1. Welcome: Hello, my name is Stata and I've been using Procreate Dream software for a while now, and based on my experience, I'll be teaching you Procreate Dreams. Procreate Dreams is an all new animation app packed with powerful tools that anyone can use, Create engaging hand drawn animations, motion graphics, and enhance them with photos, videos, and sound. In this course, I'll be teaching you all the tips and tricks to learn procreate dreams better and bring illustrations to life. We'll be discussing with various ways to animate illustrations in procreate dreams. Like tumbling, twirling, moving, spinning, rotating looping, and spaying animations, et cetera. So goodbye for now and see you in the class. 2. Objective: My goal for the course is to equip you with the skills you need to create your animations in procreate dams as you fall along in the course, you're going to be creating simple animations from scratch. I'll also talk about how you can take your procreate artwork into procreate dreams. See you on the first lesson. 3. About this Class: This course consists of two parts. Firstly, we will discuss about procreate reams, interface and gestures. And where, which function is located so that we can work fluently in procreate dreams, we will also learn what exactly animation is and what are all the possibilities we have. Within procreate dreams, I will show you three methods of animation. Animation with key framing, frame by frame animation, and a new performing mode in Procreate Dreams, for which everyone is super excited about, We'll be learning about how to share your animation. Import procreate artwork into procreate dreams, importing procreate brushes, importing audio into animation, et cetera. The second part of this course consists of giving your hands on experience with animation by doing live animation using all the methods Procreate Dreams has for us. I'll also be sharing some other animations to give you an idea about different animations we can explore in procreate dreams. At the end, I will also be sharing a procreate dreams sheet sheet, where I have mentioned all the shortcuts of gestures which we will be using on a regular basis in the Procreate Dreams software. All right. Did I make you curious enough about the course? So without further ado, let's jump right into it, see on the class. 4. Procreate Dreams Interface: In this video, I'm going to give you a tour of the procreate dreams interface so you will know how to navigate around as you create our animations. When you open up procreate dreams, you will step into the theater and this is where all your movies are. If you're familiar with procreate, it has the gallery of artworks and Gene has a theater of movies. Here you can see I've got a whole bunch of movies in my theater. A couple things you can do in the theater. You can long hold on a project and you can see different options have appeared, like you can rename Duplicate, Share Copy, or delete the project. Over here, there are two different options where you can store the files on your cloud drive or you can store files on my ipad. Over here, you have got the stylet butter where you can select different movies. But most importantly, we have this little plus sign in the upper right and we type that to create a movie. You can swipe all down to get these different templates in different sizes and resolution. But for now, let's choose the white screen template. There are some options before we jump into a project. Here under the three dots, you can tap that and you can set your default frames per second and duration. Let's go ahead and just set those at the default, then let's go ahead and tap empty. And that will take us into the Procreate Dreams interface. The interface is divided into three parts. Up here is the stage, then in the middle we have the tool bar. Then down here is the time line. Starting up here is your movie place. But we also have outside stage that we call the backstage. This is called the gray area, is called the backstage. This is the non visible area around the stage. Elements that are in this area would be out of the frame. And it's great to have all extra working area because you can have something over here and then bring it into your movie and go back out and we will get to play with that. The other thing in the stage is this the time code. You can actually tap it to access some different options for editing your en, skin and setting the background color of your project. Don't worry about that for now. We will definitely revisit that soon. Next up we have the tool bar, which is this bar that goes across the middle, starting over on the left hand side, we have these little rectangles that will just take us back out to the theater. Let's go back into our project, and then this is your movie name. By clicking on it, different options have appeared. Here you have movie properties. You can set frames per second and the duration of the movie, as well as the resolution. There are some different options. Under stage playback, this is also really important. This is where you could export your movies. But we will come back to that once we have made some animation. And then there is some other preferences. We have some different options like draw and paint gestures, history, et cetera. Okay, let's go back into a movie then We have some tones over here on the right inside. The first icon is the play button. The next one is the little circle, and that is how you enter the performing mode, which is how you can record movements, actions, effects in real time. We'll get to play around a lot on that. Next we have the cycle. This is the select button, you can cut, copy, paste, duplicate tracks as you wish. Next we have is the Draw and Paint mode. If you tap on it, you will enter into the draw and paint mode. You can draw characters, et cetera. Now we can see we have this little plus sign. If you tap on it, you can add different tracks, photos, videos, text files, et cetera. Now suppose if I want to add a file, you can, you can select any of the file you want to import. Like if I select this tap on open, you can see the file will import. And you can see the file has already been imported into your procreate reams. Let's go ahead and visit the draw and paint mode. If you tap on it, you can see some different essential tools had there, like your brushes. If you tap on it, you can see all the different brush sets have appeared. Then we have the smutch tool eraser, we have layers option, and we also have the color picker. If you'd be using procreate. You can see that these options are also similar to procreate. So if I want to choose a color, if I choose a blue color, let's draw something here. Then I can select a brush out here. Let's go for the chalk brush, and I will draw a simple circle. If I want to increase the size of the brush, you can select here, you can drag for up and down, and also for the opacity. Right? One thing I want to show you right of the bat is when you are drawing in procreate, as you are not confined to draw within the bounds of this stage, which is the little gray rectangle, you can actually draw anywhere inside or outside the stage. You can draw over, you can draw over here, you can draw overhare, like I've mentioned before. You can draw elements over here and then move them into the screen. When you animate, you can draw like really long backgrounds and then scrawl across to make some camera movements. All right, so you can see we have created a big mess. We have to undo them. In order to undo, just take two fingers and tap on the screen. This will undo the objects. Now, in order to redo, we have to take three fingers. Tap on the screen like this, and this will redo. Then you can take two fingers and you can hold them down for a continous redo, that will go all the way back really fast. Then of course, you can take three fingers down for a continous redo. I think those gestures are some of the ones you will probably use in procreate dreams. But in the next lesson, I'll be teaching you even more gestures for working in procreate dreams. Okay, let's go back to drawing. Let's choose a color. I'll draw another circle. Let's choose opal color, And choose a brush. I'll take the same brush, increase the size, and I'll draw another circle here. Now when we do that, you notice something has filled up in a timeline area. And this is a track. This track is filled up with a piece of content. When it comes to procreate dreams, you can think of tracks as containers that whole content, your tracks are the entire duration of this movie. You can fill it with multiple pieces of content. You can adjust the duration of this piece of content by just dragging the edge of the piece of content. Or you can just long press the content and you can choose filled duration. You can see the entire time line has been filled. Likewise, you can also repeat the same with this content. You can choose full duration. Now in order to fill up the entire time line till here, you can choose one of the edge of the time line and just track like this, the same. You can repeat with this as well. You can see the entire time line has been filled up. Now you can also move content forward or backward in the time line like this. By long pressing on a content, you can move forward or backward. You can also move the track up or down like this. It is good to know that tracks that are at the top will be in front of the tracks that are at the bottom. Now if you tap and hold on a piece of content, some options have appeared. Now you can rename a piece of content. You can highlight blend modes, mask fill, duration, like we have just already did. You can choose Track options and you can delete the content. Here are three different options, Cut, copy, and paste. But let's go ahead and exit back to the gallery. You have this little symbol with the rectangles here. Just tap on it like this. You will exit into the gallery. In the next video, we're going to talk a little bit more about gestures. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. Bye bye. 5. Gestures: In this video, we're going to learn about gestures. You have already learned about two finger tap to undo and three finger tap to redo. Let's learn some more important gestures which are used in procreate reads. We are going to open up one of the finished animation. This is including in your class resource. Also, we're going to open up one of the finished. Let's open this. This animation has several tracks filled with content. Let's learn about zooming around here in the timeline. You can take two fingers and do a pinch to spread and zoom in or out like this. If you take three fingers and slide them horizontally like this, yeah, this will adjust the timescale. This will show a lot of time. And then this way we will zoom into a short amount of time. Like this. You can see the frames have appeared like this. You can zoom out, you can take three fingers and move them vertically like this. This will adjust the vertical scale. It just make a little easier to see your tracks and everything else. Then if you do a quick pinch gesture like this, this will fit the entire movie onto the screen. You can see your entire time line area and all your tracks. If you keep double tapping, eventually you get to maximum zoom. Like this, Like this, you can see you have entered into the frames frames. Okay, now let's go back. We'll do a quick pinch out to get all the way back out. And let's go back to the time line. Okay, so you can see the entire timeline has appeared and we have exit into our time line. Got it? In order to o, we'll take three fingers like this, vertically and horizontally. Now let's talk about this little icon which is called as the playhead. Now you can move it back and forth to scrub through your movie. If you zoom in into the time line to a certain area, then your playhead will play only up to this portion. Like if I hit on play, it will only play from here till here. And it will loop in again and again. It shows it adjusts the timescale and which is really great for previewing just a portion of animation, so you can focus it on what you are doing. You can also take back the playhead and flick it back like this. Or this will go all the way back to the C thing and then it will start your movie playing like this, as you can see. Now take four finger and tap it on the screen to enter into the full screen mode. Now take a finger and you can scrub back and forth on your movie. You can tap down here. You can see the video is under your control. You can see here are some controls to the interface. You can tap four fingers again to exit from the full screen mode. Now let's zoom in and talk about this playhead. If you see a little clapboard symbol, you can tap the playhead and get the key frame pop over. And these are some tools used to create animation, which we will get into more later then if you long press on a piece of content like this, you get the content pop over. And there are some options to cut, copy, duplicate, rename, highlight, blend, mask, fil, duration, track options and delete content. That's all about gestures. They do take a little practice to get used to, but once you get them, they become second nature. They're also useful for working in procreate dreams. Now you have a really good overview of what the procreate dreams interface looks like and how to use gestures. In the next video, I'm going to introduce three key ways of animating in procreate dreams. And then we are going to start with animation. Good, now see you in the next lesson. 