Looks great, Tracy!
How would you compare CreateStudioPro to, for instance, Vyond?
All the best

Mind you - this is significantly cheaper than Vyond, it seems :-)

Boom! You hit the nail on the head! It is much cheaper, and more versatile (image below). I was beginning to feel like every video I created with Vyond looked exactly the same.

I find that using real backgrounds helps quite a lot in building unique stories in Vyond. That's mainly what I use it for. That - and short explainer videos.
Once the subscription is up for renewal, I'll look into this. A great plus about Vyond is that it is an online tool. We have to go through a rigorous and expensive software validation process whenever we want to use something new that needs to be installed :-(

How do you find the user experience? Is it easy to learn or do you need to invest a lot of time learning it. Vyond is almost plug and play in my opinion.

I always use free trials to determine if software is easy for me to learn, so I recommend doing that. I agree that Vyond is very easy to work with—I stared with it, back when it was called GoAnimate. Later I switched to Powtoon, which is very similar. I still use Powtoon, because it’s an online subscription, it’s cheaper than Vyond, and it gives me more character and style options. Because I work with multiple clients as a freelancer, I need to be able to create videos that look very different for different clients.
