Hi, is there any reason why the 2.0.1 update does not seem to be available for buyers of 2.0? My download shows files dated 21. Aug. 2018, which is before the mentioned 2.0.1 update. Or is this correct? Thank you!
In the downloads section you always get the latest version. Just redownload and install and the changes will take effect.
This is a great product, thank you for putting it out there. I have a question about modifying backgrounds, I want to make the bus at the bus stop into a tram, but I can’t seem to add wheels. Oh, and when I edit any object in AI, the object is below the canvas, what is happening to cause that?
Hi, sorry for the late reply, please reach out to us via help@dp669.com and we will support you directly.
Absolutely brilliant product, works as expected and is extremely easy to use. Highly recommended. I hope the author will add more backgrounds and options in future paid versions. Thanks!
Thanks so much!

hey , how do i move the character from one side to other like walking?
Hi. Is it possible to animate the character’s mouth and pretend that he is speaking? Thank you.
Yeah thats possible. There is a gesture called “Talking” which you can use for that.
Absolutely delighted with this product. Amazing functionality. Love it.
Thanks Dom!
Hello, how can I change from a caracter to an other ?
Do you mean using a 2nd character or changing one into another?
changing one into another and keeping position, scale etc…
Try duplicating the caracter into the next frame and change its poperties (clothing, skin, etc) into whatever you need. This way you can retain the old look while ending up with a new outfit.
yes that work most f the time but I can’t swith from female to male for exemple
Please email us your case to help@dp669.com with a screenshot and a detailed description of what you are trying to achieve.
whats new with the august update?
We just added eye color control: https://youtu.be/FcPyTYbQomY
Hi, great idea .. is this project work with fcpx ?? no problem with editing ??
Hi there, yes, it is made for Final Cut Pro. No problems but if you face one, we are there to help.
Thank you, hope i’ll give you a great feedback.
is it possible to make the charasters speak ? (I haven’t seen mouth expression)
Yeah, but you need to do some work in order to do that: https://youtu.be/eFPRLMFfotQ
Thanks, works great !! How do I change a character design (like color or hair style) once it’s used in loop and the all movie. Do I have to change all the parameters by hand one clip by one or is there a way to copy past ?
Yes, we’ve made a separate tutorial just for that scenario: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2Pgq_x_de8
I’ve seen this video and that would be perfect for customisation if needed. My issue is if I need to change the hair for example in a movie. Do I need to change on every clip for the character on the timeline ?
[Title > Brightly-Environment > Cinema] -> This template does not work well.

Is AE version available like this?
Unfortunately not yet, but there are many explainer toolkits for AE by other authors, we recommend “pixity”, search for it!
Grate job ! I wish you happy sales !
Cheers, Abbie!
Can we redesign the character?
how to redesign the character and background but still can do the animation. please help, if you have video tutorial, that will be very helpful.
Hi wangnei, please reach out to us on hello@dp669.com and we will provide you with help!
Hi guys, how can I change shape, size and structure of body parts, face of the characters and other backgrounds and objects? 
Hi, it’s possible if you go into the individual components. However, we are currently working on Version 2.0 which will be released by monday, much better looking characters and backgrounds!
Basically I want to change shapes and parts in general just to give an unique style. Does the application to make those changes Apple Motion?
Looking forward to the new edition and may Brightly be a huge success
Hi Torelly,
Version 2 of Brightly is vastly improved, now you can actually change some shapes like the heads within Motion as we are using the internal shape functionality. Furthermore all assets are in linked Smart layers via Illustrator -> Photoshop -> Motion allowing you to make changes or change the characters or their accessoires entirely in realtime!
Update is coming very soon, possibly this weekend!
Thanks!
1. Would be even better if we could have sliders (also using the shape tool) on Final Cut inspector to modify the shape of eyes, nose, arms, legs, hands, head, hair and other body parts (and save our own customized characters). This feature could be kind of a game changer.
2. I hope you are also including more props, icons and a variety of simple backgrounds.
3. An idea to help you. Do you think you could offer Brightly on Apple Store?
Think about that and next week I’ll come back to check the new update!
1. That’s a great suggestion and we will consider it for the following update(s) for sure. But as you can imagine, it’s quite tricky and time consuming to get this all 100% perfect.. well and Apple Motion is also a bit “funky” under the hood, we often encounter weird issues that take time to work around, things that would be no brainers in AfterEffects for example.
2. Yes, like above: the roadmap is packed with ideas and more items will make their way into this pack, currently working on a 3D-Popup book extension for Brightly.
3. We cannot sell outside Envato at this point but we appreciate your suggestion!
Super thanks!
The new version is out!
Much better indeed! What are the specs of your computer and how long it takes to render/export one minute?
You should have a Macbook Pro or iMac from around 2013 or 14 onwards, 8GB RAM. Rendertime really depends on how many elements you use simultaneously.
Hi Senja,
1. How long it will take to render the “love story”? (what mac are you using? Processor? Graphic Card?)
2. Within a 1 minute video we would need to change the facial expressions of the character many times. How we achieve that?
3. Are you planning to include several more animations /gestures/poses and facial expressions for the characters?
4. Would be possible to give for animations /gestures/poses better expressions?
5. Would be possible to use audio to make lip sync?
Speak soon and many thanks for the new tutorials for customization!
Hi Torelly,
1. We use various different Macs, but mostly a 2012 Macbook Pro with 8BG RAM and it renders sufficiently fast.
2. Check out the tutorial video at 12:43 https://youtu.be/heMPKydKS_Y?t=763
3. With version 2 we just pushed a major overhaul of all Characters and their outfits. But yes, for future updates we are planning to bring in children and animals as well.
4. What do you mean by “better expressions”?
5. It comes down to how well you are able to use the toolkit but generally speaking: yes it is possible.
You can also change the outfits, we just uploaded a new tutorials just for that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2Pgq_x_de8
Hope that helps!
Non Funziona
Hi, can you email us a screenshot of the problem to hello@dp669.com? Hola, ¿puedes enviarnos una captura de pantalla del problema a hello@dp669.com?
Is there any way I can get a sample of this project so that I can test it before I buy?
Unfortunately there is no sample but check out the tutorial video to see how it functions in production: https://youtu.be/AizaiamThlU
So close to buying. I think it’s great value….character update would be soooo good. In the, scenes or environments. Is it possible to lose the palm trees for example? I don’t use apple motion, but is this something that would need to be done there? I am familiar with after effects though.
Yes, we re bringing the Characters closer to what the other best Explainer packs are offering, simplifying the backgrounds as well. I am sure you will love V2 so much you will start changing over to Final Cut!
Hi again and thanks for the reply. Can you answer my other question about if it’s possible to just remove the palm trees from the pre-made environment? Can this be done in fcpx? Also, and this is quite important for me. Will I be able to make the character lay down as if they are in an ‘ironman’ position?
sorry for another message. Do you think I would be able to position the character to squat. I’d like to use this as part of an explainer video for a sporting movement. Thank you.
Hi, we can customize the version for you with removed palmtrees and squatting characters. Email me at hello@dp669.com and I will give you the specifics!
