                 Animation is a way through which you can show characters and objects live. It is the process of
                 creating the illusion of movement and motion in visual media by displaying a sequence of images
                 in rapid succession. There are many software that helps us to create animation, games, movies and
                 cartoon characters. TupiTube Desk is one of such software, which is freely available and helpful
                 for every person who wants to learn animation. TupiTube Desk is also known as Tupi 2D. It is a 2D
                 animation software that is very helpful for people who are keen to learn animation. It is developed
                 and maintained by the Colombian startup MaeFloresta.
