Doodle animation app for the iPhone and iPod Touch
Doodleflick™ is a cool iPhone animation app that makes it easy to make amusing, fun or really bad (it can't always be helped) animations from simple doodles.
Using Doodleflick
All you need to do is create a doodle, or copy one from the library (below), to create a start frame, then doodle the second frame, and you're done.
Doodleflick will create all the transition frames and start the animation. You can then go back and edit the key frames or select other options to customise it. You can select any of the built-in transitions to, for example, blow your doodle up, stretch it, crush it or shrink it to nothing, depending on your mood.
It's really easy to use and a great creative app for kids.
Here is an example of how easy it is to build an animation with just two key frames.
Okay, not really. To make an animated GIF you need to save the 'tween frames generated by doodleflick. In the one above I also added the flare manually and faded it out and (sigh) it was a pig frankly, but otherwise yes! Just two doodles.
The Early Bird, below, is simpler - just two doodles and no special effects.
The Dancers are an example of three doodles and a simple fade in effect.
