BEAT · nascoree.in
Trusted by Animators Worldwide
“We're happy to use BEAT in our small studio. It has proven to be an invaluable tool in many situations! From smooth animation handling with the Tween Machine to the super useful camera tools and motion paths, this add-on has truly improved our workflow. The intuitive interface and features like the Mini Studio Library and temporary locators have allowed us to work with greater precision and efficiency. A true ally for anyone working with animation in Blender on a daily basis!”
“This is a great app which has really helped me adjust from using Maya. It brings across many much needed tools that have really sped up and simplified my workflow. On top of that, the developer added an extra feature to it so it was more accustomed to my workflow, which was really nice of him. Really friendly guy who cares, and continues to give support even after purchase.”
“I've been animating in Maya for years and it was really hard for me to switch from Maya to Blender until I purchased the Beat addon. That made my life different and I highly recommend it for everyone! That is definitely my favorite addon for Blender!”