6. 3 Keys ways of Animation: In this video, we are going to be discussing about the three key ways of animation in procreate dream software. Here they are number one, frame by frame animation. Second is key framing. And third is using the performing mode in the procreate dream software. Hail. We are going to have a little sneak peek of all the three ways of animation in procreate dreams we'll be discussing in depth in our next lessons. Let's begin. First is frame by frame animation. I'm going to choose this now. In order to do frame by frame animation, you have to enter into the draw and paint mode, which is this. Now you can see different objects have appeared. Now, in order to swipe down, we will just drag, we will enter into the draw and paint mode and the flip Ok will appear in front of you. Here you can see different frames are created one by one. And this is what frame by frame animation looks like. All right, let's move forward to the next key way to animate in procreate dreams is animation by key framing. I would choose this one. Key frames essentially points on a timeline that defines that the state of your content, where it is, what shape it is, what effect it has, et cetera. We would have a key frame that says, I look like this here. And then another key frame here says that I look like this here. Then the software will run smoothly transitioning those two states. So it would move it across, it would change the effect, or change the side. But it would smoothly transition one key frame to the next. This is a great way to create precise movements in your animations. For example, in this project I have created the blinking effect in the eyes of the characters using the key framing animation. If I play it, you can see the blinking of the eyes. Okay, let's move forward to the last method of animating in procreate dreams is by using the performing mode in the Procreate Dreams application, which is a very brand new innovative feature launched by the Procreate Dreams. Basically, let me show you, I would choose this project. If I enter into the performing mode, which is this icon, take the play all the way to the beginning and click on the performing mode. If I want to just swing or make circles of the, it will record a long wise C. I'm making few circular movements here on the project and meanwhile my timeline is already playing like it has already recorded. Now if I hit pause and I flick back the playhead, you can see all the movements have been recorded. It's a great way to create very organic, expressive movements. And it's also a great way to just quickly animate something because you are doing it by feel. I love animating through procreate performing feature because you really just get into a feel of it and it's just a fun experience. Those are the three ways that you can create animation in procreate reams. And in the following three lessons, we're going to spend each lesson going through those three types of animation in detail. First, we will explore performing. And we're going to create an animation using performing feature. And then we are going to explore key framing manually. We will do three key framing and then finally, we will explore frame by frame animation. For those three projects, we are going to be drawing our own subjects to animate. But I don't want you to worry too much about the art making drawing process. We're just going to be drawing simple things to get ourselves familiar with these three types of animation. I'm very excited to get started animating with you. See you in the next lesson. Bye bye. 7. Performing a Leaf: Welcome to our first follow along animated lesson. In this video, we're going to be explaining one of the three key ways of animating appropriate dreams Using performing tool. This is a really awesome tool, Appropriate dreams. It allows you to capture movements and apply effects in real time. It will capture movements. It is just a lot of fun and it's a great way to very quickly animate something. But also it lets you create very organic movements because you are doing it by hand. So I'm really excited to show you cool things that you can do with the performing feature. Let's get started. Here we are in the theater. Let's go ahead and start a new movie project. We are going to tap this little plus sign. Let's just choose four K white screen and we're going to add empty. We are in the stage right now. Okay, let's draw something. We are going to enter into the draw and paint more. Let's draw a leaf. I'm going to choose a brush studio pen. Let's choose the color soft green. And let's draw a leaf right here. Make sure the opacity and the brush size are according to your requirements. And let's draw something. Okay, that's perfect for me. Let's fill the color, okay? Okay. As you can see, if you zoom in, there are still gap right here. I don't know. But hopefully, procreate dreams will fit and correct this as well. Okay, I'm fine. Okay, let's choose erasordraw strokes right here to add effects. Okay, that's perfect for me. Let's just leave this a curve. Let's draw circle right here. Okay, that's fine for me now. Now what we'll do is we will choose a darker shade of green to add some shading. Okay, I'm going to choose the chalk brush and I'm going to add a layer. And I will choose as the clipping mask so that the shade does not go out of this brown boundary. Okay, let's, okay, let's draw shading over here. I'm going to, I'm going to do this, you can do shading as for your requirements. I'm choosing like this. Okay. Now I'm going to choose a lighter shade of green to add a highlight. So it, let's give highlight here. I'm going to choose a little lighter shade more. Okay. I have this also also. Okay. I think it's fine. Now, I'm going to choose a little bit of darker sheet, choose studio pen, and I'm going to draw some details on the leaf. Okay? Like this rest. I'm done with the drawing of the leaf. Okay. Let's, let's wind up here. Okay. I'm done with the part of the leave click on. Done. Okay. Let's try animating it through performing. To enter the performing mode, you are going to tap this little circle right here. Just tap it, you will notice it changes to a little red square. It also says, ready here, Right here. It says it is ready to record your movements right here. Okay, let's put a pencil on here and just swing, make little movements. And you're going to notice that the timeline is playing here on the back. Meanwhile, you are just making few movements on the stage of right here. You can also move the leaf here, as I've already told you, that you can use this back space to record movements. Okay, let's just pause and just flick back the playhead all the way to the beginning. Like this. You want to see that the movements have already been recorded using the performing mode. You will see that as you swing along the leave, the movements are recorded and it is playing now. Okay. One thing I want to show you right here is using this modified button. If I'm going to tap it, you're going to see motion filtering. What it does is it soothes out all the movements you have done. Okay. Like I am at 38% if I swipe it down to eight or 9% Okay. Tap done and just flick back the playhead all the way to beginning. Let's see what it does now. What it is doing is it is recording movements more quickly. Now if I want to modify it to 100% like this and tap done, let's see what it does. Just flick it back, you're going to see that the movements are now all soothed out and it will look more like soothing movements and not very expressive as you can see. That's how modify and motion filtering works in the procreate dreams. I'm going to pause. Okay, let's explore some of the things you can perform on procreate dreams. You might have noticed that you have the Red Mountain Parks around it, these dotted lines with nodes in the corners. Let's practice making this bigger or smaller using the scale. To do that, we are going to tap one of the corner of the nodes and drag it in and out to make it bigger and smaller. You go in and out like this. Now, now you can grab the top or bottom of this leaf mountain box like this. You want to see that the leaf is squashing up and down like this. Or what you can do is you can take one of the sides or the edges of the mountain box and click on this. And just flick it like this. It, you can see the leaf is flipping so quickly, right? Okay. Now, let's rotate this leaf. In order to rotate, you're going to see that you have the mounting box. You have four corners on the mounting box and you're going to grab one of the nodes right here. You want to see that you have this little gray circle appearing. Just click on it and just drag and move simple motions. You can rotate, flip it completely. You want to see that the leaf is turning, flipping, moving, swinging, twirling. And it's so beautiful to see that we are rotating all the way to the field right now. Another thing I want to show you is how to edit your anchor points. This is the point around which the object rotates and scales. Another type of things, let's edit our anchor points. You can see three different dots right here, topic, and you have three different options. Horizontal, flipping vertical, and but we got to choose edit, Anchor. Okay, tap here. A plus sign has appeared. Now if I want to just drag the plus sign all the way here, all the movements will be recorded around this plus sign. Okay, let's play it. Tab done. And let's just play now you're going to see all the movements are around that plus sign. See, okay. Now in order to edit it again, pause and we're going to choose edit. Anchor, point again. Tab three dots, edit, anchor. Now, just drag it all the way to the center of the leaf and just draw it all the way to the beginning and see all the movements are recording are done through the middle of the leaf. Correct. Now we have two other really cool transformation tools which you can use to perform in procreate dreams, which are Distort and Warp tool. But in these tools, in order to record the movements, we have to make sure that the content is on a single layer. In our case, there are two different layers and meanwhile, there is no feature in the procreate dreams in order to combine and pinch to convert it into a single layer. Correct. What we're going to do is Here is, in order to zoom in, you will see a little sign has appeared right here, right? If we just tap on it, we will see that our layer has been hidden. Okay, we're going to add a new content track from this plus little sign tap on it. And we're going to add a new content track. We will see that here is a new portion has appeared where we will draw our content. Okay, let's draw something. Go to the draw and paint mode now. Choose a brush, I'm going to choose this stamp brush of mine. Let's choose a color. Let's choose an orange color. Okay, let's tap on it. And you can see a stamp brush has already been appeared. It's so pretty, right? Okay, Tab done. Now, we are going to be using what tool in this drawing. First of all, in order to use the performing mode first we have to make sure that our content has been filled up in our layer. In order to do that, you can see little, a little rectangular line is here, We can just tap and hold. And here is the option coming which is called fill duration. And just tap on it. You can see the entire track has been filled with this. Right now we have to shift on the left. You can do this in two ways. First you can just drag hold and drag it to the left. Likewise, the content will shift to the right. The other method is just take one of the edge of the and just drag it. So these are the two ways in order to shift the track left, right, or up, down, right. Okay, now we are going to use the Warp Tool. Make sure that Playhead is all the way to the beginning. You are in the perform mode. Click on it, now click on it. We have three different options. Choose Move, and we're going to use Warp Tool. Now you can see different anchor points have appeared, right? And we are going to choose any of the anchor point, like it totally depends on you and the flow of the object. I'm going to grab this anchor point and I'm going to just make circular movements. You will see that the timeline is already playing. It is recording slow movements and gentle movements all the way. You can use swing, you can use circular motions, you can go up down, et cetera, okay? I'm going to hit pause and just see what it has recorded. Just flick it back and you're going to see simple motions has already been recorded. If you want to modify, I've already told you, click on modify, you can use motion filtering and you can make it even more smoother or quicker according to your requirements. Okay, now it done. Now in order to play around Warp Tool a bit more, just click on it again. Hit on Performing mode, and you're going to grab any of the nodes right here. I'm going to choose this, I'm going to swing here, make circular movements. Likewise, you can grab and do multiple movements as per your requirements. Okay, I'm going to do swinging motion, circular motions. Up, down, left, right. Oh, it's so fun. Right? Okay, I'm going to hit pause and I'm just going to see how it has recorded. