"Object Animator's Toolbox" was a course and website on Graphy by Michael Huang teaching how to animate object shows using Adobe Animate. The course had six chapters and cost US$19.99, or GB£18.99. The course started on August 21, 2020, after being announced in "Fashion For Your Face!".[1] On the same day of said episode, the first chapter, titled "How Things Move", was released. It used footage from the Battle for Dream Island series, while also using new characters who appeared exclusively in this course, who are named Grandfather Clock and Metronome respectively. The Graphy app said there would be a new chapter every week, and the course could be gifted to four friends for free.[2]
Chapter 1 was free for 48 hours, from September 14, 2020, 12:00 PM PDT to September 16, 2020, 12:00 PM PDT.[3]
Graphy underwent restructuring around February 2021 and came back in March 2021; however, this new revamp didn't bring back previous courses, including Object Animator's Toolbox (though for the app, already paid members can still see the course).
The course was archived by several users before Graphy went under construction (see Archives).
All of the chapters were filmed by Cary Huang.[citation needed]
