Procreate Dreams - Elevate Your Social Media Content With Simple Animations - UPDATED!

1. Introduction: Social media has become an important place for creatives to show their work. But we've all experienced how tricky it can be to make people stop scrolling. So what is it that turns a quick glance into real interest? The answer is simple. Motion. Whenever something moves, our brain pays attention. That's why social media has shifted from static imagery to short form videos, but that does not mean you suddenly have to start creating complex animations or full videos. With procreate dreams, we can add simple eye catching movement to our artwork that fits our personal style and stays manageable. And that's exactly what this class is about. Hi. I'm Jutta, an artist and educator based in Germany. I have been teaching creative classes since many years, and I've worked with thousands of students around the world. In this class, we'll focus on enhancing static photos or illustration with small intentional animations using procreate dreams. From wriggly lines and moving elements to simple transitions, I'll show you practical techniques you can easily apply to your own artwork. There's no animation experience required to follow along. Just grab your iPad, your Apple pencil, and open Procreate Dreams. And then I'll see you in class. 2. About This Class: This class is structured in three parts. First, we'll build a solid foundation by getting familiar with the Procreate Dreams interface and the basics of animation. You'll learn what animation actually is and how the three animation methods frame by frame, keyframing and perform work in Procreate Dreams. In the second part, we'll get hands on and start animating. We'll take a static photo and add small playful movements to make it more engaging without turning it into a complex animation project. In the final part of this class, we'll look at transitions. You'll learn different ways to connect illustrations or photos using masks, motion and opacity and how to reuse these transitions as simple templates for future projects. I'll also show you a few examples from my own work just to give you some ideas of what's possible in Procreate Dreams. By the end of this class, you'll have a short animated clip and a clear understanding of how you can use Procreate Dreams to add motion to your social media content. So are you ready? Then let's get started. 3. Class Project: For the class project, we'll take a single image. This can be a photo, an illustration, or even a very simple sketch and turn it into a short animated clip that works well for social media. I am using a photo of myself, which I lifted from the background in the photo app and saved as a new photo. Can do the same or pick any other item you like. The goal here is not to create a complex animation or a full scene. Instead, we'll focus on adding small intentional movements that make an image feel more alive and interesting for your audience. We'll work step by step, starting with the background, then adding a few simple animated elements, and finally finishing everything off with some movements. Your project can be as simple or as playful as you like. A small wiggle, a gentle movement, or a color change can already make a big difference. By the end of this class, you'll have a short animated clip or gift that you can upload as your class project and easily share on social media. Don't worry about getting everything perfect. This project is about experimenting, getting comfortable with Procreate dreams, and seeing how a few simple animation techniques can elevate your work. So let's get started and build this together in the next lessons. 4. Procreate Dreams Interface 101: Welcome back. So in this video, I'll give you a guided walk through of the Procreate Dreams interface. I'll show you the most important sections and what the main buttons do. I strongly believe that we learn best by actually working along. So this lesson is not about memorizing everything. It's simply meant to help you feel familiar with the different areas of the app. We'll explore all the features in much more detail once we start working on our project. Let's open Procreate Dreams. Once you've opened it for the first time, you will be taken to the Procreate Dreams Theater, which is basically the same as the Procreate gallery. Here you find all your video clips, all your projects. You can drag things around. You can rename duplicate share from here. You see your basic information about the version you're working in. Here we have two more buttons, similar to Procreate gallery. It's the selection. Here you can also select and then turn them into a new folder, delete or duplicate them. The plus button enables you to just start a new movie. Here we can flip through different sizes, presets. We just pick any of those, and then we can see, do we want to start with a flipbook right away, or do we start with an empty project? Here, with the three dots, we can also set the frame rate and the duration for our video. In this case, it's set to 12 frames by second with a duration of 4 seconds. So let's open an empty project here. This is the interface when you've opened a movie. Up here, we have the stage. All around, we have the backstage, and down here we have the timeline area. Here you can zoom in and out, which also increases the increments of your ruler up here. This is the play button. Here we can go back to the theater. Here we have the settings button. Here we can set our movie settings. We can share, we can change the preferences. We can change the timeline and the movie settings, the stage, what background color? If we want to have a transparent background, onion skins, all of these things, and also we can make some changes about our project. Here we could change the frame rate and also the duration, but also the resolution, which is really handy. Timestamp in the new version from Procreate Dreams doesn't have any function anymore. It doesn't work as a button anymore. Here we have the marking button, which doesn't make anything right now because we still don't have a track added. So let's do that first. We can add a track by simply tapping the plus button and here we have a few different options. You can either upload a photo from your camera roll or a video or a file from your files app. But you can also add tracks right away like a flipbook, a drawing, a text, or just an empty track. Right now, we just want to start by adding a drawing track, which brings us into the drawing paint mode right away. And as you can see, right now, it looks way more familiar to Procreate because we have more buttons up here. The settings here is new, where we can set the onion skins, where we can change our preferences, where we can make changes to our camera, we can crop and resize. And we can insert a photo or a file from here as well. We could set adjustment filters, similar to Procreate as well. And now and this is something I'm really excited about, we now have the Lasso or selection tool. So we can select free hand. We can do a rectangle selection. We can do an ellipse shape selection, and we can remove invert copy paste, colorfll clear Procreate Dreams as well, which is really wonderful. We also have the transform tool, which doesn't do anything right now because our layer is empty. So let's get going and draw something. I'm just going to draw a squiggle here, and when I tap the transform button, I can just move it around. I can resize it. I have different settings down here, free form, distort of course, warp. If you're familiar with Procreate, you already know all of this. Over here is the brush library. Now let me show you not only have the classic library with all the brushes we already know. But right now, we also have a vast