Pivot Animator for Mac lets you develop 2D stick-figure sprite animations. The controls are simple enough to use.

The current version of Pivot will only run on Windows. However, you can use Boot Camp to run Pivot on a Mac with a recent version of OS X.

Good features

When working with the program, the stick figure is positioned in the middle of the work environment.  The timeline can be used to preview the animation based on the sequence of the frames. To learn more about the program, there is a help manual available online.

Controls

The red buttons let you control the working environment and the position where you drag the stick figure to. Other controls include flipping the figure, seeing onion skins, mirroring the figure, changing the figure color, and raising or lowering the selected figure.

The selected figure can be scaled or joined with another one. The opacity can be adjusted, and the frames can be pasted, deleted, or copied. When you’re ready to play the animation, you can have loop mode activated to keep the frames recycled. You can include a customized background picture that is in GIF, PNG, JPG, or BMP format.

Stick Figure Builder

You can create your own stick figures by using the circles and lines options. Other options include thickness adjusting, segment duplication, static generation, and more.

Export

The program lets you save and export in PIV format. This lets you import and edit your stick figure creations in the future. If you want to export in a different format, you can choose GIF, JPEG, PNG, or AVI as well. This lets you use them on web pages as image or video content.

Animation Creator

Pivot Animator for macOS does not have as many features as Adobe Animate or Autodesk Maya, but it has easy to use controls. People with any experience level will find the program to be comfortable to use. The results are impressive too.
