Its open source, free. It allows you to create 2d-animation, drawn on computer (not flash).
Received a wacom bamboo pen tablet for my birthday from a dear group of friends so I think it seems reasonable to finally try this program out... this weekend! :)

Also open source, free. 3D-animation program. Looks hella developed and advanced, I'm excited and also very very intimidated by all the technicalities lol... My vertebrate biology professor recommended it to me, of all people! He uses it to animate some mechanism in vocalization in frogs. Nice.

Hopefully I can make time for trying both out! But I have a feeling I have to let go of ceramics club. x(
