Turn a quiet bedroom into your own tiny animation set in Stick Studio. Pose the gold Alpha and coral Beta by dragging their glowing joints, then capture each position as a frame to build a playful stick figure animation. Add onion skinning to compare neighboring poses, try a quick wave preset, and watch your scene come to life at a speed that feels just right. This beginner-friendly animation studio makes frame-by-frame creativity easy to explore, whether you're staging a quick greeting or a whole mini moment. Ready for another creative experiment?

How to Play Stick Studio
Start by looking over the bedroom scene and choosing Alpha or Beta. Drag a figure's glowing root joint to move the whole character, or pull the head, elbows, knees, hands, and feet to adjust its pose. When you move a hand or foot, the connected limb follows to help create a natural bend. Once the pose looks good, click + FRAME to capture it. Select frames in the filmstrip to revisit them, use COPY to duplicate a pose, or choose DEL to remove one. Click WAVE for a sequence of alternating wave poses, then capture frames to build the gesture. Turn on onion skinning to see nearby poses as translucent guides. Press PLAY to preview your animation, choose a speed from 1 to 10 FPS, and toggle looping for a repeating scene. Use STOP to finish playback or reset the studio to start fresh.
Tips & Tricks for Stick Studio
Make each movement easy to read by changing a few joints at a time instead of shifting the whole figure. Add small pose changes across several frames for smoother motion, and use onion skinning to spot sudden jumps before you press PLAY. COPY is handy when you want to build on a pose without starting over, while the WAVE preset gives you a quick base for a friendly greeting. Try slower playback while checking timing, then raise the FPS when you're ready for a snappier preview. Stage Alpha and Beta together to give the bedroom scene a little story.