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Now, let's do it again. Okay, now I'm going to grab this one. I'm going to grab this one. Okay, so it's moving so quickly and it is adding so cute effects, right? Likewise, you can add multiple movements in your draw Warp tool as well. Okay? All right, now that we have done some animation, you will notice that in the timeline, if you zoom in, all these little tracks have appeared with red symbols in them. These are called the key frames. This is how performing in procreate Rams works look like. It automatically creates key frames for each of the movement and adjustments that we make. If you're not familiar with the key frames, don't worry about it. We're going to talk more in the accompanying lessons. So far, we have performed some movements, rotation, whopping, but I think real magic happens when we combine all of the movements and animations together. Okay, so let's begin. Okay, let's tap this, go all the way to the beginning. Now what we're going to do is we're going to be performing Tap the performer. Meanwhile, we are going to choose move. Now we'll grab one of the notes of the content and we are going to swing. Let's undo it. You have to rotate it, right? So we're going to grab one of the notes and we are so fun. Our leaf is swing and rot. Let me show you twirling, right? Okay, let's pause. Go all the way to the beginning Pa first. Now, in order to twirl it or flip it, I'm going to grab one of the edge of the mounting box. Just tap and hold and flick it like this. You can move it smaller or you can go slowly or quickly like this. Flipping, flipping lane. Oh, it's so fun, right? Posit. Now we can also move, we can make the leaf go smaller and bigger. And we can use and play with all these different types of animations like this. Now let's hit play. Now you're going to see all the different motions have been recorded in one leaf. It is whopping, also it is rotating. It is swinging, It is also going smaller and bigger like that. Okay? Now, if I want to move the frame from here to here, what I'm going to do is f, I'm going to grab this, play it all the way to the beginning. Just posit now I'm going to take the leaf all the way to the starting point so that it will appear in the stage that as if the leaf is appearing and it is starting from here and it is going and swinging and moving all the way across the stage. Okay? So I'm going to choose, I'm going to tap on it so that the mounting box will appear and I'm going to shift it to the left and to the backstage. Okay? Meanwhile it is recording all the movements on the backstage. Right? But we have to move the leave all the way through here. And I want the leaf to go move and in the swinging motions and circular motions like this, okay? Now, I'm going to choose performing mode. And now I will record simple motions, okay? Like our leaf is like going crazy right now, isn't it? Okay. Now let's go all the way to the beginning. And let's see. A leaf is performing like it is going crazy right now, right? These animations are so, so pretty. We can just play and it is a lot of fun. Now, one more thing I want to show you is how to change the color of the leaf. Or if I want to just blink the leaf or change the opacity of the leaf, let's do it. There are some more tools which I want to show you here is like if I want to go here, just drag it so that the leaf is appearing. Okay? Yeah. Now, just click on Playhead. Since we have already explored these options, now I'm going to choose the other option which is the filter mode. Let's start from Opacity. I'm going to choose Opacity now, since the playhead is right here right now, it will record the movements from here till here. The performing mode is already on Click on the filters and click on Opacity. Now what I'm going to do is I'm going to decrease the amount of opacity. And increase the amount of opacity like this and this and this space it is playing. It is creating a blinking effect, right? It is appearing and it's disappearing. Likewise, you can also play with the other effect, which is H SP, which is hue saturation and rightness. If you play with the hue, it will change the colors quickly. If I want to go all the way to the left and right, it is changing colors and changing the color of the. It is so beautiful, right? Okay. Pause and go, all the way to the beginning and click on play. See, it is blinking, swinging, twirling, rotating, whopping, changing colors and changing opacity. These were all the different effects which we have learned so far. I hope you enjoyed learning how to animate using the performing feature in the procreate dreams. There are many cool features in procreate dreams which we will explore in future lessons. In our next video, we're going to cover key framing. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. 8. Keyframe Animation: Hello and welcome to our next follow along lesson in Procreate Dreams using keyframe animation. What's the most awesome thing about key framing is that you have to draw something once and then animate it without having to redraw a cain. And again before pigging, I'll be importing Dreams file into Procreate Dreams application. I've also shared the same file into your class resources, Pac. So you can download this Dreams file into your ipad. And now I'm going to show you how to import the Dreams file into your Procreate Dreams application. Let's get started. I'm going to tap on this plus sign. Now I'm going to choose the square layout right here. And I'm going to tap on empty. Now in order to import the streams file into our project, you have to click on this little plus sign. You have to choose File option. Now you can see the calls animation is right here. You have to tap on it and click on Open. Now you can see our project has imported and now we will begin animating using the key frames animation. Now you can see we have imported our file into appropriate Dreams application. Now we're going to see what are the contents which we have right here. Just open the group. Go down. We have this fall leaf one, let's see what all the contents we have for leaf two, cloud one, clouds two, we have this main character, go one. We have the drawing and we have the background. Okay, let's go one by one. If I tap on it, you will see this is a character number one which is for leaf on E. If I tap on this, that's a second. Leaf clouds. If I click on here, these are my cloud one. This is cloud two, This is our main character and this is the background. Since we have an overview of the contents now let's start animating it. We will begin with our fall leaf one. Okay, let's zoom out a bit. Tap on here. This is our fall leaf on. I want the animation to happen from here, because I want the leaf to be moving around here and it's swinging in the air like that. Okay. I'm going to make sure that the motions are like it's twirling around and waving in the air. Okay. To begin with, I'm going to tap on the clapboard, Choose move, and choose move and scale. You will see a track has appeared, which is great. Track has appeared, and this is our key frame. This is our starting point right here. And now, since our track is off, it's like how many seconds? It's like 10 seconds. I want the next key frame, which I want to create in our track is at 5 seconds. Let's suppose if I want the track to minimize, yeah, I'm going to swipe it right to the left with three fingers. This will make sure that our suppose it has come into our project. Okay. I'm going to choose till 5 seconds. I'm going to click here again. Click on the clapboard, Cho, choose move and scale. This is our first way to create keyframe right here. The second way I want to create an easy keyframe is by just clicking at the end point right here and just double tapping it. You see we have this white option has appeared that shows that we have already created a keyframe. Okay, so now you can see that our leaf is moving all the way straight. But this normally does not happen, right? Because our leaves have to like swing and move around. This is very much easy using the perform tool. But since our lesson is on key framing only, we are going to just animate our second leaf using key frame. You have to add multiple key frames in order to move, move our leaf into a swinging motion. Okay, let's do it. Let's suppose I want my leave to start from here, okay? It is already in our project since our first key leave leave was starting behind our project. But I want this leave to happen from inside the project. Okay, let's click on tap, tap, move, and choose move and scale. Our key frame track is created, our key frame is created. Now I want the motion to be swinging, okay? Let's create small key frames. Okay, I'm going to tap here, just double tap it. And you're going to see that a keyframe is created. Now, I'm going to move it, sorry, I'm going to move it till here. Now, I'm going to add a little key frame right here. Now I'm going to move the key frame right here. Just duplicate it again and again. Now I'm going to add keyframe here. Now just double tap it. I'm going to add key frame here. Just duplicate your motions again and again until you are fully satisfied with the movement of the leaf. Okay, I'm going to add here, I'm going to add here it is. Moving here slowly and steadily. Let's tap here and let's move across the object. Okay, let's play. See, it is moving so quickly, but we do not want that artificial movement of the right. So we can do it in one way by first zoom in a bit. What we can do is just take one key frame and drag all the way. Let's suppose at the end, drag it down, take this keyframe and just spread key frames in, in gaps so that all the key frames fill up our entire key frame track. Okay, let's try this way. Let's go this and we are done. Now, if we just play, we are going to see little sweet movements of the leave, right? It is moving slowly and it is moving smoothly than before. Right, now, I want the leaf to rotate. I'm going to select this keyframe, since this is our second key frame, and the animation will be happening from here till here. I want to rotate here. You can select this option. And since rotation happens in all the way to three 60 degree, right? But I'm going to, you can choose according to your requirements. You can choose three 60 or one 80 or in the multiples of three 60. You can do any, okay? But for this I'm going to choose, let's suppose 90 degrees, okay? So if I go back and just hit play, you will see little motions are coming and it is waving, right? But our motions stopped right here, right? Because it was, it happened from the start. I have added motion and it is again coming to the starting point. See, the motion is not here, so I'm going to add motion from here. Okay, I'm going to add again 90 degrees. Let's hit play. It is again swinging. Let's suppose I want the leaf to rotate full circle. I'm going to add three 60 degrees. Let's now it's rotating three 60 degrees circle. Okay, Let's do one 80 degrees. Okay? It's rotating half circle. And let's suppose I want again 90, 90 was pretty cool, right? Let's play. Okay, I think 90 degrees is looking more cool here. Let's again add 90 degree rotation. Let's play again at 90. Okay, then we are done. Okay, now let's animate our clouds. Since this is cloud one, and I want my clouds to move from the left, I want the animation to begin from here. Okay, let's go at the start. Click on move, choose move and scale. And here key frame will be created. And you can see this white key frame is created. And let's go all the way till the end. Click on it, you will see the key frame track is created. And now I'm going to add motion here. I will just tap on it. I'm going to move all the way across the screen. Okay, I'm going to choose this one first. Now I'm going to move it and it will go all across the screen. I'm going to hit play. Now let's suppose if I want my clouds to become smaller in size, I'm going to go at the end. You're going to see the mounting box has appeared. Just choose one of the nodes of the mountain box and just drag it. See our animation is happening and our clouds are moving across the screen. Right now, let's suppose I want my clouds just hit pause. I want my clouds to become smaller. At the end, what I'll do is just click on this key frame. Our clouds are right here right now. Click on one of the nodes of the mounting box and just drag it smaller like this. Now this