Did you know that #GIMP's maintainers @zemarmot produce animation films for a living? If possible Libre Art movies. One of them was "What is the Fediverse?", commissioned by @Framasoft, which you may have watched around here!

Cool to see it modified by other langs' communities (TY #ccbysa license) e.g. in Italian (note: we don't speak Italian, just assuming it's a good translation 😃) by @artofstimart https://peertube.uno/w/qKHxZYjWP8m1DrGjLz2e6o

Of course #MadeWithGIMP!

What is the Fediverse?

Help us translate the subtitles on our translation tool. Animation Produced by LILA - ZeMarmot Team Direction & Animation by Aryeom Script & Technology by Jehan Voice by Paul Peterson Licen...

For those who can't afford commercial software, and for those who want full flexibility and extensibility and future-proofing the ability to open their own art work years from now, there's free open source software:

* #Krita: replaces Adobe Photoshop for editing and painting; https://krita.org/

* #Inkscape: multi-page, replaces Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign; great for scientific figures and posters; https://inkscape.org/

* #Gimp: image editor, with layers and transparencies; replaces Adobe Photoshop; https://www.gimp.org/

* #MyPaint: just for painting; https://mypaint.app/

* #FijiSc: for image processing and image analysis, with conventional computer vision techniques and also machine learning. Handles multi-dimensional bioimagery. https://fiji.sc

* #Blender: for 3D animation and video editing; https://blender.org

* #ffmpeg: command-line based video editing; see this page https://ffmpeg.lav.io/ for testing out commands.

I don't use anything else: there's no need. And all of the above are extensively documented.