amount of animation brushes. I think it's about 180 new brushes, and they're all so cool. All right, we have this smudge tool and eraser, similar to Procreate. We also have the Layers panel. We can add new layers. We can drag them around. We can apply masks, clipping masks. Not all the features of Procreate are now in Procreate Dreams, too, but a lot are already implemented, which is fantastic. The color panel is exactly the same as we already know with classic harmony value and palettes. By the way, this stage in drawing mode is a regular canvas, and we call it canvas. And if you want to go back to the stage, you just tap the drawing button and say finished drawing, which brings you back to timeline mode. And now we can see our drawing was added and filled the entire track. We can make adjustments pretty easily. Similar to any other video editing software you might know from social media, for example, you can just drag the ends of your track, move it around. The duration handles are really a great addition to Procreate Dreams. This is our playhead. We can also move it around. We can make adjustment here. Let's just imagine the content wouldn't fill the entire track. We could just tap it, and for example, we could say fill duration, and now it's going to expand until it fills the entire duration of our video. There's a whole lot of other options we can copy and paste, we can rename, highlight whatever you want. We can even apply masks here or split. Everything is possible here by just tapping and holding this panels going to open. Can also just go back to drawing mode if we hit it drawing. Now I can show you the gesture here. Pinching and zooming in, this is something we already know, but the three finger swipe up and down will just increase the height of your timeline. What also is important to know the playhead is only going to play what's visible here in our timeline area. Imagine you would have just zoomed in pretty much. Then it would only show this area that's visible here. Nothing is broken when you don't see your entire video. It's just you need to zoom out a little bit, everything is being visible here down in the timeline. All right. We can also add a flipbook. A flipbook is very important for frame-by-frame animation. Let's do that now. I'm just going to tap the plus button, and now I'm going to pick the Flipbook it brings us back in drawing mode right away. Although it's called Flipbook mode because we have the Flipbook panel down here. Similar to the animation assist in Procreate. As we can see, we're here with 12 slots. Those slots are going to be my frames. Right now, they're empty, and I noticed, let me just quickly exit the Flipbook mode. I noticed whenever you add a new flipbook, it's going to give you a flipbook for just 1 second. And since the frame rate for our video was set to 12 frames by second, we are being left with 12 slots here. If I would have set the frame rate to, let's say, 20 or 30, it would have given me 30 empty slots here. Since I'm here in timeline mode, I can make sure that my flipbook is where I want it to be. I can just move it along the timeline, wherever I want it to be, I can tap and pull the duration handles, and if I fill the entire timeline, which I could also do by tapping and holding and say fill duration, then it gives me more slots in Flipbook. Let me show you. It Flipbook brings me back in here. And now I have a whole lot of more frame slots here, 48, which is super logical because my video is 4 seconds long and each second contains of 12 frames so that gives me 48 possible frames in total, and this is what I can work on here in my Flipbook. Procreate Dreams offers not only the Flipbook animation, but also two more, which I'm going to show you now. So let's exit the Flipbook mode. And down here, we see more buttons. We see compose, perform, and keyframe. Let's move over to keyframe. You can see right away the playhead is going to change. It's going to be turned into a clapboard, and by tapping that, we can add keyframes. In our next lesson, I will talk about keyframe in much more detail. Right now, I'm just going to show you by tapping the clapboard, it's going to open the action panel, and here we can decide what keyframes we would like to set. It can be a move and scale or it can be a filter keyframe. But again, we're going to talk more about that later in class. Then we also have the perform mode, which is dragging around an object over the canvas, which is going to be recorded in Procreate Dreams, and then you can play it. Let me show you. Let's go to Edit Drawing and let's just draw a circle here. We can finish drawing. And now let's move to perform. And now I can drag my ball around. And you can see here with the red.in the corner, Procreate Dreams is ready to record the movement I do with my Apple pencil and the object onstage. And you will also see once I start the playhead, it's going to move along the timeline and record all the movements I've done. Let me show you. And here we are. I I play now, it's going to show exactly what I did. That's super handy and very exciting. One last thing I wanted to show you, which I'm also very excited about. I Procreate Dreams now, you can share your work as an animated gif. This is such a boost because now we don't need to go any detours to upload our project to Skillshare, for example, we can just turn it into a gift, and a gift is being handled like an image and you can upload it to places where you usually cannot upload a video. So this is super handy. And if we go to Advanced Export, there you also have the option to change the format, of course, you can go to GIF, for example, but you can also export with a transparent background. Oh, my God, I was so hoping for this feature to being added, and we got it now. So now you could just easily create some gifts, some video overlays and just export them with a transparent background and then use them in whatever else social media content. This is going to help your brand and your style. To evolve even further. Let's just enable a transparent background and then it gives me the preview button. Let's tab that you can see that the background was removed. And this is what we're going to export it as now, you just see this green ball, no white in the background, and you could put that over a photo or over an existing video. There, you could really play around nicely and create fun stuff. You have a general overview now of the Procreate Dreams to interface. Don't worry, if not everything makes sense yet, that's completely normal. So let's move on now where we'll talk about what animation actually is and which options we have in Procreate Dreams, and things will get much clearer then. I promise. I'll see you there. 