Xpressionist

Evolution

Xpressionist 3.5 is the advanced scripting engine from ramjac Software for the Electric Image Animation System (EIAS). It enables the user to script every animatable parameter that is available in the EIAS Animator. Uses range from basic object parameter linking - like advanced constraints or set driven keys to the creation of custom interfaces, controller objects for your animation needs or custom programming of entire animation software modules for the most demanding animation and simulation needs.

It uses ENOCH as an expression language. ENOCH was developed as a flavour of C and was designed to be easy to understand an to learn. As a unique feature in the industry Xpressionist offers direct compiling of ENOCH scripts. The animator can bypass the bottlenck of a life translation of his script by the interpreter of Xpressionist, but instead compile an executable programm of his script, that will do the same task in a fraction of the time other systems need for the same task. That allows for the programming of custom runtime applications and makes Xpressionist a complete and full featured software development environment.

Xpressionist comes with an additional Plugin "Kontrolleur". Kontrolleur gives users a basic but fully customizable interface to drive their scripted animation. Xpressionist 3.5 also offers an SDK for 3rd party plugin developers, who want to use or better communicate with Xpressionist. Xpresssionist gets used all over the world in day to day animation production and gets refined every minute. Our roadmap for XP4 include many new fatures that get tested on our inhouse builds and mature for our next release. Stay tuned for more
