Toon Boom is a leading software solution for animation studios to create high quality animations for film, video, television, games, web sites, mobile devices, training applications and more. Brown Bag Films, the Oscar-nominated Irish studio, spent a lot of time researching software before settling on Toon Boom. Most recently, they went into production with "Wobbly Land" using Toon Boom and kindly offered to give a workshop presentation at Darklight on how Toon Boom can be effectively used in the studio production process. This was an exciting and interesting workshop for anyone interested in cutting-edge animation.
