I learnt so much from this in just under 30 minutes, covering more ground than those previous 62 videos did in 3 and a half hours. Jones, below, is the tutorial you need if you're trialing Harmony. Learn Toon Boom Harmony in 30 minutes - Even if you've never animated before! There were still more videos to watch but, after 62 videos, I still hadn't really learned the basics of putting together a scene, animating it and then exporting it to a video file. I spent three days following the tutorial videos in order,watching 62 individual videos with a running time of 3 and a half hours before I decided I needed to look elsewhere. If you need to learn Harmony fast, I cannot recommend these tutorials based on my own experience. This lead me to a bunch of video tutorials originally released for Harmony 12 but still very relevant to Harmony 14. Specifically the ones linked from the software's welcome screen. Helped me learn some of the drawing tools.īeing a visual person I gravitated towards Harmony's video tutorials. These are not the tutorials you're looking for.Īlthough, at first glance, Harmony looks difficult to learn, with it's User Interface covered in icons for all manor of things, the basics can be learned very quickly. I did learn enough to see Harmony is definitely a formidable tool but at the same time, it can be completely overwhelming if you don't get the right introduction and pathway into the learning process. In 21 days it's hoped you'll get a feel for what Harmony has to offer and be inspired to purchase a subscription. It's likely that will be your experience too. Unfortunately I was barely able to scratch the surface of what Harmony has to offer in the time I was able to devote to learning the basics.

I should say I wasn't expecting to learn everything but I was hoping to get an insight into the Harmony features that would make a compelling argument for me to adopt the software as my preferred 2D animation studio. I think I managed about five or six full, non-consecutive days, before writing this review.

The first hurdle is, who has 21 days to learn anything? It's more likely you'll get maybe five to seven non consecutive days to learn as much as you can before your trial expires. If it inspires you to know more then this review will tell you what's in store when it comes to trialing the product for yourself. Watch Toon Boom's promotional video below. With virtually no prior knowledge of Harmony, how much could I seriously learn within 21 days to be able to say this is the tool for you? To be clear, I'm not setting out to review features and compare them to other animation software I've used because Harmony is quite a complex animation studio. Will it be enough to answer my two previous questions and is a 21 day trial enough for you to make a decision as well?

Toon Boom were kind enough to give me a 90 day Harmony Premium license for this review (Harmony is also available in Essentials and Advanced versions) but I thought, since they offer a free 21 day trial, I'll give myself that to write this review.