5. Animation 101: In this video, we're going to talk about the different ways you can animate Procreate Dreams. Animation simply means mimicking motion on a two D screen. Motion happens when an object or character is shown in one state at a certain moment. And then a few moments later, one or more of its attributes have changed. Maybe it's bigger in a different position or it has changed its shape. Your brain interprets this transition from state A to state B as movement, and that's exactly how we'll animate our illustrations, photos, or shapes by just adding the steps from point A to point B. Procreate Dreams offers three different ways to animate. Let's start with number one, the frame-by-frame animation. Let's just start a new movie. And I think I want to go with a social one and then I tap Empty just to show you what we can do. All right, in a frame-by-frame animation, you simply draw all the different stages of your movement from the beginning to the end state. If you've animated and Procreate before, this will feel familiar. Procreate Dreams offers a similar Flipbook function for this. Let's just enter it by tapping the plus button and then choose Flipbook. So here we find the same kind of flipbook we might already know from Procreate. These are the slots, as mentioned before, for your Flipbook pages, and we can add more by tapping the plus button. Once it's white, it's going to be filled with a frame. The black ones are just empty slots. Since the last update, we can also add new tracks here by just tapping this button. And we can add as many as we want. And this is really, really handy if you plan on making more complex designs. Let's just undo for now. We are fine with just one track. As I said before already, what I've noticed is Procreate Dreams will always start with a flipbook that has the duration of 1 second and uses the frame rate you set when starting a new project. In my case, that was 12 frames per second. So this is what I see here. 12 slots are ready to be filled. We can leave the flipbook again by tapping here, finish drawing. And then we can see the flipbook is just containing 1 second in our timeline. And if we want it to fill, we just drag the handle here to the very end. And now we have the snapping in place. Did you see the little red line here? You can see it snaps into place, and then we know we reached the end of our timeline. And now we will have like 4 seconds by 12 frames, which gives me 48 frames again. So this is the position where I want my flipbook for now. We can start our actual frame-by-frame animation. So now we just tap edit Flipbook again, which brings us back to the canvas and I Flipbook mode. What I want to do is draw a simple wave moving across the canvas. We can pick our brush here. Let's just go with molluskin right now, and I want to just draw a wave here over the canvas. Now, you can see we can draw beyond our actual canvas here, but it won't be visible. And I can show you by using the fore fingertap now we see the entire visible stage or canvas area, and you can see the leftover stroke is not there. By tapping with four fingers again, we come back to the drawing mode. So that's stage number one. Let's move on. And as you can see, our line now turned into purple. This is what's called an onion skin. The onion skin show you what's in your frame before, and if so, in your next frame, the frame that's coming next. Since we didn't draw anything on frame three yet, we don't see the second onion skin, but we see the one before, which is really handy because I want the wave here, this hill of our wave I want it to move across the canvas. It's really handy that I can see where the initial start was. Let's draw a wave like this. Now let's add another frame, and our actual wave is going to move across here. Let's add another frame. And maybe another one. And now you see there's multiple purple lines, and they all have a different opacity. So the lighter they get, the further away they are. And we can change that. If this is too distracting for you, we can just go to settings and to onions. Here, we can make our adjustments. We could turn down the number of onion skins. Now I can only see two frames from before. And now I can only see the one previous frame. We could play with the opacity and we also could play with the color, whatever we want. Maybe we want to add just one more. And now let's play and see what we've got. So we can see our wave is moving on stage. And since it's pretty fast, it looks like really, really hectic. But that's fine. We could make more adjustments, for example, by just tapping the frame, and then I could set a different frame duration. Maybe we just keep it for two frames, then it's not going to be so hectic. I can also make some adjustments here with opacity or blend mode. I could insert a new frame. I can copy, paste, duplicate everything that you wish for. So now let's just change the frame duration from each of our frame to two. As you can see, it fills two slots now. That just means we don't need to duplicate it. We just tell Procreate Dreams. It needs to show us the frame a little longer. And now when we play it, it's way slower and looks really nice like this. Perfect. I just wanted to show you another way of animating. This is the wiggly line animation. This is something that's really, really common and also super helpful. So what I just did is I added another track. I unchecked this box here so that our green line here disappears. If I start here, I'm just going to draw three lines from top to bottom. I add a new frame and I just draw over these lines again. So this is a very, very simple way to add movement to attic photo or illustration. Maybe we do one more, and then I show you. And it's going to look like our lines would be dancing. And that's a really nifty and quick and easy way to add some visual interest to any content you want to upload. We're going to make more of that later on in class. So frame-by-frame animation is really fun and simple, although it can be a bit tedious depending on what you want to animate. So that brings us to our next possibility of animation in Procreate Dreams, which is the keyframing. Let's just now add a new drawing track by tapping the plus and tap drawing. So let's go back, though. I just don't want to see our green stuff here, so we make it invisible by just tapping this little check mark here, which turns it on and off. And then I also want my drawing to be visible the entire duration of our clip. Now I want to draw something, so I tap added drawing. Let me just quickly draw a very simple flower pot. As you can see, I'm just adding layers intuitively as I would do in Procreate as well. And now I want to create a clip where the flower pot fall maybe from a window sill, a few stories above me, and I just see through my window. So I want it to fall from top to bottom. I just feel it's a little bit too big now. So what I want to do is I want to just group all the layers together, mark the group, go to my transform tool, say uniform, and then I make it a little bit smaller. All right. Let's exit drawing mode and go back to our timeline. Keyframes define the extreme positions or states of an object. Unlike the flip book, where I would have to draw all the different stages, Procreate Dreams now calculates all the steps in between two keyframes automatically, which is super handy. So we're here now back in timeline, and we want to switch to keyframe mode, which is this button down here. These diamond shapes here might be familiar for you. In all the video editing softwares, a keyframe is shown with this diamond. Icon. All right. And now we have the clapbok here again. I move the playhead to the beginning of the track. Then I tap the clapboard, which opens the action panel and I choose move, and then move and scale. You can see now a small additional track with an icon, and this is the keyframe that saves the object's position at this moment in the clip. I can now position my object where I want it to be, and I want my flower pot to start backstage here above my stage. I can still see it. I hope so can you. That's also really handy that you see the backstage area, even though it's not going to be shown in the video. Now I want to define the end state of our flower pot. I'm going to move this playhead around to the very end. Then you can see now it's without color, but as soon as I tap it, it's going to turn white, which means I've set a keyframe here and now I can change the flower pots position. Now I just want to drag it down to the bottom of the stage. Let's play and see where we're at. So it looks like my flower pot takes an elevator down. So this is, for sure, not what I want it to look like. So I want it to fall naturally. First of all, let's check the easing. Easing is something that's built in and