About OpenToonz
- Software for the production of 2D animation.
Based on the software "Toonz", developed by Digital Video S.p.A. in Italy, OpenToonz has been customized by Studio Ghibli, and used for the creation of its works for many years. Dwango has launched the OpenToonz project in cooperation with Digital Video and Studio Ghibli.
- OpenToonz can be used free of charge for both commercial and non-commercial projects.
- Available as an open-source so that anyone can modify its source code freely.
- We aim to develop a new platform for connecting the academic research with cutting edge animation production.

Effects
By using the plug-in effect SDK, the effects developed by Dwango's machine learning research and development team are released. They include the effect of automatically changing picture styles by applying the deep learning technology and the effect of producing affected incident light like those in classic works before the digitization of the production environment.
