Toon Boom Launches Harmony 12 Product Family

Three New Editions Available: Adds Performance, Effects and Animation Features, Plus an Optional Desktop Subscription

Montreal, Canada — April 13, 2015 — With today’s launch of Harmony 12,  Toon Boom Animation democratizes animation with a product line full of new features for studios and enthusiasts alike. Now with three editions of this popular 2D animation software and an optional subscription model that starts as low as $15 per month, the same production tools used by the world’s largest animation studios are accessible to everyone.

“Harmony 12 is not only our most powerful product ever, it’s now available for every type of user,” said Francisco Del Cueto, CTO at Toon Boom.

Each Harmony 12 edition caters to a different type of user and their unique animation requirements:

"The new Harmony Essentials is perfect for my friends who have expressed interest in my career as an animator and can now try many of the tools I use every day in Harmony Premium for themselves,"  says Christina Halstead, freelance animator.

And for teams or studios that need to streamline production, Harmony Server offers a secure and flexible way to collaborate and share a central asset and production database.

Used on productions like The SimpsonsSpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of the Water, and The Congress, Harmony is the gold standard of 2D animation. Harmony combines artist-friendly drawing and animation tools with automation and workflow shortcuts to deliver a uniquely powerful creation experience. Feature improvements in Harmony 12 include:  

“We are very excited about the release of Harmony 12. The improvements in speed for the interactive user controls and render will have a distinct impact on our pipeline,” said Andrew Schoentag, Vice President of Digital and Post Production at Disney Television Animation. “The expansion of supporting third-party plugins is groundbreaking for the software, and will change the way the industry views Harmony as a compositing tool. We will be moving all our shows to using version 12.”
