"It is a great honour to bring our relationship with Toon Boom to the next level. Making the technology available in our native language will bring its reach to a new local community already excited about Toon Boom technology. It will facilitate its use and propel 2D animation to new heights. To commemorate the launch of the Japanese version of Harmony and Storyboard Pro, we are offering special pricing through January 31, 2015," stated Mr. Hitoshi Kumagai, CEO of HeARTBIT Digital Creation.
Accompanying this product launch is a new Japanese website: jp.toonboom.com. This website was designed by HeartBit in collaboration with Toon Boom Animation, providing interested customers with product details, pricing information, and technical support information.
