Microsoft Animaker

Many learners of Animation give up learning due to complexity in the Animation Industry. With approximately 12,873,916 animators and 286,100 people employed as Graphic Designers worldwide, their number will increase enormously due to the commonly used tools in our startup. These tools are a combination of Microsoft publisher and Adobe illustrator features, commonly used by graphic designers hence easier to learn. Considering hundreds of millions of people all over the world have Microsoft Publisher already installed in their computers, they can simply upgrade to Microsoft Animaker via internet or disk installation upgrades to become pro animators who earn from it. Tens of millions of animators that use Blender software, which is an open source software will have the opportunity to import their 2D&3D projects into Publisher for further simplification of Advanced Animation. This would also apply to Maya, Adobe Animate, 3ds Max Design, Cinema 4D and many more.

Green screen editing: Hundreds of thousands people across the world, lack enough capital to open a digital photo studio business. Green screen studio equipment are a major requirement for quality image/video editing and image background importation. It would cost an approximately $70-$150 to purchase these equipment that include: Backdrop Support System and green screen editing software. The number of freelance and amateur photographers in my country Kenya is very high as many can’t afford green screen studio equipment. We came up with a technological solution where one does not require to purchase these items for editing while at the same time achieving the same quality results. Our technology accurately erases any form of background without interfering with the front image (object) to be edited giving a perfect transparent background for further editing and background image importation. This technology is cost efficient and easy to use.

Nairobi is a busy metropolitan city with a population of 4,397,073 people as of the year 2020. This has led to a higher demand in the tech business and availability of digital photo studios and Animation studios as well. Our digital solution will lead to opening of more studios in such cities, where higher profits will be made due to our cost effective and easier to use technology. Apart from Nairobi where our team is based, we see the great possibility to reach out to hundreds of thousands of people all across the country. We are targeting 47 different counties which make up our entire country. We are working closely with these Animators and graphic designers, while monitoring their progress to better understand what more to do in advancing our technology.

Microsoft Animaker is a New and unique Animation Software that uses 70% features/techniques of Microsoft Publisher making it easy to learn and use for 2D&3D animation.

We have tested and proven beyond reasonable doubt, the possibility to import both 2Dand 3D Animation characters and scenes from Animation software such as Blender Foundation (open source) and Maya into Microsoft publisher for advanced Animation. We have also introduced Traditional Animation into Microsoft publisher with image sequence tool being the most powerful tool in terms of traditional production. We have also made Traditional Animation technique possible in 3D production through Microsoft Publisher hence faster in rendering.

With Microsoft Publisher, cycles rendering has been simplified hence making it possible to render a 3D movie without necessarily having to purchase render software/external render machines. This will reduce the costs of Animation Movie production.

With this software, one will not need green screen studio equipment to make powerful video effects in the editorial. One will also not necessarily need external rendering machine to render big sized projects in cycles. One will be able to import an entire 2D/3D scene with characters and environments into Microsoft Publisher where Animation will be made simpler and faster to produce. We are currently working on creating codes that would further advance this project.                                                                                We have also produced various Animation videos, both 2D and 3D and this has enabled us prove that there’s less expenditure required in this technique with high quality of work produced in the final outcome. This would yield great returns as the need for this new software is unlimited. Corporates and other Animation software companies would also want to adopt this technique for convenience, hence our potential customers apart from animators. We will make money through online purchases/downloads being made by Movie Production Companies, Animation Software companies, render machine companies and Animation/Photo studios with/without green screen studio equipment.Below are temporary links to some of the animated videos by our new techniques:

Our solution is unique and offers new and easier ways to animate as compared to other Animation software. We were able to achieve this by doing research on what was already on the market and how to come up with a product that would thrive in the already competitive Animation Industry. The global market in the Animation and Design industry is undoubtedly in need of the unique services we offer. With our combination of these easy to use Publisher, Illustrator and blender tools, video rendering has been simplified hence making it possible to render a 3D animation movie without necessarily having to purchase render software/external render machines. This will greatly reduce the costs of Movie production in 2D and 3D animation and the complexity thereof.

Our software offers simplicity in leaning while at the same time easy to access on any computer. With approximately 12,873,916 animators and 286,100 people employed as Graphic Designers worldwide, their numbers will increase enormously due to the commonly used tools in our startup and convenience on user experience.

Despite the full potential to serve millions of people around the world, we are using our prototype to serve people within our networks for research and testing purposes in Kenya. This has been very useful to us in advancing our product in technological aspects while also comparing it to other existing products in the market.

Our main goal is to partner with Microsoft Company, which is an ideal beneficiary in this new product within the next year. We also aim at selling our cost effective technology to Movie Production companies, Animation studios, Photo studios and other interested parties within the next five years.

One major barrier to our accomplishment would be if Microsoft Company declines to partner with us or invest on our technology. This would give us an alternative to re-brand while recreating another software for the same purpose. This would mean taking longer for us to hit the global market.

We would make alternative plans on our go to market strategy after recreating a similar software. However, our alternative solution to green screen editing would still be operational as it is not a product of Microsoft. We will market and sell the green screen alternative technology to Movie Production companies, Animation studios, Photo studios and other interested parties in the next five years and beyond.

We plan on expanding our solution to all the ServiceNows’ primary markets. The market opportunity for our product in US, Canada, Uk, France, Germany, Netherlands, Australia and Japan is undoubtedly wide and reliable. These are countries which have successfully dominated the market in advanced animation. Our product will defiantly bring about lower cost of production in these countries with higher returns on investment.

Our team comprises of volunteers and professionals who works for Codeinn limited company. We do research on technological advancement and strive together to come up with solutions for the future of tech. We also have trainers in software engineering, mobile app development and coding who train students for three month sessions. 

Our solution team comprises of twelve intellectuals. Five of which are software developers, four animators, and three volunteers with highly significant contribution in advancing our projects.

We are in the best position to deliver this solution as a team based on the high market demand for our new technologies. We confide in the fact that our solutions are unique and target the global market.

We are currently in partnership with Digital Village Africa, Bithub.Africa, Work Pay, JobsKazi, Talinda, RainoTech4Impact,Chap Chap, Lipa Later, Dapper Monkey, Keja Move, Bovic and Bean Interactive.We work with these organizations which give internships and hire students from Codeinn after substantial sessions of learning. This has instilled more confidence in Codeinn students who wish to get jobs after several learning sessions.

Key partners: Microsoft, Digital Village Africa,

Key activities: Globalization of Microsoft Animaker

Value Proposition: $1000,000,000 per anum

Chanels: Movie Production Companies, Animation Software companies, render machine companies and Animation/Photo studios.

We have proved beyond reasonable doubt that there’s less expenditure required in our techniques, with high quality production at the same time. This would yield great returns to our products and services in the global market. Corporates and other Animation software companies would also want to adopt this technique for convenience, hence our potential customers apart from animators. We will generate money through online purchases/downloads being made by Movie Production Companies, Animation Software companies, render machine companies and Animation/Photo studios.

We are applying for grant from digital workforce challenge to boost our operations and further advance our technology. This will also enable us reach out to our global target market. This is in view of how fast the Animation industry keeps growing, hence the need to produce quality production much faster. 

We would like to build bridges with Microsoft Company, in terms of partnership and investment. This will enable us hit the global Market as soon as possible. In the unlikely event Microsoft does not agree to partner with us, we will still be in a position to implement this project with a different name and as an independent software. But we hope to work together with Microsoft to make Microsoft Animaker a global reality.