Procreate. We can find it by just tapping the keyframe track. And here we see set all easings. So we could just choose here in between. Usually, I like linear the best. That means it falls at the same time from the beginning to the end. Let's check and see how that looks. It's still way too slow. So I think the reason is because my flower pot takes 4 seconds to fall alongside my window, which is not natural. So let's just move our keyframe. We just move it closer to the beginning and then it falls faster. Let's see if that's enough. Ah, that looks much better already. That looks more natural, so we can drag the keyframe even further and play it again. Yes, this is how a flower pot would look like when it falls. We can increase that it's faster. Let's do the fore finger tap. Yes, this is how a flower pot falls out of the window. So now if I would want to my flower pot to change color, for example, I would have to move up the playhead here that it turns into the clapboard again. Then I can tap it and I can say filter. So let's check how about we go to change the color. So we will set it to Ages B, which means hue saturation brightness. So that sends a new keyframe underneath. So, right, let's move that. Let's move it here. I set a keyframe here, and then I change the color. I just drag this one around. Then let's move it further, set another keyframe and turn it into this direction. Then in the end, how about we're going to move it there? All right. Let's try and see what we've got. Now, we've gotten a flower pot that even changes the color. That's really handy. There's a lot of things you can do with keyframes. And now let me show you the last animation method you can use in Procreate Dreams. So let's exit the keyframe mode and move over to perform. Now, perform is really the method where animators get really excited about because it makes animation incredibly intuitive. Let's hide our previous track and start new. We're going to add a new one. We're going to make it a drawing track, and I just want to draw another flower. The problem is, when you're in perform mode, everything you do will be recorded. So let's undo that what we've did before. Let's start over, but we want to go to compose first. Alright. So let's go to compose. Let's add a new drawing. And then I want to draw another flower. And in my next step, let's finish drawing. I noticed that my flower doesn't fill the entire canvas, so I'm just going to drag the handle. So this is my flower, and I want it to be in the center. All right. And in my next step, I want to add a bee. So let's add another drawing track on top. I would want this bee to fly into the picture, sit down on the flower, and then fly away. And this is super easy to create with perform. Let's finish drawing and make sure our bee fills the entire duration of our timeline. And I wanted to show you something very handy as well. So if you would think you would want to move the wings, for example, you could just convert the layers, the different layers you've added in drawing mode. You could just convert them into tracks. Tap and hold the track, and then you say convert drawing layers into tracks. And now you see it has changed into a group which I can open. And here I can see all the different layers I've drawn earlier. So for now, I'm happy to move the entire B. I'm gonna just place it outside of the canvas, and then I'm going to move over to perform mode. I make sure my playhead is at the very beginning. So now I'm just gonna drag. You can see it's ready to record. Now I'm just gonna drag my B. Drag it into the image and then out again. So let's see how it looks like. It comes in, it sits down, and then it flies away. The keyframes are added automatically in Procreate Dreams due to the perform mode. You can see there's a whole lot of key frames, and it just does everything on its own. So that's super exciting and really, really handy. Alright. Now you know the three animation approaches available in Procreate Dreams. So with these methods, you can animate illustrations, add playful motions to images or even create your own cartoons or short films. So let's move on in class, and now we're going to start our project where we'll create a visually interesting clip out of a photo to post on social media. I'll see you there. 6. Project Background: Alright. Let's get started with the background of our class project. We're gonna open Procreate Dreams. And we tap the plus icon to create a new movie. Now we're going to scroll until we reach social because we're planning to upload our project to social media. Here with the three dots, we can pick the duration and the frames per second. And that's exactly what we need. The seconds is perfectly fine, and 12 frames is also absolutely sufficient for our purposes. Of course, you can go as long as you want. And then we tap empty which creates our project. So here we are with our stage, our backstage, and our timeline area. So first of all, we want to create an image in the background. For that, we just need to tap the plus icon and add a new drawing. And here we are in drawing mode. I want to draw like a very textured background. So I'm going to pick one of those new wonderful brushes here from the paint set, and I'm going to go with the stone fly brush. And as of the color, I want to go with my pink you. And then I'm just gonna roughly fill the canvas, try not to do too much to keep some of the lovely texture. And that's enough. I just want to add a little bit of orange, as well, just to create more interest. So I pick my orange, and then I just make some random orange marks. So that's enough of texture for our background, so we can finish the drawing mode by just tap drawing and finish. And as we can see, the drawing duration is exactly over the entire 3 seconds in our timeline. All right. In our next step, we want to have a little scribble that builds gradually in the background. And we are going to create that in flipbook mode. Let's tap the plus icon and add a new Flipbook. We set our frame rate to 12 frames by second, and that's why it gives us 12 slots. What we could do now if we would want to have more, we could exit the flipbook mode and we could just drag the duration handles here. And to fill the entire background with scribble, we need a lot of frames. So I've just pulled the duration handle from 12 where it was before over to fill the entire timeline. Alright. And to work on our flipbook, we just tap edit Flipbook, and it brings us back into this stage in drawing mode with a whole lot of frames here on the bottom. So I want a yellow squiggle line starting in the top right corner and building up across the screen. Let me show you. Just go to pick my yellow. And this time, let's see, I'm going to go with a vanilla lily brush from the bristle set. So let me draw what I mean. And that's it. Now, this is what I wanted to look at the very end, but I want to have it starting gradually and building up over the course of our movie. So how can we achieve that? Well, we could, of course, start with tiny little increments frame by frame, adding onto it and make it larger and bigger until it covers the entire screen. The problem is, however, since I'm using a very texturized brush, this is pretty difficult to achieve seamlessly. You would probably see where I've ended in this frame and started for the next frame. That's not going to work so well. Instead, we are going to work in reverse. So we start with our end result and just erasing gradually pieces off of it until we are at the very beginning. And to do that, that's very simple here down there in the flip book. We can just tap this frame, and we can say duplicate. This is going to be our end frame. This is what we're going to have at the very latest, the full stroke across