will make sure that the clouds start from here. And this will come right all the way here, but the size will decrease. Let's play. You will see the clouds are becoming smaller, slowly and steadily, right? So this is how you add different motions. You can also play with opacity if I hit Pause. And let's go all the way till the end. Now, just click on this clapboard. And if I'm going to choose Filter and choose opacity, I'm going to decrease in the amount of opacity. Okay? It is disappearing. The clouds are disappearing at the end. Let's replay and you will see the clouds are disappearing and also they are becoming smaller in size, right? You can animate this all the way through using the key frame feature as well. You can also use the Perform feature which I already showed you in our previous lesson, but this was our key frame lesson. Okay, let's begin animating our second cloud. Now I want my cloud to start from here. I want my cloud to go all the way across the screen to the left. Okay, let's click on the clapboard, choose move. Click on move and scale. A key frame will be created right here. Now go all the way to the end. Double tap it. A key frame will be created right here as well. Okay, now I want to add motion. Okay, Now click on the Cloud track. Click here. Now I'm going to drag the cloud all the way to the left. Okay, now I'm going to head play. Now hit play. Now you're going to see the clouds are moving in opposite direction. One is moving from the left to the right, other is working from right to left. Okay, so that's how animation works using key frame feature. Now let's suppose I want to change the color of the cloud. Okay, so what I'm going to do is let's change the color right here. Okay, I'm going to tap the C. I'm going to click on Filter and I'm going to choose SSP. Okay, So just drag down the rightness. And now just hit play. I don't know what's happening with my offensil right now. See our cloud is changing its color right here. That's how we can combine multiple functions in procreate dreams and use different features and animate our characters in procreate dreams. Okay, okay, now let's begin animating our final character, which is our main. Okay, let's imagine first how our character will appear. I want my character to appear from the top and it should bounce here. Okay, let's first drag the character all the way to the top from here. Now, just tap on the clapboard, choose move, Tap on move and scale. Key frame will be created, go at the end, double tap it. Key frame will be created right here as well. Okay? Now, since our keyframe is here, I want my character to move here. Let's play, See, our character is moving smoothly from the top to the bottom, okay? But what if I want my goal to appear so quickly as if it is falling on the ground? What I'm going to do is hold the ski frame and drag it all the way to one seconds. Let's hit, it has appeared so quickly as if it is dropping on the ground right now. Let's add a little bouncy effect on our Gul. In order to do that, let's zoom in. I'm going to add key frames right here. I'm going to add two key frames, first here. And then I'm going to add second key frame, very much closer, because it's happening very quickly. Okay, second is created right here. Okay, let's just go to our first key frame. Now go to our, just hold one of the edges of our mounting box and it is flipping. It is coming down from the centers. We have to edit our anchor point, right? Just go to three dots. Click on it, anchor, and just drag it all the way to the bottom of our Go tab. Done now just hold one of the edges of our mounting box, it a bit smaller. Now go to the second key frame, it will be in its original position. Now just hit play, you're going to see a little bouncy effect has created. If you want the bouncy effect to be more smooth, what you can do is just drag this key frame a bit forward. Drag this as well, a bit forward. And now hit play. This bouncy effect is so smooth right now, isn't it? Now let's enter the full screen mode by taking four fingers and tapping on the screen. Hit Play button, and you're going to see the whole movie playing around. It's so beautiful, right? You can also take a finger and just drag left. All right, as play requirements, that's how you can create animation using key frames in Procreate Dreams. In the next lesson, we're going to cover the third player of animation in procreate dreams using frame by frame animation. Good, now see you in the next lesson. 9. Frame by Frame Animation: Hello and welcome to our last method of animating in procreate dreams by using frame by frame animation. In this project, we are going to do some super friendly animation using frame by frame animation. You will receive a downloadable resource file for this project. So you have to import the resource pack onto your Procreate Dreams application. Now to import the files into your Procreate Dreams application, tap on this little plus sign. Now you have to select the files option. Click on file. Now choose this mango frame animation. Now if you tap on it, click open, you will see that the file will start importing. We have this resource pack right here and we will be animating frame by frame animation here. Now let's get started by adding a new content track here for my frame by frame animation. So let's add a track. You will see a gray track has appeared. This will be a new content track where we will be animating. Now in order to enter the flip book mode, you have to go into the draw and paint mode. Now you can see that this little gray bar in the center of the screen has appeared. If I drag that down, you can see we have entered into our flip book mode. Now I can move my flip book around the flip book, you see these squares right here. These are called the pages of our flip book. Now, if I want to close it, you will see that you have again reached onto your time line. If I again want to enter into your flip book mode, I'm going to choose this little gray bar and I'm going to drag it down like this. Again, flip book mode will appear. Now let's draw something in our flip book, I. Let's choose white color only. Now let's choose a brush. I'm going to use chalk brush. Okay, let's draw something now. This is our frame. And now let's zoom in. Let's draw just a stroke. You can see a stroke has appeared, increase the size. Okay, Now let's add some. Go to the next frame. You can see the previous frame is appearing, right? These are called as the onion skin. And also you can play around with the properties of this onion skin by tapping on the time code. Just tap on it and you're going to see different options have appeared. You can hide the skin, you can show it, or hide it. You can play around with the colors of the skin, like backward and forward. There'll be two movements, the ones which are going forward and the ones which are going backward. You can change the color of both the skins. Also you can set the number of frames. You can change the opacity of the skin likewise. Okay, let's draw adding few strokes and just complete our animation. Let's add a stroke here. Just undo, I'm adding a stroke. Okay, I'm going to add the stroke from the start. Now, add a new frame. I'm going to add again from the start. And I'm going to complete all the way around till the starting point. Okay, let's just quickly add one by one. Okay, it's going smoothly. Again, it's not necessary that you have to be precise enough, but the more random it gets, the more fun it gets. Okay, So I'm going to add frames one by one by one. See you can see a flip book is coming up quickly, right? Adding new frames again and again, again and again. I'm going to show you what effect it creates. This is a really exciting tool. By procreate dreams, you can act and play around with multiple motions. You can also explore some different motions using this tool only. Meanwhile, you can just lower down the size. Oh, it has got a bit thinner. It's taking too much of frames, right? But trust me, this is going to be a lot of fun when we are going to see the animation if let's do it here on the way. Okay, so we're almost there. I think the shape of the mango is changing now. It's getting so poky right here. Definitely the mango doesn't looks like this but anyways. Yeah. Giving a hands on to frame by frame. Right. Okay. We are reaching at the beginning almost and then we are going to replay how it has created our animation. Let's go slowly and steadily. All right, we're almost reaching until the end, but one thing you have to make sure is you have to repeat. When you come to the starting point, you have to repeat the frames. I'm going to tell you a bit, let me tell you quite a while. We we have completed a full circle. I'm repeating it. Why? Because I want the circle to complete for at least few moments to look like it's coming natural, right? So I'm going to repeat two frames more and make it circle. Now let's, let's exit from our book mode by tapping on the cross sign. Now let's see what it has been recorded by just going all the way to our frames and seeing how many frames. Oh my God, we have created a lot of frames right here. Okay. Now, once it gets fit into our whole space, now hit play button and you're going to see that these white strokes are covering up our whole mango right here, right? If you want to enter into the full screen mode, what I've told you, you have to take four fingers step on the screen. You're going to see that our cute frame by frame animation is happening. But if you want that, you are seeing that these white lines are covering up our mango. What you're going to do is first exit pause now. First of all, you have to just group them. In order to group our frames, what you have to do is click on this button. Now you can group all the frames together. You can group players. You can group tracks. You can group frames. You have to do this only by your Apple pencil. Okay? Okay. Just give a simple stroke from right to left. In order to like this by just drawing a line. You will see all the frames have been selected right now. In order to group them, just long press any of the frame. Click on Group. This will turn all the frames into a group. You see our group has been created now. Just shift this group from here to here so that it starts from the starting point right here. Now we have to bring this white line to the back of the mango, right, because we can see that it is covering upper mango a bit. First, just turn this off, add a new content track from here. We are going to add a content track right above it so that it gets below the mango and it gets above the background. Okay, add a new content track from here. You see we have created a new content track now Just take this track and bring it all the way down to the back. Here. Now let's play. You see the line is appearing at the back of a mango. Let's enter into a full screen mode and you see it's appearing beautifully. Now that's how frame by frame animation works in procreate dreams. Okay, let's deep dive some more methods of frame by frame animation. Now if you see that there are some curvy and wiggly lines happening, let me tell you that I have created these curvy lines using the same frame by frame animation. Let me show you. Just hit first. Let me go onto this curvy lines track. Just open a top, drag it all the way down, and you're going to see that these multiple frames are here. Because I created this effect using frame by frame animation. See, I created multiple tracks and I duplicated them just to create more lengthy effect. That's why I duplicated this. You can also duplicate in order to create more lengthy impact onto your animation. Okay, what I did, let me tell you, first of all, in our first frame, you can see these lines appearing. Okay? First of all, I drew five lines, five curvy lines like this. Okay? But when I, when I added a second key frame, I drew like suppose if I drew the curvy lines here like this. But on the second key frame, I drew just the opposite. Like suppose if the line is going up, I drew it to the town, then up, then down, then up, then down. So likewise, you have to use the motion to the opposite direction, because that's how the animation will work, right? If you just repeat all the way again and again, animation will not work. Okay? So you have to add the animation in the opposite direction. And then you're going to duplicate these multiple frames until, unless you are satisfied, you got to keep adding all the frames. And then you're going to group it using this tool that was one of the other example of frame by frame animation. Okay, let me show you one more example of frame by frame. Let's go back to movies. Let's swipe it all the way down, and let's just choose this. If you're going to see zoom in, I have multiple frames right here. Okay, let's play. Oh, that's so cute. If you want to just zoom in a bit so that this blank space goes away. Now, just hit play, you're going to see our ball is popping up, right, right, again, and again, to the left, and right, and left. It's just looping around. See, it's such a cute animation. Right, So what I did, I took key frames and drew a ball on our first frame, since it is in its original position. Now I added a new key frame right here. You can see it is slowly changing its shape, right, because it is swinging now. Now, if I go onto the third frame, you can see it again. It is changing its shape. Right now it is going all the way to the flat, flat direction. Because it is swinging and popping on the ground, it has become more flat now. It is coming back slowly and steadily into our original shape. It is coming back into its original shape. You have to make sure that the starting point, that the ending point and the starting point is into its original shapes. So that all the motions which are happening, they are between the frames. In order to make the motion into a smoothing effect, right, Hit play, you're going to see a pumping effect happening, okay? Now one thing I want to tell you is there are three different playback modes of our object. Since this animation is happening in a mode which is called as the ping pong effect. Now in order to edit this, we're going to go to the name of our Dreams file. Click on it, Now go to our timeline. You can see ping pong effect has been selected. You can play around with these effects. You can choose Loop. If I select this loop, and I'm going to click on Done Now here play. Now you see our motions are looping again and again again and again. That was all about frame by frame animation in Procreate Dreams, I hope you enjoy this lesson. In the next lesson, we are going to be covering looping and spinning characters animation, which is going to be a lot of fun. