Plotagon

Plotagon is a visual tool for creating animated videos for fan fiction, original narratives, social stories, training, education, and advertising. Users arrange ideas in a storyboard, then generate videos from a timeline containing audiovisual material. The listed creative controls cover scenes, dialogue, actor actions, camera angles, intertitles, audio, voice recording, and emotion animations. Its library contains more than 200 virtual locations, alongside a multilingual voice library; creators can also record their own voices. Plotagon offers Studio Mobile, Story Mobile, and Studio Desktop, the classic Windows app. Studio features listed as absent from Story include more than two actors in supported scenes, independent actor emotes, newer multilingual voices, and an ad-free experience. Android, iOS, and Windows apps are available. Selected scenes and character tools can be used without a subscription, while other content and advanced features require one. Listed plans include Academic at $3 a month and Standard at $7 a month. Mobile apps need internet access for subscription checks and downloads.
