Modyfi was a promising online animation platform, that we used for some of our animations.
But it got bought by Figma and will be discontinued on June 13th.
Too bad start-ups are still building products to be bought out, rather than creating something sustainable. #Modyfi + #Figma

We will happily keep using #Cavalry!

Own your tools—not the other way around. #Modyfi, a platform that once promised “Design without limits”, got acquired by Figma. Users have until June 13 to export their work—except for layered animation files, which can’t be exported at all. This is why we need more software that runs offline.

After some trail and error, we can confirm that #Modyfi also works with fonts that have multiple axes. One just has to assign one axis to the Motion Effect.
This is #PurpleHaze with some Bloom and Shrinkwrap modifiers applied.
Neat detail: direct GIF export. No fussing around with converting movies to Animated GIF.

We bridged our account to #Bluesky with the https://bsky.brid.gy
If everything goes right, this should be the first post that will show up over there.

You see our #VariableFont Electric Blue, animated in #Modyfi using a Chromatic Abberation Lens Distortion.

Playing around with #Modyfi, that does support #VariableFonts now. This shrink-wrap modifier seems destined to be used with #ElectricBlue.
#Animating variable fonts has never been so easy!
