new products: Toon Boom Animate Pro and Toon Boom Manager. Animate
Pro Toon Boom builds upon Animate’s feature set and delivers also
2D-3D integration, as well as scanning options and full compositing
capabilities with 50 built-in special effects.

Toon Boom Manager provides full tracking capabilities to monitor the
