Hi,

I work for a Media company in India, we have used HoBSoft web application to frame lively animation.

Indeed the drawing directly on the movie was impressive feature, even non-designer could use it.

We have done some Animated lectures on law of attraction using this application for a client. So we went out of score of games and used this for educational lectures too.

Congratulations to Estudio Mariscal and the whole team.
