Nearly 8 years ago, we launched Animaker with one big mission: to equip startups and professionals with an in-house studio to create professional quality videos.
In the years since, we’ve been developing Animaker to deliver on that mission.
From a simple tool to create professional quality Animated videos, we’ve transformed to a complete toolkit that’s required to create studio quality videos in today’s content powered world.
Today, we are Introducing Animaker 3.0 – The Ultimate Swiss Knife of Creativity to help Businesses, Individuals and Creators to create all kinds of videos without having to hire an actual studio.
With Animaker 3.0, we’ve taken the biggest leap ever and reinvented Animaker yet again.
Yes, we’re introducing 20+ new features and 250+ major and minor updates in the App that are truly revolutionary. All of these were developed by our team in spite of the pandemic hitting us head-on.
Now let me walk you through these groundbreaking features that are new in Animaker 3.0.
What’s new in Animaker 3.0?
1. An all New App outfit:
In Animaker 3.0, The User Interface gets a whole new outfit. This is not just a change in the looks of the app. It is a complete Reimagination of the application after doing a lot of research and receiving tons of feedback from our users.
This UI revamp is done with a focus on improving the following three factors.

2. Universal Spilt:
Are you worried about wasting a lot of time in trimming the unwanted portions of your video?
Well, worry no more!
The Universal Split from Animaker 3.0 is here to save your day!
With Universal Split, you can capture the best moments of your video in just a single click.

Universal Split comes in handy when you’re uploading short video clips to Instagram, YouTube or TikTok.
Wait a minute! I can hear what you’re thinking!
Almost all the online splitting/trimming tools do this, then what’s so phenomenal about the Universal Split in Animaker 3.0?
Animaker 3.0 aims to reduce the time and effort you put in creating your videos in every way possible. Therefore, the Universal Split in Animaker 3.0 can literally split EVERYTHING.
Yes, every single asset like Video, audio, characters, animation, text etc used in a video can be split using the universal split.
This helps you to edit your videos 10x faster, making universal split another remarkable feature indeed!
Here’s a clip from the launch event explaining the details of the Universal Split in Animaker 3.0.
3. All new Timeline:
The timeline in Animaker 2.0 was designed to help the users create professional quality videos. However, one has to get some hands-on experience before they can master working with the timeline.
So, we received a lot of feedback from our users to make the timeline simpler. We listened to our users and transformed the timeline to let them create videos like a pro right from the beginning.
Yes, the timeline in Animaker 3.0 is much simpler, yet more capable than the earlier versions of timeline.

4. Advanced Workspace Zoom in & out:
Another feature that a lot of our users have been asking for, is the ability to adjust the workspace to make it look larger or smaller.
Therefore, in Animaker 3.0 we’ve introduced the advanced workspace zoom feature to zoom in and zoom out of the workspace just like the way you want.
This makes it much easier to zoom into a section of the workspace and effortlessly work on the minute details you want to add in a video.
Here’s a clip from the launch event explaining the advanced zoom in and zoom out feature.
5. Sound Wave Editor:
One of the major issues that video creators face while adding music to a video is when the background music overpowers the voice-overs in the video.
This might ruin the experience for the viewers as they cannot follow the narrative in the video.
But without the background music the video might become dull, lacking emotion and pace.
In order to get the perfect volume for the voiceovers and music tracks in your video, we are introducing a new feature in Animaker 3.0 called ‘Sound Wave Editor’
With the Sound Wave Editor, you can control the volume of any audio track that you add to your video. You can fade in and fade out the volume of the music track wherever you want in just a click. This ensures that the volume of each audio track sits right in the sound mix.
Here’s a clip from the launch event explaining the details of the Sound wave editor.
6. 100 new professions:
When we launched Animaker 2.0, we also introduced the revolutionary character builder. This enabled our users to create billions of unique characters. Additionally, we took a small step and introduced around 100 pre-built characters in the library intended to give a formal or a casual look.
The Characters in Animaker was a huge hit among the users and almost 90% of videos created using Animaker at least had a single character in it.
Over time, we expanded the character library further based on the feedback we received from the users. So we introduced characters with different body types which made Animaker 2.0 have a wide range of characters like kids, animals or plus size characters.
But we always want to push our boundaries and give you something more!
So in Animaker 3.0, we’re taking a monumental leap and introducing more than 100 new professional characters, both men and women.
These characters represent the diversity of professions from civil servants to blue collar workers that play a pivotal role in the world.

8. Advanced Collaboration:
A couple of years back when the Covid pandemic hit, the world had moved into a remote working model.
Today, even after 2 years into the pandemic, a lot of organizations follow a remote working model and have globally distributed teams.
Therefore, the need to have proper communication is more important than ever before.
To help these companies create their videos efficiently and collaborate seamlessly with other teammates, we’re introducing the Advanced collaboration feature in Animaker 3.0.

3. Music and Voice Visualiser:
While it may be scientifically impossible to see sound waves, audio visualizers make it possible to visualize the harmonics of the sound and understand the audio better.
But the absence of audio visualisers in most of video editing softwares, makes the users spend on an additional tool which helps them add a visualization.
Therefore, we’ve planned to introduce the Music and Voice Visualizer in Animaker 3.0 so the users can create videos and add music visualizations all in one place. This makes Animaker 3.0 a complete tool.
What makes Animaker standout from the other audio visualizers that are already there in the market is its simplicity.
