Paul Fierlinger has been in the animation business for almost fifty years, so when he recommends a tool or technique, other animators sit up and listen.
Paul is able to draw and test out animation frames using the software's industry-leading paint feature-set, and the real-time paint engine means he is actually able to work faster and produce a quality and style of work that would otherwise take him much longer to accomplish.
The customizable nature of the software also means Paul can set it up to suit his particular style of work and the specific nature of his projects, rather than having to conform to someone else's sense of how animation should be finished.
