Many hours of detailed work are required to create just a few seconds of animation. There is a lot of practice involved as well as theoretical & technical knowledge to come up with a good quality animation, so we thought, what would happen if anyone, in short time, could express themselves with nice and funny animations. Thats when the baby was born, it has been a long but fulfilling journey since the beginning.
What at first started as a creative tool, mutated into something even simpler and necessary: a unique way to communicate, where your day-to-day (friends, school, activities) come to life, in an eye catching animated world.
Express feelings, joke with friends or blow up your creativity in a new and unique way.
...as we say, is MUCH MORE than emojis, enjoy!
A simple way...to share anything.
WHY?
Each day content evolves to be more visual…
…and it’s CREATED AND PERSONALIZED by ourselves