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. 10. Loping Animation: Welcome back to a lesson, and in this lesson we'll be learning about looping animation. How to spin characters just to create a looping effect so that it goes on and on. So I'm going to be teaching you how to set up your animation to do that. We're going to be creating fun and colorful shapes. Just click on plus sign and we're going to choose a template. Let's choose a square template empty. First of all, let's go to our dream name file, and we're going to be editing the duration. Let's tap it to 5 seconds, that's going to be fine. Now let's go to our draw and paint mode and draw our characters. Let's choose color. I'm going to be choosing pink color. Let's choose a bright pink. It looks more fun, right? Let's choose the brush now let's select monoline brush. It's fine. Okay, let's draw, let's just swipe it down so that we get a more clearer view. Okay, let's draw a shape in the shape of a cloud or it's a flower, right? I can take it any shape. See, it's looking so colorful. If you just zoom and you can see these lines. Procreate Dreams hasn't launched any feature yet to fill up these lines like we had in our procreate application, you just manually fit it. Meanwhile, I'm going to do it very quickly. Okay, now we are done. You can also eliminate the step as their requirements. Okay, I'm going to choose Done. Now we're going to add a new different track. And we're going to add a second character on our second track. Make sure that you have two different tracks for different characters because we are going to be animating them independently. Okay, now let's draw our second shape. Let's go to the draw and paint mode. Let's choose a color. I'm going to choose a blue color. Okay, now let's select a brush. I'm going to select mono line only. Now let's trap draw character. Let's draw a character in the shape of a star. You can also overlap it. You can draw it quickly. You can also go out of the boundary, you can fill the color. Now, color draw it. Let's fill the gap here quickly. Okay, Now, in order to make it more funkier, you can just make soft edges of the star, round edges to make it look more cute. Okay? That totally depends on you. I'm just doing it now. We are done with it. Okay. Tape. You can also edit the shape if you want, just tap on here, we'll see a mountain box will appear. Now grab one of the edges and just drag it small, or you can also add. You can also edit the shape again, you can move characters anywhere you want. Okay, now let's draw a third character. Just click on Plus Sign and add a new content track here. And then just go to Draw and paint. Choose a color, I'm going to choose green. Now you can choose any color you want. Just swipe it down to draw a character, I'm going to choose a triangle. This time you can make it overlapping and you're going to fill the color. Just fill the gaps. Now done, and we have a third character right now. You can edit the shape if you want. You can make it like look fat. Okay, now let's just add our fourth character. Add a new content track. Go to draw and paint mode now. This time I'm going to choose yellow color. Okay, let's draw the s of square. Okay, let's just fill it. Oh, it's looking so cute. See, you can see the shapes are overlapping with each other. Right? You can just fill up the gap right here, although it's not appearing. But let's go it in a perfect way. Okay, I have done now. You can edit the sheet by clicking here. And you can make it smaller and you can shift it. Okay, Now we are done with all the characters. Now now you can see all the different characters are on different tracks. Now what you can do is just tap and hold one of the tracks and choose Filled Duration. You can see the duration has got filled up. We have 5 seconds of our video. The entire 5 seconds has got filled up. Likewise, you can repeat it with all the four shapes right here. Just swipe it and I'm going to tap. Hold this fil duration. Tap, hold this fil duration. And last one, fil duration. We are done with our 5 seconds now. Okay, now let's draw eyes of our characters. Okay? Now, before drawing the eyes of our characters, we have to just imagine what I contains. The white part and the black part, right? So we are going to be drawing those parts in two different tracks, so that we can independently animate them, right? Because we are going to be moving the eye around, spin around like that. So we are going to be drawing on two different tracks. Okay, so let's begin. Let's add a new content track. And just go to the drawing paint more. Choose a white color for the background. And just draw our eyes here. Just draw a circle here and another circle. This will be the background. You can make a big or small as per your requirements. Okay, I'm going to be choosing this shape. Okay, now we are done. Let's start. We have drawn the ice. Now we are going to be adding new content track for our pupil. Go to the draw and paint, choose black color. Now I'm going to be drawing pupil, I'm going to be drawing a big one. Does it look cute? Now, after we have added the eyes, isn't it? Okay, let's tap done. We're going to see that we have added eyes. Now what we're going to do is just fill duration. Just click on Fill Duration so that our entire content gets filled up. In order not to make it more complex, just group one of just group the characters with the ice together. Okay, just go on this option, click on these tracks, and just tap and hold and click on group. One of the characters along with the eyes got grouped up together. Now let's just repeat the same step for other characters as well. We are first just exit from this mode. Now go to this green shaped character, add a new content track. Go to the draw and paint mode. Choose white color, swipe it down, and draw our eyes. I'm going to choose this oval shaped eyes for this character. You can play around with the shapes and the eyes as you want. I'm just going to manually fill it. Just tap done. Now add a new contul track here to draw the pupil. Choose black color. Just swipe it down. I'm going to be drawing a small pupil. It looks more funkier here right now. Tap done. Now we are going to be grouping them all together. First, click on Fill Duration, then going to this option and we are going to be grouping it. You see we have our second character ready. Now just go to our fourth character. First. Exit, add a new content track here, go to Draw and Paint mode, choose White color. Just wipe it down and I'm going to be drawing the eyes. Let's choose a circle here. Okay, that's perfect for me. Now, tap done. Now add a new content track for the pupil. Go to draw and paint mode. Choose black color, swipe it down, and draw the pupil. Now, just tap done. Yeah, tap done. We have our third character ready and just first fill the duration. And then just group them by long pressing clic group. We have our third character ready. Now our fourth character is left. Just exit from this group mode and add a new content track. Right above it, we have our content track ready. Now go to drawing Paint mode. Choose white color. Now just wipe it down and draw. I'm going to be drawing bigger ice here. Okay, we are done. Add a new content track for the pupil. Go to draw paint more, choose black color. Strike it down. And I'm going to be drawing a small pupil just to make all the characters independent and different from each other. Okay, now just fill duration and then just group them. Long pressing tap on group. Now you can see we have all the fold characters ready with our pupils and eyes tap done. Now you can see we have extra content tracks over here. You can just delete them by long pressing them and delete track. Just delete them quickly so that our project space doesn't look messy. Okay, just delete the extra layers. Okay, now we are done. Yeah. Now just wipe three fingers to the left and just fill up it. You can see that our content has filled up with the project space. And now just let's just open the group. I can see we have three different parts, the pupil, the wide circle, and the character. Okay, now we're going to do is we have to animate the eyes first. And then we are going to be spinning the characters. Okay, now first what we have to do is we have to rotate our pupil in order to move around, spin, and create a funky animation to our eyes. Okay, let's just tap it and just move. Or you can see that the pupil is going outside the boundary of the eyes. Okay, what we have to do is just grab just long, press it and choose this option which is called mask. And choose clipping mask. Now this layer is being clipped to this air. Now if we move it, we can see that the pupil is not going outside the boundaries of the eye right now. We can animate it. Now to animate them, I'm going to be using performing mode. Let's just grab it. Yeah, we have reached the end here, which is 5 seconds. Go to all the way from the start. Choose performing mode. Now we are going to be rotating our eyes. Okay. You can move like simple motions. You can rotate them left, right, top down. Okay, Like that. Okay, let's start. Oh, our eyes are looking so cute, right? We are playing around. Okay, it is done. Now, just flick it back and you're going to see these motions are looking so quick, cute. Now, okay, I've done, we're going to be repeating the same step for our other characters. Okay, now let's just close the group and go to our green shaped character. Just repeat the same step. Clip the black pupil to the white circle. Just tap and hood and choose mask. Choose clipping mask. Now go all the way from the start, choose performing mode. Now I'm going to be rotating the eyes. See it's looking so fun. Top down, left, right. But since we have reached the end of the timeline, the performing mode has stopped Now, let's just flick it back and just play. You're going to see cute animation is happening in our eyes, right? Not just exit and repeat the same step for our second character. Third character, sorry. Okay, just open the group. This pupil shaped to our white circle. Choose flipping mask. And now we are going to be animating it simple. Oh, it's looking so cute. As if our characters are going mad. Just stop it. Close the group. Just repeat the same step for a last character. Just go to our pupil. Layer long, press it, choose mask, choose clipping mask. Now we are going to be animating click on performing mode. Now this is going to be only rotating eyes. Now you're seeing, okay, let's tap done and in order to flick back the playhead and you're going to see our eyes are spinning, right? It's looking so cute and the characters have come to life, right? Okay. Now just close this group first. Yeah, now what we are going to do is we're going to be spinning the characters one by one. Okay, let's just choose this character first. Click on the playhead, choose move, choose move, and scale. You're going to see a content track, like a key frame track has appeared now I'm going to be going all the way till the end. And I'm going to be adding a new track here. Just double tap it so that a keyframe is created here. Now I am going to be rotating it. Okay? So just click on it and I'm going to choose rotate, since rotation forms a full three 60 degree circle, right? So I'm going to be multiplying it to seven 20 so that the spin happens quickly, okay? You can just play around with that motion. Just