PAPERANIMATIONLAB

Terms for the local creative tools

Clear guidelines on tool usage, local browser storage, user-supplied media rights, and client deliverables.

Ownership of your uploaded media

You retain 100% full ownership and copyright of any photography, graphics, or text you import into the editor. Exporting an animation from PaperAnimationLab does not grant rights to third-party assets you don't own.

Local storage & project backups

Browser storage is designed for local convenience, not as a permanent cloud vault. Always click 'Save Project' to download .paperlab.json archives of important work onto your local hard drive.

100% Free Creative Access

The current web studio, paper physics engines, and motion presets are completely free to use without subscriptions, watermarks, or credit card requirements.

Export compatibility across editing software

All files are exported client-side according to your browser's supported hardware encoders. Test your exported ProRes, WebM, or PNG sequences on your target NLE timeline (Premiere, DaVinci, Final Cut) before beginning client deliveries.
