Animo

Background

Animo was a traditional animation software package created in 1992 by Cambridge Animation Systems, after the acquisition of another animation software called Compose in Color, which was made by Oliver Unter-ecker. Animo was used for several animated feature films, shorts, and television series, and it powered the UK animation industry until the 2000s as it was used by studios like King Rollo Films, Telemagination, and Cosgrove Hall Films; but it was also used by studios in other countries, most notably Warner Bros. Feature Animation, DreamWorks, and Nelvana. In 2009, Cambridge Animation Systems was acquired by the Canadian company Toon Boom Technologies and has since folded.
