About

About Synfig Studio

Synfig Studio is a free, open-source 2D animation tool. Its vector and bitmap workflows use parameters and keyframes to create motion between poses, while layers and bone-based controls help organize an animated scene. Try it for a character exercise, animated logo or short explainer sequence. It offers a different workflow from drawing every frame individually.

Is Synfig Studio free?

Yes. The application is available without a purchase price under its published open-source license. Download links on this page point to the official project distribution.

Which Windows download is provided?

Synfig Studio 1.4.5 for Windows x64. Run the official Synfig Studio 1.4.5 win64 installer. This is the stable 1.4 series; the 1.5 development series is a separate choice on the upstream project.

How can it help an independent game or software project?

Create 2D vector animation with tweening, layers and bone-based controls in the free Synfig Studio application. Use original assets and test a small project before making it part of a larger workflow.
