Why bringing 2D into a 3D game engine may change the animation industry? | FMX 2022

Discover the very human adventure of Praxinos and its team, and how together they will achieve their ultimate goal: making the animation software "Odyssey".
In late 2018, a small group of 2D animation experts discovered the capabilities of the 3D real-time software Unreal Engine. The small group saw a huge potential in it for the animation industry, and decided to found Praxinos with the goal of designing an animation software that would combine their knowledge in the field of 2D with the power of Unreal Engine.
The challenge is bold, as there is so much to understand and learn. In spite of difficult and uncertain beginnings, Praxinos has been able to overcome problems to continue its progress.
