Animatron is an online animation studio that makes it possible to make small animations and videos to enrich your courses, class presentations or blogs.
Animatron is part of this series of creative tools that allow both teachers and students to make multimedia objects relatively easily to explain a concept or idea better than with long sentences.
Animatron Studio puts it, among other things, on animations like cartoons. A bit like this other online animation studio Presented here a few months ago, Animatron also relies on ease of use to allow you to intuitively create animations to be published on the web or downloaded so that you can share or present them in class or at a conference.
Once registered on the platform you have access to a publisher who takes charge quite quickly. Everything is done by simply dragging and dropping on a kind of timeline that allows you to manage your small scenario and the duration of your animation. If you have ever used video editing software, whatever it is, you will soon be on familiar ground.
The big advantage and one of the main strengths of Animatron is that it offers you a library with thousands of characters, free backgrounds and pre-animated accessories that just need to be dragged onto your editing table. You will also have access to many infographics, icons and animated sets designed by professionals to help you create scenes in the blink of an eye.
But of course you can also use your own content. The tool allows you to import, place and edit your own graphics, photos, audio and video content. You can also add animated text and animation elements simply.
Once your creation is finalized you can share it directly from the platform by email or on social networks. You can get a code to insert it in a website or blog. You can finally download it in most useful formats (video, animated gif, html5 etc).
Animatron Studio offers a somewhat limited free version, but enough to create a few videos occasionally. The professional version is a bit expensive at around EUR 15 per month, but you can apply for a special education rate.
