StreamShapers Ferryman

About​

StreamShapers Ferryman is designed to convert Lottiefiles animations into HTML graphic templates. Like a ferryman safely navigating between shores, the StreamShapers Ferryman bridges the gap between AfterEffects animations and HTML graphic templates.

New Features: The generated HTML graphic templates are compatible with CasparCG and SPX Graphics Controller by now. It provides a suite of tools for analyzing and testing the converted animations, making it an essential utility for broadcasters and designers.