the canvas. So we need to move one frame before this is the one on spot number one, and then we're going to erase part of the stroke. To do that seamlessly, we're going to use the eraser with the same brush. So I am on vanilla lily, and by tapping the eraser and holding it, we can erase with a current brush. Let's just check tada, it's vanilla lily in the bristle section. And now I only need to erase part of the stroke. However, I want my stroke to stay a little longer at the very end. So I'm going to set the duration of this frame, our end frame. I'm going to set it to, let's say, three frames. This fills, as we can see, this fills one, two, three frames lots already. So now we go onto this one. And we're going to start with the erasing. Let's duplicate this frame again, move to number one and erase more of it. And you can see it erases nicely textured, as well. When we watch it in reverse, it really looks like the stroke is building up. Let's move to frame number one. Say duplicate, move to the first one again and erase even more. And this is how we're going to proceed now until we've erased all of the stroke. Okay. And now we see a mistake. You can see the onion skin here starts to be purple, and that's because there's a frame before where the stroke is still visible, and that's not what we want. So we made a mistake. We didn't move to frame number one, so we need to undo the erasing on frame number two and move to frame number one and erase here instead. So that's very handy in case you, like me, forget to move to frame number one. You can see me checking in between where we're at, how many frames we've left, and I think we're doing well. So now I've erased everything. Let's see how many frames we've left. We have two more left, so I can set the duration of this one. Let's say 25. Awesome. And now drum roll. Let's see what we've got. We move it in the center that we can see it in its full glory and to play. Yay. The stroke is building up and staying for a little while. That's amazing. I love that effect. Of course, you can add as many lines or effects as you wish. You could just add another track here and go really wild. But I will move on to the next lesson just to keep the class at a reasonable length. And in the next lesson, we will add the main motif and give it some fancy effects. I'll see you there. Is 7. Main Motif: All right. Now it's time to add our main motif. So let's leave the flipbook. Here we are back in our timeline, and by tapping the plus, we are getting the option to add a new photo. So you tap that. All right, here we are. Of course, it's way too big. So let's decrease the size of my main motif. Then we can also drag the duration handle to the very beginning. First of all, I think there's not enough contrast between the main motif and the background. I can also see the edges need a little bit of cleanup. That's what I'm just going to do. It says, edit drawing anyway, so I'm going to tap that. Then I will pick one of the air brushes, maybe maybe the soft airbrush like this. And this is what I'm going to use as eraser, and I'm just going to clean up the edges here. Wow. And you can see it totally works like Procreate, very intuitive. You just go ahead and do what you'd normally do when you paint in Procreate. All right. That's enough. So what I would like to add is a white outline around the main motif, and this is supposed to be a wiggiy line. And to do that, we need to exit the drawing mode. And here we're back in our timeline. So since I want the stroke to be behind myself, I need to add a track underneath the main motif. So it's similar to Procreate. You just tap the layer. In our case, it's a track. We tap plus, and then we said add a new flip. As we already know, Rigali lines need a few frames. So let's go with one, two, three, four frames, maybe. We just add them, and the rest we won't need, we will just duplicate these four frames. However, we need to make sure that our flip books goes over the entire duration of our clip, which it does not right now. So let's move it to the beginning and then just pull the handle until the very end of our timeline. All right. Now we can go back to dit Flipbook, start with our first frame, pick a nice fun brush. Let's see. This time we're going to go with maybe let's go with Tewksbury in in the mono line set and we decrease the brush size a little bit. We pick white, and then we're just going to go ahead and draw an outline around the main motif. However accurate, I leave that up to you. If you know me, you know, I'm a messy drawer, so I'm just gonna do it in a messy way. All right. And let's repeat the same step on frame number two. On frame number three. And then on the last frame, Alright, so let's see what we've got now. That looks fantastic. I just think if we play it, it's too hectic for my taste. So I guess I want to give each frame like the duration of two frames, maybe. By tapping and holding, frame duration, set it to two. Same here. Alright, let's check how it looks now. Oh, yeah, that's much better. It just wriggles nicely and not too hectic. So that's perfect. Of course, we not only want this white outline in the first eight frames. No, we want to have it over the whole duration. So we need to fill all these slots, but we don't need to draw it all over again. We can just mark it. This is our marking. Icon. So I'm going to just mark all the four frames which are technically eight right now. And then I tap and hold again, and I say, duplicate. Tada, here they are. And we repeat the same step, duplicate duplicate, and let's see how many art books. And let's see how many are left over now. Two are leftover. So let's mark these two and duplicate them again and Tada. So let's play and see what we've got. Yes, that looks amazing with a stroke in the background. Now we can clearly tell apart the main motif from the background that looks fantastic. Okay, in our next step, I want to cover the blouse. It looks so boring. I think it needs to have some really fancy pattern. So to do that, we're going to exit the Flipbook mode. And we're going to add a new drawing track on top of the main motif by just tapping the plus, and say, add a new drawing. And here we're back in drawing mode. And another new feature that's really wonderful is the selection tool or Lasso tool. It enables us to just select a certain area and just manipulate this one. So this is what I'm going to do now. I'm going to select the blouse now. I go by just drawing all around the edges. Now, you can see the stripe, similar to Procreate, where the stripes are. This is what I cannot manipulate. And here the entire blouse area is without stripes. So here I can do my manipulations. And I want to add some just some colorful stripes here. Let's see which brush am I using. How about we go with the spike rush brush? Decrease the size a little bit. Let's pick yellow again. I'm just going to draw whatever lines here. Alright. Cool. And then I will add another layer. And I will do that with a different color. How about we go with orange this time in a different direction? Okay, and how about we go to go with Let's go with green now. And again, we change the direction. And add another layer, and let's go with blue. Maybe in this direction now. We can go as wild as we want. Of course, you could also add patterns like flowers or dots or whatever you find interesting. You just go with what you like best. Alright, here we go. And I don't want these stripes to appear at the same time, but alternating. And to do that, we can manipulate the layers in our timeline. So let's exit drawing mode. And here we have our drawing and now it looks like they're all on top of each other, but we can change that. We can just tap and hold the track and then we can say convert drawing