Description

PuppetMaster: Animate. Literally. Anything.
This animation app lets you instantly bring to life anything you want, just by acting things out in front of the camera or touching the screen. Your voice is recorded as well. The result is your own animated video you can save and share!
The app even has fun guided activities that kids can follow along and do, making arts and crafts and then animating them.
Features include:
* Real-time animation - you animate in the moment, while you talk, and your puppet comes to life in front of your eyes.
* Motion capture - intuitively animate characters just by moving your body in front of the device camera. Use front or back camera. (Best results are usually with back camera of newer devices.)
* Multi-touch - animate by touching and dragging the puppet and its body parts on the screen, even using both hands or working together with a friend.
* Animate one or two puppets - you can have one puppet on its own, or two puppets where both can move and you can control which one is talking at any time.
* Create your own puppets - bring to life your physical artwork, your favorite toys, a person or animal, random stuff like your snacks arranged as a character, really anything you like!
* Create your own backgrounds - use a painting you made, a diorama, some interesting place, or anything else you want as your background.
* Choose from our designs - the app comes with a bunch of cool puppets and backgrounds already in it, in a cute hand drawn style that you can mix and match with your own creations.
* Export and share videos with audio - save a video of your puppet show, complete with the audio of your performance, locally and also to social media, cloud storage, or any other typical sharing method.
* In-app streaming tutorials and activities - guiding kids through using the app for visual storytelling, and teaching them how to create various physical art pieces and animate them.
On our website and social media you'll find more project ideas, educational support, and lesson plans for teachers and homeschooling parents.
PuppetMaster was named one of the Best Apps for Teaching and Learning by the American Association of School Librarians. It's a great open ended creative activity for children, supports ISTE standards, and is a great way to integrate the arts into any academic subject for a more engaging class. (Teachers say they prefer it to stop motion animation because it's so much easier and faster.)

PuppetMaster Reviews

Good concept but needs a lot of work

mynameismarjxxx on

Australia

Good app to take your own characters and puppetise them. The concept is great but it is not very practical or easy to use. It is very fiddily and takes a very long time to get something basic done. I mainly bought this app for the ‘motion capture’ feature so I don’t have to worry about manipulating the puppet by hand, but motion capture is very quirky and almost useless. With a lot more investment these issues can be ironed out but at this stage it was not worth my money.

Misclassified as Education

This is a terrific app, but is misclassified as Education meaning that Screen Time App Limits allows my kids to play this instead of learning maths or reading. The developer gave prompt support indicating they are considered reclassifying a future version.

Crash

The app crashes for us when we try to animate with the camera/body movement.

Not worth the money

3 dollars wasted today, here I thought I would have an app for my Ipad to be able to do animated icons for my clients, turns out this is just a crappy app that was most likely made in 5 minutes that softlocks anytime I try to make a puppet. This is now $60 i have to refund to my clients because I can’t deliver the type of art they ordered. Seeing as your company is just an LLC and not a big worldwide company like adobe, I am going easy on the review. Please let me know if you ever make a professional version that actually works.

Good idea, but

I got this app for my child, and she was extremely excited. But when she inserted her drawing the app made her draw the body parts. In the end it became rough and missed some parts. When she started animating, the movements were really glitchy. It made her quite sad. I do not recommend paying 3 dollars for this app.

App crashing

fyjvxdgh on

United States

I really enjoy this app but currently using this app with students. The app crashes every time we try to save and share our creations. Using iPads iOS 10.3.3. When I tried to contact app support I get a web filter because of pornography. I’m sure this is a glitch in our system but meanwhile I need assistance with this app

Awesome app

Doing this for the freebie on

United States

This is a stellar, user friendly app. And if there were any way to operate two puppets per scene, it would be that much better for it! Ifffff possible!

Keeps crashing

I can’t rave enough about this app. It’s so amazing to each how creative your kids can be. My girls (ages 6 & 9) love to draw and tell stories....and now they can animate!
