IPO drivers in Synfig
This video shows how the equivalent of blender’s IPO drivers technique could be natively implemented in Synfig Studio. Example file: ipo-drivers-synfig.sifz.

Scene 01 – Draft
Single draft keyframe for the first scene of demo showing Ivan laying on the ground.
Scene 12 – Animatic
Here’s the animatique for the 12th scene of demo. The original 6 positions of human figure were drawn in Pencil. That allows us to set timing properly and to get the idea of the motion in general. Then we imported keyframes in Synfig Studio and

Katana Model
A 3D model of Marya Morevna’s katana was created for scene 24 of demo storyboard. Download original model: katana.blend. License: Creative Commons Attribution 3.0.
Helicopter 3D model
Here’s layout of helicopter. The model is not completely tuned, but it already could be used. Other stuff could be fixed during the animation process. Helicopter state is controlled by IPO drivers. Watch it in action: ipo-drivers-demo.ogg.