layers to tracks, and that's what we're going to do. Now it is changed here into a group. I hope you can see that. Here's the word group. I I open that, I see the four layers we drew earlier. Now I want them to appear in increments. We can just set the duration of this one. We just turn it down and have this one starting afterwards. This maybe. And then we have the green one. And in the end, we have the blue one. And it's very nice. They as you can see, they snap into place really handy, and now they should appear one after another. Let's check. Yes, this is exactly what I want. This is so cool. Great. And in our final step, to give this main motif a little bit more interest, I would also give the sunglasses some fancy effects. So let's add another track on top of our group here with the blouse embellishment, and we make it a drawing track. Tada. Here we go. On layer one. I want to give my sunglasses a nice color. How about we make it white? The outline of our sunglasses, let's see, I think I want to use the looper brush here, one without jagged edges here. Oops, that's too big. And then I'm just gonna go around the outline of my sunglasses here. Here we go. Yes. Yes, but I think it should be green. Yes, I like that a lot. And then we also need some colored sunglasses, like the lenses themselves. So we're going to add a new layer and we drag it underneath the frame of our glasses. And then I'm just going to pick pink. And in the course of our video, I wanted to change the color. Okay, let's exit the drawing mode and go back to our timeline. And here we see Oh, sunglasses has been added into the group. Okay, that's no problem. We just pull it out there and pull it on top. And, of course, we want it to fill the entire duration. We just tap fill duration. And we just drag the handle to where we need it to be. All right. Now the sunglasses are there for the entire time. But as I said, I want the glasses themselves change the colors. And we can do that in keyframe mode. So let's move over to keyframe mode here. So we want to set a key frame here at the very beginning. Let me increase the height that you can see it better. So by tapping the clap box here, we can choose between move or filter. And what I want to add now is a filter keyframe and one with saturation brightness. So I'm going to tap that. Alright. We want to keep the color here with pink. We move forward now, add another keyframe, and now we're going to just draw the slider here. How about this color? Looks great. And then I'm going to move the playhead forward and the slider here to blue. Alright, so let's check and see what we have. And as you can see, the glasses are changing their colors automatically. Yeah, that looks amazing. And super colorful already. The entire clip is just a little bit too static for my taste. I think it could use some movement, and that's what we're going to do in our next video, and I will see you there. 8. Adding Motion: Alright, welcome back. So now let's add some movement to our main motif, because it just stands there, and that's a little bit too static, too boring. And now we've added a lot of embellishment to our main motif, but we want to have it all move at the same time together. So we need to make them all belong together so we can apply the effects to the entire main motif with all the embellishments. And for that, we can just simply group all the layers belonging to the main motif, the white outline, the main character, all these four layers and the sunglasses too. And then we tap and hold and we say group, Tata now it looks like it's just one track, but in fact, it's the group with all of our tracks. So it's easier to manipulate right now by just adding keyframes to the group. What I want my clip to start with is with the main motif not being in the picture yet. So I want it to boom, pop up. Let's do that by adding a move keyframe. So I'm going to tap this here and tap move and scale. Then I move the playhead a little bit further and tap again. At the very beginning of our timeline, I want the main motif to be out of the frame. Let's add a keyframe here and move the main motif downwards, drag it and move it down. If you play now, you see it pops up. It could even be a little bit faster, so I'm going to drag the second keyframe a little bit closer. Let's see. Yes, it jumps up. Maybe a little bit. How about this? Now, then we can't see it. Okay. Let's keep it where it is here. It jumps up now. Okay. And once it is up, I want it to kind of bob a little bit. We can do that very easily in perform mode. So we gonna switch to perform. And I'm just gonna move the motif around until we have this point here. Let's see how it looks. All right. And in our next step, I want to start the process where the main motif disappears out of the image again. I wanted to go out this way, but this is nothing I can do in perform mode because we're shortly at the end of our clip. So let's go over to keyframe mode and just add the keyframes manually. So I'm going to move over the playhead to here and I'm going to drag my motif a little bit to the left first. And then I'm going to move it over here, tap it again, and then I'm going to move it out of the picture like this. Now let's see what we've achieved. It looks super fun. By doing the fore finger tap, we see it in all its glory. Yes, I really like it. I really think this adds a lot of interest. It's super colorful. Of course, you can go with your own gut or what suits your own style and add as much or as little of effects. But you know now how you can add those fancy little embellishments and make your photo so much more interesting. Alright, then let's move on to the next lesson where I will show you how you can export your artwork that you can actually upload it both to the project gallery but also to social media. I will see you there. 9. Export Artwork: All right. Now I want to show you how we can export our artwork. We need to exit the full screen mode by just either tapping back or do another four finger tap. To export our artwork, we just need to hit this slider button, and here we have all the settings, and we're just going to tap the share button. Here we see we can share it as animated gift as video, frames as images, whatever. What we're going to go for now is an animated gift. Just tapping it, it's going to save it right away to your camera roll. However, we don't know about the quality. So let's do that again because we need the advanced settings. Let's tap the slider again, go to Advanced Export. We want to set the format to a gift. Then we need to make sure we decrease the amount of colors. Let's go with 256 and let's see where we're at. By tapping the share button, it's going to render it for us and we can just check and see how it looks. And I think the quality is okay. Let's try and share and see where we're at. Let's go find it in our camera role and see how it looks like. And I think it's absolutely fantastic. So you go ahead now and create your project and upload this to the Project Gallery. Now, we're going to move on, and I will show you some more tricks you can do with Procreate Dreams by adding transitions to your artwork or your photos. I will see you there. 