FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Crater Software Launches New CTP Pro Version 1.5 and reduces pricing.

 

             

            MONTREAL, September 24, 2002 – Montreal-based, globe-serving software developer CRATER SOFTWARE today announced the launch of CTP Pro version 1.5, the latest version of the company’s flagship software package for complete cartoon production

 

The new CTP Pro version 1.5 provides a complete, cutting-edge animation production toolbox within one very affordable package. 

 

According to Crater Software President, Joe Alonso, "With CTP Pro version 1.5, we have simplified licensing, added features like MP3, flash, and 40 different file import and output file formats, and reduced its list price substantially to $1,299.  We have always looked out for the animation student and independent animator.  With this price reduction we continue to support the animator without breaking any budgets.

We have also released CTP Pro Lite a limited version of CTP with the same ease of use interface and priced it at an affordable $299.”

 

The result: a complete, traditional 2D-animation package that doubles as a powerful authoring tool for web animation.

"In addition, CTP Pro version 1.5 now provides complete compatibility for painted and unpainted image files created using other 2D animation products perfectly integrating into any studio setting.

 And it doesn't stop there.  CTP Pro version 1.5 also includes 30 image filters & special effects, which can be applied to multiple layers simultaneously. Timed image capture for stop motion work, and so much more.”