going to choose seven 20 so that it forms a double circle. And in the time frame of five second, it happens quickly. Now I'm going to see how it happens. Just flick it back, you see our anchor point is on the different side, right? So first we have to edit our anchor point by clicking on Just choose Edit Anchor. See it is right here. But we don't want the circle to happen around this. We're going to choose Anchor Point and just go all the way to the center of a character. Now just hit play and you're going to see our characters pinning. But there is still one problem. We have to set our easing line that happens all the way smooth. Now just play. Now I see our animation is happening smoothly. Now, right tab, done. Now you see our animation is happening in a looping effect right? Now let's just animate our other characters by just going to the playhead, all the way to the start. Click on Playhead, choose move, choose move, and scale. Keyframe track will be created. Now go all the way to the end. Now just double tap it. You have the keyframe track right here now. You can just rotate them, You can choose three 60 or you can make like smaller spin. Let's just go ahead with three 60. Now I'm going to choose three 60. Okay? Now, before I'm going to see the spin, I'm going to set easing still linear. I'm going to also see what's happening. I have to select the anchor point as well. Now just go to these three dots. Edit our anchor point to the start, to the middle of the character and tap done now just zoo out and flick back the playhead. And you're going to see our characters are rotating. But what if I want these characters like this is also rotating in the anticlockwise, but I want one character to rotate in like the opposite direction. What I'm going to do is just go to this key frame. Since I have rotated like plus three 60, you can also rotate it to minus three 60 to make sure that the spin happens in a negative direction. Okay, so just hit tab and just flick back the playhead and you're going to see the rotation is happening in opposite direction, right? Again. You can see this spin is happening quickly. This pin is happening slowly. And these are moving all the way on the opposite direction. Likewise, you can animate the different characters right here, hit pause. Now let's just animate a third character. Go to the playhead, tap, move, choose move, and scale. Now just go all the way to the end. And you're going to just double tap it here. That a key frame track will be created right here as well. Now we are going to be animating our character now. Click on, just click rotate. I'm going to choose seven, 20. I'm going to add a fun little quick animation right here. Okay, now since it is done, I'm going to be adding, just edit our set all easings, set it to linear. Now I'm going to be editing our anchor point. Just go to three dots. Edit, anchor, go all the way to the center of the character. Tap done now just flick it back and you got to see the animation happening so quickly on our third character. It is looking so cute right now, let's just animate our star shaped character. Just hit pause now, just tap on move, choose move and scale. Go all the way to the end. Click key frame here, tap on it. I'm going to be setting all the easings to Lina. First edit the anchor point to the center. Now I'm going to be rotating it. Let's just choose minus three, 60 degrees. Now tap down, Just flick it back and you're going to see all the characters are spinning and rotating. The eyes are rotating. You see just enter into the full screen mode. We're going to see a fun animation, looping, spinning characters are happening. Let's just exit from our full screen mode by tapping on four fingers on the screen. Just play around some settings here. Let's click on the playhead and play around with the filter option. If I choose Filter now let's choose Opacity And bring down the opacity to. Now let's just exit from our full screen mode by tapping four fingers on the screen. And just play around some of the settings like opacity. Just click on the playhead, choose Filter, and just click on Opacity. And I want to bring down the opacity to 70% Okay? You can see this overlapping effect happening right here. It's looking good, right? Let's, I want to bring down the opacity of green character as well. Just tap on the playhead. Choose Filter, choose opacity. Just bring down down the Pacity to 70 or 80% as play requirements. And also for our yellow character, choose Filter. Click on Apacity and bring down the capacity to 82% That's fine for me. Or you can bring down the Asit. It's disappearing, so I don't want that to happen. You can select 84% that's fine for me. Now play. And you're going to see the looping animation. And you can see the characters are overlapping, right? You can tap on four fingers and enter the full screen mode. All right? You can just go all the way to 5 seconds and just click on four fingers and you will enter the full screen mode. And you're going to see all the animation till 5 seconds. You see the characters are overlapping and you can see the effect here. Right now, just exit from the full screen mode. And I'm going to play around a few settings more. Now if I want the pink shaped character to change color, I'm going to play with HSP. Just stop on the playhead, choose Filter. Click on HSP. I want, I want this color to change from 1 second, now I want the HSP to turn it red. And then from 2 seconds onwards, I want the color to turn purple. Then on 3 seconds, I want the color to turn. Dark blue. And then a 4 seconds, I want the color to again appear pink. And then at 4 seconds, I don't want anything to happen now. Just step on four fingers and hit play. And you're going to see the color is changing, right? It's looking so cute. Just hit play. I will show you that we have created fun animation. Here we have added characters. Then we have played with the opacity. We have played with the HSV hue, saturation and brightness. We have added our eyes. We are spinning the characters. We are spinning the pupil. We are rotating it and creating a whole looping animation. Now let's create a blinking effect to the eyes of our characters. In order to do so, let's exit. Now, let's go to first character first. You have to imagine what makes our eyes blink. See, there is pupil, there is white circle. Obviously the animation will happen on the white circle, right? Because the pupil doesn't blink the white circle. Blink. In order to animate, we have to make sure we are on the white circle because the animation will be happening on the white circle. Okay, so we have to go to the white circle of our eyes on this layer. And we are going to be using two methods. First is the perform mode and second is our key frames. Now let's begin using the perform method first. Hit on the perform mode first, then you see it's ready. Now make sure you are on the white circle. Just grab the top edge of the I. Just make a faster blink so that the blink happens quickly. While you are in the perform mode, make sure that the video will be playing and you have to make the spin the blink to happen very quickly. Okay, Just grab the top edge and make it blink. It is like it's not moving and it's not blinking as per R, the natural way. Right? If I head play, you will see the blinking is not happening properly and accurately because it's not closing properly. And that's how perform method fails here. The next method which we are going to be using is the key frames. By manually adding key frames to make sure that blinking happens accurately and it closes at the right spot. What we are going to do is first undo by tapping two fingers. Then we are going to create manual key frames. Right on this layer. Okay, just tap on the playhead, choose move, choose move and scale. Now I'm going to be first dragging this key frame all the way to 1 second, because I want that link to happen right at one seconds. Okay, now I'm going to be creating two more key frames by double tapping it. You see three key frames have been created now on the second key frame. Now imagine we are three key frames, right? This one is open, this one is open. Now, I want the middle keyframe to create a blinking effect. I'm going to be grabbing the bounding box, the top edge of the bounding box, and I'm going to be closing it perfectly like you can zoom it and you can close it perfectly. Now if I go back and just hit play, you see the blink has happened so quickly, right? But it is happening too quickly. So what we can do is just track the key frame bit on the right side to make the blink happen naturally. Okay? Just go back and hit play. Now you see that the blinking is happening in acute and natural way. Just hit play and you see that the blink has happened so accurately. You can also repeat the steps on the second or as per your requirements. I'm going to choose the third. At the third second, I'm going to be creating a key frame track right here. And I'm going to be duplicating it and duplicating it. Now I want the key frame. Just adjust the key frame. I'm going to be adjusting this keyframe here as well. Okay, Right here. Now, I'm going to be grabbing the middle of the key frame and just, I'm going to be closing the eyes by grabbing one of the edges. And I'm going to be just closing it so accurately. Now if I zoom out and if I hit play. Yeah, If I go back and I hit play, you see the happening. You see the blinking is happening, so cute. Now, likewise, we are going to be animating the blinking effect on other characters as well. First of all, we are going to be closing this group. Now go to our blue character, open the group, and go to our white layer. Just add a keyframe here. Choose move, tap, move, and scale. And now we are going to be grabbing this key frame all the way to one seconds. Now, add other key frame by having a sufficient gap to make the blink happen slowly Here, double tap it, so that it turns white. Now again, create a keyframe here, double tap it. Now we have to animate only on the middle of the key frame, right? Because the blinking will happen only on the middle of the key frame. Okay, let's begin. Go to the middle of the keyframes and just grab the bounding box, the top edge, and just close it. Now we are going to go back all the way and just play. And you're going to see that it is happening so naturally, right? Just hit pause. You can repeat it on 3 seconds as well. Go to 3 seconds, tap on the key frame. Double tap it, add two more key frames. We are going to be adjusting the time of the keyframe. Just drag it, Just drag it and create a gap. All right, so go to the middle of the key frame and just grab the bounding box, the top edge, and just close it. Go back and you're going to see it is happening now. Let's suppose if I want the blink to happen slowly, just grab some more gap. And just now you're going to see it's happening naturally now. Okay, you're repeat the same effect on other characters as well. Now I'm going to be closing this group. Now let's go to a third character, which is the green character. And open the group. And go to our right here and create key frames right here. Let's suppose if I want the blink to happen from 2 seconds now, I'm going to be creating key frames at 2 seconds. Just double now create a gap and double tap it. I'm going to create a third key frame, Double tap. Now go to the middle of the keyframe. Just grab the top edge of the public box and just close it. Okay? I'm going to go to the key frame, grab the top edge of the pounding box, and I'm going to close it like this. Now, if I hit play, you will see the blinking is happening slowly. Now. Likewise, you can repeat the same step at 4 seconds as well at key frames. Double tap it. Double tap it. Double tap it. You going to animate on the middle of the keyframe on? Okay, make sure that you are animating only at the middle. Now, grab the bounding box, the top edge, and you go to close it perfectly. Now just hit play and see it happens so good. If you hit play pattern, you're going to see our blinking is happening on the characters es, creating a cute lively animation. Right now, let's just close it. We are going to be going to our fourth character and animating the eyes open the group go to the white layer at key frames. Let's suppose I want the blink to happen twice. Okay, I'm going to be going like if I want 1 second one key frame is already created. Now go to second key frame, add a keyframe here. Add a key frame here as well. Now, add a key frame. One more key frame. Okay, And add another key frame. Now I'm going to be animating on our second keyframe. Click on it and grab the pounding box. I'm going to be closing it perfectly now. I'm going to be going to our fourth key frame again, I'm going to grab the pounding box top edge of it and I'm going to be closing it. Now if I go back and hit, you're going to see the blinking is happening twice. Likewise, you can play around with the blinking at key, adding key frames as for your requirements. Okay, I'm going to create again a blinking effect at 4 seconds. Add a keyframe here. Now just add a keyframe and then just add a keyframe here. Go to the middle and grab the top edge of the bounding box and just close it. Go back and hit play. Now that was all about creating the blinking effect on our characters. Close the group and fingers and hit play. Now see, our characters have come to life, right? I hope you enjoyed this lesson of creating a looping animation by making cute and fun spinning characters with blinking eyes. If you're a procreate user, and you might be wondering how to take your procreate artwork and bring it into procreate dreams so that you can animate it. And that is exactly what I'm going to be teaching you in the next lesson. Good be for now. See you in the next lesson. 