🎬 Make a cartoon in 5 steps
- Drag a character onto the stage — or type a prompt like "angry robot with crown" and hit ✨ Make.
- Click the character, then pick an Emotion (😊 happy, 😠 angry, 🗣 talking…) and an Anim in the inspector: Walk · Run · Jump · Dance · Slap · Wave · Clap… they combine!
- Press + Frame, move things around, add props & speech bubbles, repeat.
- Hit ▶ Play — ToonCraft tweens everything smoothly between frames.
- ⬇ Export as WebM, MP4, GIF or PNG — or save the project to open later.
- 🎬 Disney-style tip: combine Ease (smooth moves), Emotions (talking, crying, laughing), a Hold on key poses, and export at 30fps HD.
🎭 Characters
Click ✏️ on any character card to customize body type, colors, hair, eyes, mouth & accessories. Everything autosaves — no account needed.
😄 Emotions & 🖐 Acts
Emotion sets the face: happy, sad, angry, surprised, scared, sleepy, silly, love, cry, determined or talking (animated mouth). It works with any Anim — smile while running, talk while waving. Acts include walk, run, jump, dance, fly, waddle, wave, point, cheer, clap, slap, kick, bow, sneeze, laugh & swim.
