette and interior strokes to hint at limbs or structure, then “inflate” the drawing into a volumetric, puppet-like mesh that preserves the feel of the original art. The interface favors immediacy: draw, inflate, pose, and record motion directly in the canvas, without manual rigging, weight painting, or complicated asset pipelines. Under the hood it builds a lightweight surface and auto-assigns handles so you can grab and move parts intuitively, with smooth deformations propagating across the body. Because it runs interactively, artists iterate rapidly—blocking poses, trying alternate proportions, or recording short performances—before exporting results downstream. It’s equally useful for education, previs, and indie production where fast iteration trumps photorealism. -
