With software like [[RETAS]] [[UbiArt Framework]] and [[Adobe After Effects]], coloring and compositing can be done in less time.{{citation needed|date=April 2013}}
 
Various approaches have been developed<ref name="Pile"/>{{rp|38}} to aid and speed up the process of digital 2D animation. For example, by [[vector graphics editor|generating vector artwork]] in a tool like [[Adobe Flash]] an artist may employ software-driven automatic coloring and [[tweening|in-betweening]].

Programs like [[Blender (software)|Blender]] or [[Adobe Substance]] allow the user to do either 3D animation, 2D animation or combine both in its software allowing experimentation with multiple forms of animation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.blender.org/|title=blender.org - Home of the Blender project - Free and Open 3D Creation Software|website=blender.org|language=en|access-date=2019-04-24}}</ref>
