Pivot Animator is a Windows application specialized in creating 2D stick-figure and sprite animations using a set of straightforward actions. Pivot Animator (formerly Pivot Stickfigure Animator and usually shortened to Pivot) is a freeware application that allows users to create stick-figure and sprite animations, and save them in the animated GIF format for use on web pages and the AVI format (in Pivot Animator 3 and later).
Pivot provides a simple, easy to use interface with a few features. It uses fixed length 'sticks' to ensure size consistency during animation, something which is not as simple to recreate in professional animation software such as Autodesk Maya or Adobe Flash.[citation needed]. Pivot Animator gives you the possibility to save the animation to PIV file format so you can easily import figures for future editing options. Plus, you can export the animation to AVI or GIF file format in order to be used on your webpages, or save it as individual images (PNG, JPEG) with adjustable photo quality and size.
