About

EffectCraft is a node-based visual-effects (VFX) and motion-graphics application for creating procedural effects and compositing work. Artists can connect effect nodes, arrange layers, adjust parameters, and preview output in a graph editor. The application supports 2D compositing and motion-graphics workflows, with timeline and keyframe controls, reusable effects and templates, and project rendering and export. EffectCraft offers a browser build as well as downloadable desktop builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux; its processing is designed to run on the user's machine rather than through a hosted rendering service. It is aimed at independent creators, motion designers, video editors, and VFX artists exploring node-based workflows. A JSON control interface and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enable compatible tools to interact with the application. The project is described as alpha-stage software, so features and workflows may change between releases.

About

Express Animate helps you create stunning animations using objects, images, illustrations, and videos. Choose from a wide array of effects and animation tools to add your creative flare to your project. Get creative with applying transformations and effects to image objects. Quickly convert a color object to black and white or sepia. Enhance an object by adjusting the color temperature or saturation. Use keyframes with the object properties to motion tween, zoom, rotate, and more. Add life to your characters and animated cartoons. Animate separate body parts or group multiple objects together to optimize the animation process. Use the timeline to move your character and create animations. Use multiple layers and keyframes to add special effects, audio, and more. Express Animate has advanced tools for experienced animators and graphic designers, including vector masks, onion skins, blending modes, and a graph editor for precise animation.
