ANIMATOR

Talk about timing by showing it.

Animation is hard to explain in writing. Open your window, draw the motion to measure, put versions side by side, and let comments stay where they belong.

Compare versions and leave notes on them.

A version arrives and turns on the table.

The model page, piece by piece. Scroll and it falls into place.

The team watches and, if you want, takes the mouse.

1Screen sharing

Talk by showing.

Share your animation program's window and the team watches live. Comments flow in the room's chat; there's no audio yet.

2Drawing

Write down motion to measure.

Jump arc, glide, slide: the measure piece shows height and time on the drawing, with the table beside it.

Beside the last version.

Open two versions on one screen and the models turn together. The decision is Approve or Request changes.

Tasks, scene by scene.

Every scene's task is on the board. Who's working, what's waiting for approval, what's done: at a glance.

Your programs stay the same.

Devchaos doesn't replace your program, it stands beside it. Whichever one is open shows on your Studio card; there are 50 programs on the list, and you can add yours if it's missing.

Questions

Can you comment on video?

For now, marks go on pictures and 3D models. Video plays in the message, but marks on video aren't there yet.

Is there voice chat?

Not yet, it's coming soon. Voice rooms and camera are on the way. For now you use the room's text chat during a screen share.

Can the team see what I'm looking at?

You decide. In What your team sees you choose who sees it, and whether that's the program, the file name, the time, screenshots and how often; you can hide a program and set limits by working hours or by project.

Where do our files live?

You choose from three places: the Devchaos server (2 GB per project), a computer left on at the office, or your own cloud storage (such as Cloudflare R2, Amazon S3 or Backblaze).