10. Transition "Brush Reveal": Welcome to this part of the class in which we have a closer look at transitions. But before we jump into the technique, let's quickly talk about why transitions are useful in the first place. Transitions help guide the viewers' eyes and make changes feel intentional. Instead of a hard cut, they give the audience a moment to understand something is changing and where to look at next. Especially for social media, transitions can turn a static image into something more engaging without turning it into a full blown animation project. And just as important, transitions don't have to be loud or dramatic. Sometimes a very subtle transition is enough to support storytelling and create a smoother, more professional flow. I want to show you how you can use it from an illustrator's perspective, but the same works for photos, too. So let's get started with this lessons transition, which is called Brush reveal. It's a very typic, a very classic transition method, and you even see it filmed top down where an illustrator uses their Apple pencil over Procreate to reveal their illustration. You can also see that in old Gib animes or cartoons, where a literal brush is transitioning from one scene to the next. We can do that without having a real brush or hand moving over the screen. So let's first start a new movie by tapping the plus, and then we just pick whatever's screen, and we go with empty. In this one, I want to transition from one illustration to another one. And I know my illustrations are in the size 2000 by 2,500 pixels. So I'm going to change the settings of my stage by just tapping our little slider button here. Go to Project and change the resolution. So I'm going to type in 2000 by 2,500 pixels. This is going to change the size of my stage right away. My video has the duration of 4 seconds with a frame rate of 12 frames per second, which is absolutely fine for now. In the next stage, I want to import my illustration. I tap the plus icon, I tap photo, and then I pick the two illustrations I would like to add. Tap add and here we are. Alright, here we have two cute little acorns. One is just picking a flower. And if we move along, here we having the boy handing over the flower he just picked to the girl. So there's a little storytelling going on between the two illustrations. And without a transition, it would just make a harsh cut from here to there. Since we are working with masks here to create the brush reveal, we need to make sure that the illustration we want to show at the very end is on top of our timeline. So that's what we got to do. We're just going to move this track, one track above. Now since our video is 4 seconds long, both illustration just fill half of our timeline, and we can just change that by tap and hold, and by tapping, fill duration. Now let's do that with the other illustration as well, fill duration. Now, both illustrations are on top of each other and fill the entire timeline. But we see the wrong one in the first place. This is the end illustration we just want to see at the very end of our little movie, and to achieve that, we want to mask this illustration and we can do that by tapping the plus button and tap add a new flipbook. Here we go. But now we need to make sure that it is in the right position and has the right length for our purpose. So let's exit the flipbook mode once more. And here we can see it doesn't really start from the very beginning. Let's do that now. We just pushed it over, and then we just tap and hold and say again, fill duration. We said we are going to apply a mask for this illustration, and it's equally simple. We just tap and hold the flipbook track and here we have the option to add a mask. So let's tap that. We don't need a clipping mask right now. What we want to do is we want to apply an Alpha mask. That's going to make this illustration invisible right away. Let's tap it. And here we go. We see the starting point where the little boy acorn here is picking his flower. All right. And if I turn it off the mask here, you can see the second illustration is still here. It's just invisible, and that's exactly what we need right now. Now we want to work a little bit on our flipbook. So let's tap Added Flipbook. Both in procreate but also Procreate Dreams, layer or track mask work similarly. It sounds a little bit confusing in the beginning, but bear with me. Technically, the layer mask works by covering up what's underneath, but by using the white color, you can reveal what's underneath. Let's just go and pick a brush. How How about we pick Emu River brush. When I'm just using the brush here over the image, it reveals what's underneath. If I draw more, you can see it totally reveals the illustration underneath. And that's exactly the beauty of this transition technique. So let's undo that. This is where we started at. The first half of our clip now, I want this illustration to be visible. And in the second half of our clip, I want the other illustration to be visible. And to move over from Illustration A to Illustration B, I want a stroke. Kind of drawing across the screen and revealing what's underneath. We have 48 frames in total, since our clip is 4 seconds long and each second contains of 12 frames. So that means, let's say, the first 18 frames I want to use for our starting illustration for Illustration A. So let's add one frame here. Tap and hold and set the duration to 18. All right. We can see now this frame has blocked the first 18 slots here. In our next step, let's add a new frame here. And now from frame 19 onwards, we want to start with the brush reveal. You have a lot of options in regards to where your stroke comes from and what it's doing. Since my main illustration part is only in the center, I'm just going to go diagonally. You go with whatever you like best. So I want to make sure my brush is at the whitest white we have. Let's check and see. I think the Emu River is okay. We can maybe increase the brush size a little bit, and now I'm going to make my first stroke. Similar to what we did in our background of our class project exercise, I'm going to do the same now here on this image. I've added one stroke. I'm going to duplicate this frame. So we have the same situation here, and now I can reveal more. And we go on now like this. We just duplicate our frames, and we reveal more and more of the illustration underneath. Duplicate and draw using white, revealing more and more from what's underneath. You can take as much time as you want. We have a lot of frames left. Now we reveal the entire illustration from underneath. Let's just see where we're at. Can you see it? Here it works. Very nice. We just have the problem here that from our reveal to the next frame, we go back to the beginning illustration, and that's, of course, not what we want. So what can we do? We just need to fill this canvas with white completely. Now it's gone. This is something you can really memorize. Black hides and white reveals. It's super simple once you've understood the concept, Black hides, white reveals. You don't need much more. Alright. So now we want to keep the white until the very end because we want this illustration to be visible until the very end of the clip. So let's see how many frames we've left. Okay, we have 18. So let's just tap and say frame duration, 18. And now we can see this goes until the very end. Let's play it again now. Here's the beginning, and here's the reveal. Oh, this is so cute. Let's just watch it in full screen. Yes, this is super nice. I think it works really, really well. Let's do our four fingertap to go back to Flipbook mode. So now we've created not a huge dramatic, but a very subtle change that really underlined our storytelling from one illustration to the next. Again, by changing up the stroke direction, you can create different effects. Something I really wanted to mention here, you can use this one as a template. Let's go back to our timeline. You could just go ahead and use this as a template and just exchange the two illustrations underneath. Then you could just use it over and over again without creating the transition nearly every time. If you want a more dramatic kind of transition, I've exchanged my bottom illustration. I've started out with the sketch. This is something you see fairly often. I start out with my sketch, and then it reveals into the finished illustration. This time, I've used a circular brush reveal technique. I was just starting in the center and getting bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger until the illustration was fully revealed. Let me show you Here you can see the circular reveal from the center outwards. So as you can see, you have all the possibilities in the world. You just go and play around and find something that suits your style or your brand. Now let's move on to the next lesson where I show you even more transition methods. I will see you there. 