Make your animation move.

Animate characters in real time with Adobe Character Animator. Use Adobe Animate to create vector animations. Create composites, motion graphics, and visual effects with Adobe After Effects. And move seamlessly between them and other Adobe apps, including Photoshop and Illustrator. Whether you’re using Windows or macOS, the right drawing tools and animation software awaits.

Animate in real time. Really.

Using your webcam and microphone along with motion capture technology, Character Animator matches your movements and expressions — from lip-syncing to tracking eyes — to animate characters so fast, you can even stream live. And with the Characterizer feature, you can quickly turn any piece of art into an animation.

Create animations for TV, movies, the web, and more.

Animate (formerly Flash Professional) lets you create high-quality vector graphics that are scalable, reusable, and adaptable for cartoons, banners, games, and other interactive content. It’s easy to import from Animate to After Effects and publish your animated videos to multiple platforms with the push of a button.
