MOTK, a free and open-source toolset for stop-motion and small film/animation teams, is now in public beta. The lineup covers production tracking on the user's own Google Sheets and Drive (browser app plus the original Apps Script edition, both supported), MOTK Shoot for browser-based capture, and MOTK Companion, a local app for camera control, ffmpeg proxies, resumable uploads, and automation. Data stays in the user's own Google account; the tools are free with source published on GitHub. The aim is to lower the entry barrier for newcomers and small studios, coexisting with the professional standards the industry already uses.
