Exporting Animation

1. Exporting Your Animation: We're going to explore our animation now, and there are a few ways you can do this. If I go to the spanner here, and I click share and you have all of these different options. I'm going to go to the animated GIF. I have an estimated file size of 40.6 megabytes, which is a really large file. If you want to upload your animation to Skillshare, you only have a max of 8.4 megabytes. I'm going to show you how to reduce your Canvas size. I'm just going to cancel and I'm going to go back to gallery because I want to reduce the Canvas size, but I don't want to lose this file, so I'm going to swipe again and duplicate like we did earlier. We're going to go back to the spanner, go to Canvas and press on crop and resize. I'm going to click on resample canvas, and I'm going to put my file size to 1200 by 1200 and press done. Now I can go back and check, now this has been reduced to 7.8 megabytes so you'll be able to upload your animation to Skillshare. Going to export this now as a GIF and save image and then I can go back and check in my files and I have my animation here. But this is only one second long and to upload to Instagram you have to have at least three seconds. I'll show you how I convert this GIF into a video so I can also upload it to Instagram. Use the app GifVid and it's I think about $1 but it's really, really good because it can convert your GIFs into videos. I'm just going to click here to create, and then I'm going to select GIF to video. Then you can see in my recents, put the highest, and then it will generate this two second GIF into a video. Then I have options now to make this video a bit longer. I'm going to make it into a 10 second video and that way I can upload it to Instagram. I'm going to press on this arrow here, and now it will start to convert my GIF into a video. Then I can press on here and save video. Then I go back to my gallery, and I have the GIF that I can share to Skillshare. I also have this video that's looping for 10 seconds, that's long enough to upload to Instagram. If you guys have any issues with uploading or exporting your files, just leave a comment in the discussion and I'll get back to you. Hopefully that will make sense and I'm really excited for your animations. 2. Thank you + Speed Painting: Thanks so much for taking my class. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have. Remember to take your time and most importantly, enjoy the process. The more you practice use in the shape tool, the quicker you'll get. Don't worry if you're a bit slow at the beginning, it does get easier. Creating scenes is a long process that's so much fun, and I hope you've picked up lots of useful tips and tricks to speed up your work play. I can't wait to see your final scenes and animations. Be sure to upload them to the projects section below, along with ordinal exercises, and if you've enjoyed the class, then please leave some feedback for others to see. Thanks again guys. Bye
