Smith Micro Software, Inc. Productivity and Graphics group has announced the launch of its social multimedia platform MotionArtistTV, targeted for artists, animators and graphic art enthusiasts. MotionArtistTV combines the open, interactive canvas of HTML5 with convenient content sharing through a social portal. It allows users to view interactive, animated content, connect with fellow artists and users, and share their HTML5 graphics, animations, and multimedia comics created with MotionArtist software.

Free and open to the public, MotionArtistTV allows budding artists to join an open-submission community for animated HTML5 graphics. Once community members create a login ID, they receive a personalized profile for posting their own content and following favorite artists. All members can view, like and comment on other members’ work, as well as create watch-lists of their favorite episodes and series.

MotionArtistTV is the perfect channel for sharing projects created with MotionArtist, a software program that enables users to add motion to comic creations, create HTML5 presentations, and make animated photo shows with ease.

While MotionArtistTV is a free web portal, MotionArtist is available for $49.99.