11. Importing Procreate Artwork into Dreams: Hello and welcome back to our lesson. In this lesson, we are going to be learning about how to import procreate artwork into procreate dreams. There are basically a number of ways to do this. The first method is by using the split view option. Here the procreate application is open and now we are going to be, let's just go to gallery back. We are going to be just clicking on the three dots at the top. Just click on it and choose a split view option. Now our Procreate has shifted to the left and we are going to be opening Procreate Dreams. Now you see both applications have been opened and procreate is on the left and procreate reams is on the right. Now before importing the procreate artwork into procreate dreams, you have to make sure that the design which you want to import, you have duplicated that design in order to avoid any mistakes in the future. Let's just duplicate it first more, click on Duplicate. The artwork has been duplicated. Now in the procreate dreams, you have to choose the plus sign and select any of the template. I'm going to select the square template and click on empty. Now just hold this artwork and go to Procreate Dreams and just release it. You'll see the artwork will start importing. See it has been imported so smoothly right now. Let's move to the other method of importing procreate artwork into procreate dreams is by using the holding feature. Now we have to hold the artwork first. Let's just choose this and swipe up till you see the Procreate Dreams application, right click on it. And we are going to be adding a plus sign by using the other finger. Okay, Now just select the template. Click on empty. Now you are going to be releasing the file here. Now you will see this is the second method of importing the procreate artwork into dreams. All right, our artwork has been imported. Now let's go to our draw and paint mode and just select on the layers. You're going to see all the different layers. All the different artwork is on different layers, right? But unfortunately, you cannot see here because it is just a flat image right here. What you are going to do is just tap and hold on this and you're going to see an option called convert layers into tracks. So we're going to select it and you see the group has been created and you will see all the different artwork is on different tracks. Right. That's how we import procreate artwork into dreams and convert the artwork into tracks. Now we can animate all the different tracks individually and independently to each other. I hope now you have learned on how to import your procreate artwork into procreate dreams. To animate the artwork without having to save the layers individually. In the next lesson, we are going to be animating this whole scene by using all the different ways of animation we have learned so far. Good bake for now. See you in the next lesson. 12. Animating a Scene: Hello and welcome back to our lesson. In this lesson, we'll be animating whole scene where a kingfisher is sitting on a branch of a tree. And the wind is blowing, the leaves are flowing, the clouds are moving, the sunset is happening and changing its colors. Let's get into it. Here you can see we have our artwork imported into a Procreate Dreams file. And you can see here a group is there, where all the layers have been imported. All right. You can see our background, the Cloud Slayers. You can see the branch, the bird, and you can see the sun. Okay, so we have our artwork imported. Now let's get started with animating our characters. Let's start with the sun first. Imagine our sun will be coming from the left hand side and it will be going and swinging around and moving across the screen. Okay, let's begin. Just drag the playhead all the way to the beginning. Now before animating our sun, you have to make sure that it is on the right track. Since it is at the top, everything will be coming at the top. Sun will be appearing in front of every other tracks, right? So we have to just make sure it is between our background layer and the clouds. Okay, I'm going to add a new content track here. I'm going to swipe it down and bring it down, okay, our sun will be behind our clouds. Okay. Now just click on it. We can see the bounding box has appeared. Now make sure the sun is at the starting point. If I suppose I want my son to appear From here, it will be moving all the way across the screen and will be going on the backstage. Okay? Now, just click on the perform. Now we are going to be moving our sun. Just grab the sun and just move slowly and steadily across the screen. And goes all the way to our backstage like this. Okay. Now just flick it back and see the animation happening slowly and steadily. All right. Now we can also use one more feature here. Just hit pause. I'm going to go to modify. Yeah, we make sure that the motion filtering is set as per your standards or as per your requirement. If you lower it down, the motion will happen more quickly. If you grab it all the way to 100, the motions will be happening smoothly. Just play around with the settings like this tab done. I I think it's fine with the motion happening like this. All right. That was how we have animated the sun. Likewise, we'll be animating different characters like clouds. Now let's move to our second part, which is the clouds just tap and hold this cloud. And I'm going to be using the Perform mode again. Just make sure to place the cloud from the starting point. Suppose if I want my clouds to appear from the right, and I want my clouds to move across the screen to the left, Okay, Just tap on the perform mode and just make simple motions like this. And it is moving slowly and steadily across the screen like this. Tap done, now, just flick it back to see the animation happening. Right? Likewise, we are going to be animating the other clouds as well. Now just grab the other cloud. I want this cloud to start from right here. Okay, so meanwhile the first cloud is starting from the backstage. I want this cloud to start from here as well. Let's choose perform more again. And now I'm going to be animating and moving the clouds. Okay? It is moving very slowly. I want the cloud to remain on the stage like this. Okay? Tap done. Just flick it back. Tap done. You're going to see different motions are happening and they are independent to each other. They are moving at their own pace, right? Let's just animate our last cloud like this chose the third cloud. Go all the way to the start. I'm going to be using the Perform mode and let's just start our cloud right from here. And I'm going to be moving this across the screen like this. It is moving slowly, slowly across the screen like this. Right tap. Not just flick it back and you can see the animations happening so smoothly, right? All right, let's suppose I want to change the color of the sun like it is moving and it is changing into orangish color, right? I'm going to be starting on the playhead. Click on Filter, choose HSB, and you're going to see the track has, has been created right now. I want my HSB to start from 2 seconds. I'm going to be dragging all the way to 2 seconds and I want the color to change till 3 seconds. I'm going to be creating a track here. I want the color to change into oranges, all right? Just click on play here and you're going to see the color is happening, looking so pretty. Just stop on play and you will see the sun is changing its color and it is going and moving fs the screen. See? All right, now let's just go to our kingfisher. And we are going to be animating the kingfisher using the warp tool. All right, go to move and choose the warp mode. All right, so you can see different nodes have appeared. Now we are going to be animating this part of the kingfisher where it will be breathing and it will be like it will be creating a breathing effect. All right, just hit on perform mode and we are going to be moving this part of the body of the kingfisher. All right? Just add simple animation and just make sure that you are just doing it very smoothly. All right, since we are done now, you're going to just flick it back and you're going to see our kingfisher is breathing softly, right? All right. That's how we can create breathing effect onto our characters and bring characters into life. All right, now we are going to be animating the tail and the beak of our kingfisher. And we are going to be using the walk tool again. Let's go to our King Fisher body. We are going to be using the tool. All right, all the nodes have appeared. Now we are going to be grabbing the tail of our kingfisher and we are going to be moving it. All right, now hit perform mode. And we are going to be moving the tail like smoothly, and make sure that it aligns to the movement of the body. It creates a beautiful animation. All right, now we are done. Hit play, and we are going to see that the smooth animation is happening with our fisher. Now we are going to be animating the peak as well. Just hits. Now we are going to be animated the peak. Go to the Kingfisher body. Now go to the tune again again. And now just grab this part of the body of our kingfisher. All right. Just click on Performing mode and just make small movements like this. All right. See it is creating such a beautiful effect. And as if our kingfisher has come to life and it's breathing, our clouds are moving and the sun is going across the stage. So it's creating a lively effect. And a beautiful effect. Right now, we'll be animating the leaves of our branch. All right, let's go to the leaves group, open it, and you're going to see all the different leaves are here and they are on two different different tracks. Right? We'll be animating one by one and we'll be using the perform mode because it is super friendly and it is really just animating by feel. All right. Just click on the playhead tap move, choose the wool again, and we are going to be animating across the nodes. All right. Just click and perform. You're going to animate one by one, just move and just create simple motions like this. You're going to see that our leaves are coming into life, right? Just flick it back and you're going to see simple motions are happening. Our leaves are moving and adding cute little animation. Likewise, we are going to be repeating the same step with other part of the leaves. Just open it up. We're going to grab the leaves one and just take another part of the leaves. Let's suppose I want to take this part now. I'm going to be grabbing this portion and we are going to be moving this. It is creating cute animation, right? We're going to be repeating the same steps again and again until we reach the end of the timeline. Just flick it back and you're going to see animation happen. Likewise, we are going to be repeating these steps to all the parts of the leaves, okay? Now, just go back again to our leaves number one, okay? Now, since we are done with leave part one, let's go to our leaves number two. And we are going to be using the walk tool again. Go to perform mode and we are going to be animating again. Just choose any part of the leaf and make simple motions to make sure the leaves are coming into life. And adding a Sal animation here like this. Then I'm going to flick it back all the way to the start again. Take this section. I just turned it off. Just turning it on. This is our second part. Just choose the walk tool so that the nodes again appear. Now I'm going to be just grabbing this section and I'm going to be moving like this. We're going to add circular motion or wavy motion like you can play around with that tab Done. Now we are done with this part of the leave. Now we are going to be grabbing the other leaves. Leave part three, which is this. Now again we'll be using the walk. Just click on Perform Mode. We are going to be animating this section first, then we'll be animating the other section as well. You're going to add little motion, or way, or circle motion as per your requirements. Now just go back again. Grab the third layer, third part of the leave click on the Warp tool. I'm going to be using this section that makes sure that our whole part moves. All right. To be gentle, since we are done with this as well, now we are going to be tapping on Done. Take other section. Let's move to leaves number four, which is this. We are going to be using the Warp tool again. Now I'm going to be grabbing this section. Just click on Perform mode and just add simple, simple cute motions and bring the leaves into life. I'll just flick it back. Go back all the way to the start, Grab the leaves number four again. Going to go to, so that the nodes appear again and now I'm going to be moving them. See it is happening so cute. Our leaves are moving and it is waving around. Just tap done. And just go to the last part of our leaves, which just leaves number five, which is right here. Go to the Arbol. Just tap on the perform mode.

