Striking SpeedWith the ever-increasing assortment of television channels and broadcast media, as well as a growing demand for local content, animation studios need to create fresh content in an evolving number of formats for satellite, cable, mobile, IPTV and the web. In that context, Toon Boom Harmony is the most advantageous solution, handling all steps from pre-production to design, animation, compositing and multi-platform rendering.
Harmony will accelerate the creative process by automating repetitive tasks, eliminating the conversion of data between applications and assembling assets in a central repository.
With Toon Boom Harmony, you will enjoy the freedom to deliver any kind of animated project, no matter what its complexity or style. Harmony is simply the best-integrated animation toolset on the market; no other solution will deliver outstanding animation faster, or more efficiently to all existing broadcasting formats, from mobile screens to digital cinema theaters.
