SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif, Jan. 26 -- e frontier today announced the release of MotionArtist 4 for Windows, an upgrade to the company's inexpensive and easy-to-use Flash animation software.

MotionArtist 4 greatly expands its built-in content over previous versions of MotionArtist, and now includes over 1500 ready-to-use animations, characters, backgrounds, borders, buttons and special effects to choose from. This huge content library offers users unlimited choices to "drag-and-drop" content for easy play back.
MotionArtist does not require knowledge of web design, Flash software or action scripting. An editable timeline simplifies the creation and the integration of multiple Flash animations, motion graphics and MP3/WAV files. Web professionals will appreciate the rapid prototyping tools in MotionArtist 4, which provide the easiest way to produce fully animated custom banner ads.