All right, we are done. Just grab it back. Go to the leaves number five again, just go to the B two, so that the nodes appear. In this part, I'm going to be grabbing this section, I'm going to be moving the leaves around like this, swinging and moving, and we are done. All right, now if you just zoom out and tap four fingers and hit play. Now you're going to see all the animations are happening together. Our sun is moving across the stage and our clouds are moving slowly and moving across. The wind is blowing, the leaves are flowing in the wind, and our kingfisher, which is sitting on the branch of the tree, it is moving and it is breathing. All the animations are happening together and looking so beautifully. Just click on back. Now we are going to be animating the last part of our leaf, which is the colorful leaf. I'm going to be using the Arbol only. Click on the perform mode now. We are going to be adding sweet little animation here as well. It will make sure that this part of the leaves is moving as well with the wind. Just add sweet circular motion or wavy motion swinging. We are done. Just tap four fingers and enter the full screen mode and just hit. Now you see we have animated the whole scene using different tools we have learned so far. In the next lesson, we are going to be covering about how to share your animation once you have created the whole animation, Appropriate dreams. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. 13. Sharing your Animation: Hello and welcome back to our lesson. In this lesson, we are going to be covering about how to share your animation and procreate dreams. Just go back. We're going to go to our movie name. In my case the name is stream line. We're going to tap it and you're going to see different options of appear. Just go to Share button and you're going to see different options. Like you can export your animation in the form of a video as frames, as images. You're going to export only the current frame. Or you can export the entire procreate Dreams file. The Dreams file, which I have attached as a class resource, was downloaded right from here. Also, here are some of the custom settings you can play around. There are different formats, video the file container, and you can just play around with them. That was all about how you can share your animation in procreate dreams. In the next lesson, we are going to be covering about how to import your procreate brushes into procreate dreams. Good, now see you in the next lesson. 14. Importing Procreate Brushes: Hello and welcome back to a lesson. In this lesson, we're going to be discussing about how to import your procreate brushes into procreate dreams. Like we discussed earlier, about how to import your procreate artwork into procreate dreams, the method is almost the same. Let's just go and recap the same. Okay, let's just move on to our procreate application. All right, We are going to be importing procreate brushes. Okay, let's just open this up. I'm going to open one of our brushes back. Suppose, let's just import this brush set. All right? I'm just tap and hold this entire brush set. I swipe up with other finger and go into procreate dreams. All right, now I'm going to tap it. Just select any other template you want. Selecting the square template. Now I will just go on to draw and paint mode. And now I'm going to go on the brushes and now I'm going to release it. Now you see the brush pack has already been imported. And you can see all the different brushes available here. This was one of the method of importing procreate brushes into procreate reams. Now let me show you the other method as well. This is called as a split method. Let's suppose if you have procreate dreams opened up in your ipad. Now I'm going to be choosing the split view option on the other side. I'm going to be opening my procreate. Let's go, let's go back and select one of the other brush set I want to import like I want to import fur brush like suppose I'm going to be dragging all the way from here to here. You can see the brush pack has been imported. And you can see if you see the fur brush has been imported right at the bottom. Let's suppose if you do not find the brush sets at the top all the way anytime you can just scrawl all the way to the bottom. Sometimes it happens that the brush sets does not appear at the top, you can just find it at the bottom that those were the two methods of importing the procrate brushes into procrateams. In the next lesson, we're going to be covering about how to import your audio into animation. I hope you enjoy the lesson. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. 15. Importing Audio into Procreate Dreams: Hello and welcome back to a lesson. Now, after we have learned how to import your artwork and rushes into Procreate dreams, now let's learn about how to import your audio into animation and how to edit it. So we have a website called Pixabay where let's just open crew and you got to see the Pixabay.com website. This is a website where you can download audios, videos, images. Absolutely. For free and they are absolutely royalty free. We'll be choosing Pixabay as a go to website to download audios for our animations, Inprocreate Dreams. Now what you have to do is just click on the dropdown button right here. You're going to select the sound effects or you can play around with music as well as for your requirements. I'm going to choose sound effects for now. Now in the search bar, I'm going to be typing some words like birds sharp. You're going to see some search results right here. You can select any. Let's just go with the first option and you're going to just drop down again with the sound effects. And you're going to see the RC, the total amount of royalty free sound effects, which is more than 10,000 plus. Right, Isn't it cool. So you can play around with any of the sound effects and you can download any of the sound effects for your animation. All right, let's just click on Play. See, you can just analyze which of the sounds will be the best for animation. All right, and you got to select download it as important, appropriate age. All right, let's just play another one. This is not the one which I want. This is a quiet on. All right. All right. I'm going to be selecting this one. So what you have to do is just start on the download button. Meanwhile I'm going to posit, just click on the download button. We're going to see this download option. Just tap on it and you have to save it in your files. I'm going to be saving on my ipad and in the procreate Dreams folder, and I'm going to be clicking on Save. Now once we have our audio ready, we are going to choose our Dreams file. Let's go to Procreate Dreams. We are going to be choosing our Dreams file here. Let's choose the Kingfisher Tales, which we just animated in our last session. I'm going to be adding the audio track into this animation. Okay, let's tap it now. Before adding the audio track, we have to add a new track from here. And then we will be importing the audio track into our procreate dreams. Now in order to import, you have to just swipe up and open the file folder and just drag this file long, hold it and just use the other finger. And go to your Procreate dreams and just release it. You're going to see the audio track has been imported now. You can just play around with the settings a bit. If I just go back all the way to the beginning and just tap on play, you're going to see a few voice is coming. That's the effect the audio sack has created to our animation right now. If you want to edit it now, let's just go onto our playhead and tap on this. And we're going to see two options are coming. One is level and the second one is edit. If I choose level, you're going to see the volume you can decrease and you can increase the volume as fhere requirements. If I choose like zero, since the audio is right beginning and the video is starting right now, I'm going to select the other key frame you're going to see this is our audio keyframe, right? This was the audio right where the level is zero. And you're going to select another audio where you can just fade in the voice up to 20% or 20% right? So you're going to see a slightly increasing volume sounds. So if you just tap on play, you're going to see the voices starting from zero and coming all the way to 20% right? If you want to increase it, you can always increase it. I'm just going to grab it all the way to 50% And tap done now. Just hit play and you're going to see a fading voice, right? You can play around with the fading out a bit like from at the end just going all the way to 9% Just tap on the playhead. I'm going to be going up to 85% and at the end, all the way to 10 seconds, I'm going to be decreasing the volume all the way to 0% All right. Now if I just drag my play head all the way to the beginning and just click on play, you're going to see the fading in voice, right? Like the voice is starting all the way from zero and then it's increasing and it's getting fade out. These are all the effects which you can play around with the audience. Another tool which I want to show you is you can just split the audio track. Like I just showed you, there were two functions here, right? The levels and the edit. Now, if you tap on edit, you can just split the audio track. If I click on Split, this audio track has become split from this one. You can just tap and hold and there are different options. You can delete it. Duplicated copy, Cut Pace. Asper requires. I'm going to cut it now. Just track all the way to the beginning and tap four fingers and hit on plate and you're going to see our animation is happening. And we have imported our audio so beautifully into our animation. Likewise, you can play around with the animation and you have to make sure that the audio which you're importing goes at par with your animation. Right, that was all about how to import your audio into your animation and how to edit it. In the next lesson we are going to be showing you some other ways of animation we can do in procreate. As. Good bye for now. See you in the next lesson be. 16. Some other Animations: Hello and welcome back to a lesson. Let me show you what other animation Jack created for you. If I tap on four fingers to enter on the first screen mode and I'm just going to plate, let's just rewind it and play that. All right. Just observe all the animations happening on the background. Okay. You can see our files moving. The boat is moving the flag and the sail is moving. I've also added a few creatures here. If I just zoom and you're going to see all the different elements which I have added in this, the different leaves, fishes, bubbles coming up here. If I just again go all the way back to the beginning and case, I've added the waves, audio effects from today. Just you can play around with the different effects and audio effects. I've applied motions. That's how you can create your animations differently and you can just play around with that. Now the other animation which I want to show you is just if I hit on back and go onto the rectangles are if I just tap four fingers and just hit play, you're going to see the clouds are moving across and you're going to see our sun is changing its color slowly and steadily and the waves are coming up. You can see the animation, the warp effect happening here. All these are different styles in which you can create your animation in a different way. You can just play around with it. Now this is another animation. Let's just tap four fingers and you're going to see that I've added traffic audio effects on fix. And you can see multiple cars, colorful cars, right? And I have animated the tires and the wheels on individual layers so that I can animate them independently. All right? What I've done is that I have drawn a single car, and then I've duplicated that track, and I have changed the colors and also the positions. So you can see that I have multiple cars In our Tra, you're going to see that little tires are moving. It's creating such a cute animation. Along with the sound effects that are added from Fix. That's how you can create multiple animations. And you can just play around with different effects which we have in our procreate dreams file. I hope you enjoy this lesson. In the next lesson, we are going to be discovering a bonus file regarding all the gestures we have in our procreate dreams. Goodbye for now. See you in the next lesson. Be. 17.
