📚️ TupiTube is a libre, multi-platform 2D animation tool focused on simplicity (aimed at children, teachers or amateur artists) and 2D vector content such as images, storyboards and animations. It offers an intuitive interface providing basic, practical tools.
📜️ "A libre 2D animation tool with an emphasis on ease of use" 📜️
TupiTube Desk is a 2D animation tool for desktop environments focused on usability for children and amateur artists. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems.
Tupi is a desktop application focused on 2D vector-based content like images (PNG), storyboards (HTML) and animations (OGG, AVI, MPEG, etc). Its interface has been designed looking for provide a high level experience of usability for artists and non artists, using as main development resource the Qt framework.
Tupi can be defined in few words just as a Free Software 2D Animation Tool, but behind the software there are several ideas about our vision that we want to share with you:
☑ Tupi is a social project. It's a tool available for everyone wanting to learn about animation, that's the main reason of its free license and its free price. We want to help to democratize digital 2D animation as art expression and as profession.
☑ Tupi is a powerful tool for teaching and learning. After getting the feedback from teachers that use Tupi in their classes, we are aware of the impact of Tupi in the classroom, not only as an “art class tool” but as an excuse to teach a lot of different matters (mathematics, biology, geography, etc).
☑ Tupi is a proposal of user experience (UX) looking for providing an intuitive and easy-to-use interface for a global community of users from different age groups. We like to remind us this ambitious goal with our slogan: “from children from 8 to 100 years old”.
☑ Tupi is a basic but handy tool pretending to get a spot in the pipeline of small animation studios around the world. As animation exercises are made by children using Tupi, also there are digital artists playing with it to create their professional works. We want to keep enhancing Tupi to make it an important complement for professional animators around the world.
About its license, Tupi as a software project, is covered under the terms of the GPLv2+ license.

2D Animation design and authoring tool
Tupi: 2D Magic is a design and authoring tool for digital artists interested in 2D Animation, offering an interface experience focused on 8-100 years old kids. It's source code is based on the KTooN project.
Some of its main features are: basic illustration tools (shapes, fill, text), gradient tools, onion skin, brushes editor, pencil with smoothness support, basic object library (for svg files and raster images) and many others.
Using its modules of Animation and Reproduction you can export 2D projects to several formats as OGG, MPEG, AVI, MOV and SWF. Additionally, the option of exporting Image arrays as output is available.
🌍️ Wikipedia:
TupiTube (also known as Tupi 2D) is a free and open-source 2D animation software for amateur artists, children, and teenagers. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X, Unix-like operating systems, and Android. This project is developed and maintained by the Colombian startup, Mae Floresta. This project is covered under the terms of GPL-2.0-or-later.
History
Background and first versions
TupiTube is the product of two young Colombian entrepreneurs from the city of Santiago de Cali who, in 2002, led the KToon initiative together with the companies Toonka Films and Soluciones Kazak. The software aims to be a tool to encourage young people throughout Latin America interested in the development of the animation industry. The incentive to build TupiTube was due to the founder's goals to create a community of digital artists.
KToon laid the foundations to secure the initial investments in the project. Entities such as Colciencias, the Sena, and others supported the initiative during its early development years. This financing model sustained the project in its initial stages. In 2010, the KToon development team regrouped and rebranded the project as Tupi 2D Magic. Later, MaeFloresta was configured as the developer, maintaining the vision of its predecessors.
Tupi 2D Magic focuses on providing an experience where users can animate, illustrate, and design across various spaces. It has even become a valuable tool in classrooms, reaching 400,000 students in India. Over 3,000 schools in the country have chosen it as their preferred software.
News and trajectory
Mae Floresta needed to continue its brand projection, and Tupi 2D Magic underwent a transformation with the intention of being institutionalized as the preferred free 2D animation software for children, young people, and digital artists in training. This transformation aimed to facilitate growth, reach new audiences, and maintain competitiveness in the market.
