STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN -- Plotagon, the creative app that allows anyone to tell stories as 3D animated videos, will be at SXSW at booth #1147 from March 13 to 19th, to unveil an exciting new feature. Users will be able to create themselves, their friends, and famous people as 3D animated characters.

About Plotagon
Plotagon is a creative app that allows anyone to tell stories as 3D animated videos. The app, which was released in July 2014, is available on iPhone, iPad, Mac and PC. The app is easy to use: the user chooses the characters and scenes, writes their story in the form of dialogue, and adds sound effects and music all with easy drop down menus and clicks of a button. After the user has finished tweaking the video, it is a matter of pressing play and the app animates the movie automatically – no need for knowledge of animation at all. Behind the scenes, Plotagon takes care of lighting, camera angles, animation, lip-syncing, and editing. Users only need to focus on communicating their stories.
