GoHobbyist Forums

Over the last couple of years GoAnimate has evolved from a site for animation enthusiasts who just want to get their ideas animated quickly to a site for businesses of all sizes who want to engage customers through animated video.

As a result the GoAnimate 'hobbyist' community was slowly displaced as more and more community features were removed from the website. The final nail in the coffin was the removal of the old discussion forum at the end of 2014. A forum that had served the community since the site began in 2008.

Resurecting the Monkey: Bored Monkey Character Part 4

Way back in February of 2014 I began working on my very first CrazyTalk Animator 2, Multi-Dimensional character. Formerly known as the Skate Monkey, the character has since been retitled the Bored Monkey in line with a new series of skateboard graphics I'm planning to feature him on.

Explaindio Video Creator - DIY Marketing Video Creator

Explaindio Video Creator is an easy to use presentation video creator that is geared towards marketing and sales videos but could be used to create any kind of presentation video.

I was convinced by the sales pitch that it would be very easy to use and I was particularly impressed by the white board features. It also looked to be an improvement over both  VideoMakerFX and EasySketchPro two other programs that I bought and reviewed.

Having now used Explaindio it is, in many ways, similar to VideoMakerFX and feels very much like an upgraded version of the same product with enhanced white board and other video features.