The software exists to pursue the goal of being a tool for artistic education in digital environments, addressing the academic possibilities that animation training can offer. It actively participates in events where information and communication technologies (ICTs) and educational projects converge, contributing to the creation of a culture where technological education is a priority.
Now, the efforts of TupiTube's development team are beginning to yield results. They have received various awards for hosting TupiTube and for being an exemplary model of entrepreneurship in the digital commerce industry.
Features
The software includes many features:
• Support for basic tools for vector illustration that includes rectangles, ellipses, lines, and polygons. Paths can also be created using the pen or pencil tool. The paint bucket tool can be used to fill bounded areas of vector objects.
• Raster images (sometimes called Bitmap) can be imported and used as either static backgrounds or animated assets.
• Finished animations can be exported to various file formats that include: Ogg Theora, AVI, MPEG, SWF. They may also be exported as a sequence of images in PNG, JPEG, or SVG format.
• Basic support for tweaking of positions, colors, rotation, scale, sheer, and opacity has been added to recent releases.
• The Library panel allows for the organization and reuse of imported media assets.
Future development
The goal of being a tool for introducing novice digital artists to the world of animation was fulfilled with the first release. Development is focused on reaching a professional level that will allow advanced users to make professional-quality animations.
Some of the areas of future development include: particles, sound support, key frames, and morphing. Plans have also been made to have skeleton animation with bones, inverse kinematics, and pivots.
Un logiciel d'animation 2D libre mettant l'accent sur la simplicité d'utilisation, par Gustav González, initié par MaeFloresta.
En C++.
TupiTube ou Tupi (anciennement KTooN) est un outil d'animation 2D libre et multi-plateforme axé sur la simplicité (il se destine aux enfants, à l'enseignement ou aux artistes amateurs) et le contenu vectoriel 2D tel que les images, storyboards et animations. Il offre une interface intuitive fournissant des outils basiques et pratiques.

TupiTube Desk est un outil d'animation 2D pour les environnements de bureau, axé sur la convivialité pour les enfants et les artistes amateurs. Il est disponible pour les systèmes d'exploitation Windows, Mac et Linux.
Tupi est une application de bureau axée sur le contenu vectoriel 2D comme les images (PNG), les storyboards (HTML) et les animations (OGG, AVI, MPEG, etc.). Son interface a été conçue pour fournir une expérience de haut niveau de convivialité pour les artistes et les non-artistes, en utilisant comme principale ressource de développement le framework Qt.
Tupi peut être défini en quelques mots comme un outil libre d'animation 2D, mais derrière le logiciel il y a plusieurs idées sur notre vision que nous voulons partager avec vous :
• Tupi est un projet social. C'est un outil disponible pour tous ceux qui veulent en savoir plus sur l'animation, c'est la principale raison de sa licence libre et de son prix gratuit. Nous voulons aider à démocratiser l'animation numérique 2D en tant qu'expression artistique et en tant que profession.
• Tupi est un outil puissant pour enseigner et apprendre. Après avoir reçu les commentaires des enseignants qui utilisent Tupi dans leurs classes, nous sommes conscients de l'impact de Tupi dans la salle de classe, non seulement comme un «outil de classe d'art» mais comme une excuse pour enseigner beaucoup de choses différentes (mathématiques, biologie, géographie, etc.).
• Tupi est une proposition d'expérience utilisateur (UX) qui cherche à fournir une interface intuitive et facile à utiliser pour une communauté mondiale d'utilisateurs de différents groupes d'âge. Nous aimons nous rappeler cet objectif ambitieux avec notre slogan: "des enfants de 8 à 100 ans".
• Tupi est un outil basique mais pratique qui prétend faire sa place dans les petits studios d'animation du monde entier. Comme les exercices d'animation sont réalisés par des enfants utilisant Tupi, il y a aussi des artistes numériques qui jouent avec pour créer leurs œuvres professionnelles. Nous voulons continuer à améliorer Tupi pour en faire un complément important pour les animateurs professionnels du monde entier.
A propos de sa licence, Tupi en tant que projet logiciel, est couvert par les termes de la licence GPLv2 +.