11. More Transitions: Okay. All right. Now, let me show you some more examples for cool transition. And this time, we'll use keyframes to create them. So as usual, let's start with a new canvas. Just pick any, say empty. And since I know I want to add some of my illustrations again, and I know their resolution, I'm going to change them right away. My preferred size usually is 2000 by 2,500. Just because I know that the ratio where Instagram is really happy with the duration is still set to 4 seconds with a frame rate of 12 frames per second, and that's totally fine. In this one, I want to create three different transitions between some artwork of mine. So let me add the artwork first. Let's go to the plus. Let's go to photo and then I'm going to pick these four images here. These were artworks I've made for the mindful tober drawing challenge, which is a drawing challenge in October, I host with three other skilled chaptp teachers. And to be able to show the four of them, I wanted to create a little clip. So Procreate Dreams is really helpful with that. So now we can see I've added the four illustrations here to this timeline. The only thing is when transitioning from one illustration to the next, there needs to be a little bit of overlapping. So by having them all in one track, that's not going to work. So let's move them a little bit around. So let's move this, drag it up a track, and a new track will be added right away. Alright, let's go on here. To not have the harsh cut moving from this to that, I want to show you the first transition method which is called push and pull transition. In this case, I want the second image that's coming in, basically pushing the first image out of the screen. And this is really simple. Let's just increase our timeline a little bit. And here it is where we have to have the overlapping. So let's just pull the duration handle of this illustration and move it to frames, and then on this illustration and move it to frames as well. Let's just turn up the visibility of the top one because we won't be able to see what happens if we don't I move the playhead to kind of this position. And here I will set my first keyframe. Now, I cannot do that. I compose, I need to switch to keyframe mode. Here we go. So I'm going to tap that little clapboard. And I want to say move and move and scale. Alright. And now I want to move it over here. And tap again to add another keyframe. And now I want to change the position of my image when the playhead arrives at this keyframe. So we just tap the illustration, and then we just move it out of the image. But we keep our finger on screen that it stays snapped. And here we go. Now we cannot see it anymore. It's moved off stage. And now let's go up to this illustration, turn it on again. Tap it, tap the clapboard, tap, move, move and scale, to add a keyframe here and to add another keyframe here. So at this moment in time, the other illustration is moved out, and this is moved in, so perfectly visible. But at this position here, we cannot see. We should not be able to see this illustration. We need to move it out of this side of our stage. Let's tap it. Let's move it right out of stage. And that's what it is. Now, let's check and see what we have now. So here we are with our first illustration and by moving forward, it's been pushed out of the image and the second illustration appears. That's really fun. Let's see. Chip. And there it happened. Okay, that's transition number one. Now we need transition number two. And here we don't really need an overlapping. What I want Illustration Number two, towards the end is getting really big, like zooming in. So we want to do another keyframe situation. So I'm kind of here maybe maybe here. I don't know. Let's try how it looks when we go here, and we need to change back to keyframe mode. And then at this position, we want to set another keyframe, another move and scale keyframe here. So this is the moment where the illustration starts to grow. So we move the playhead to the very end here. And this is where I want it to be, like, really, really big. So I'm going to set a keyframe, and I'm gonna scale it, let's say, let's type in. How about 15? And here as well. Alright. Now it's really big. And I want to be in some sort of colored area. So let's tap the image and move to a color here. Now, we're in turquoise. Alright, and you can see we'll be able to see why that's important. So let's see how it looks. Let's go back to compose. And now we see it's growing and getting really big. We want to change the easing though, because it all of a sudden jumps to being very big. So let's set all the easings. And we can do that by just tapping here on the keyframe track and set all easings. And then we just want to have it linear. Let's see now. It should be grow wing linear. Great. All right. So now we can go to this illustration. And here in the beginning, we also want to start with 15. So let's tap the clapboard. Let's move and scale. And then we make it really big by tapping here 15 and here 15 as well. All right, which makes it really big. But now I want to find a spot that's turquoise as well. We just need to move it down a tiny little bit. So here's turquoise. And then we move the playhead a little bit further, set another keyframe. And here we want the illustration to be in their original size again. So we just tap one here and one there. All right. And then we move it into its position by one and one. And here we have it in the center again. So now let's check and see what we've got. Go back to perform. So here we are. It goes bigger and bigger and bigger. And then it zooms out, and it shows another illustration. That's really nifty. So cool. All right. And for our next, I want to use, like, a dissolving transition, which is really nice too. But again, here we need a little bit of overlap between our illustrations. So let's make this two frames wider to this direction. And this one also two frames wider in the other direction. Okay. And then for now, let's turn the visibility of the last one off. And move the playhead over here. And then again, we want to add a keyframe here. Let's go back into keyframe mode. Make sure this illustration is marked, and we tap keyframe again. But this time, we want to set a filter keyframe. So let's tap that. And here we have a few different options. Right now, I want to go with opacity. So let's tap opacity. And at this moment in time, I still want this illustration to be fully visible. That means the opacity is with 100%. All right. But at the very end, I want the image to dissolve to not be visible anymore, so that means I need to set the opacity to zero. Tada. Of, it is. And now we do the opposite on our last illustration. So let's move the play head over here. We need to turn it on, though. At this moment in time, this illustration should not be visible. So we tap the clapboard, tap filter, opacity and turn the opacity down to zero. Alright. So now we moved the clapboard over there. And here we set the next keyframe. And here we want it to be fully visible. Tara. Alright. Now let's go back and compose and try to see where we're at. So one starts to dissolve and the other starts to appear. This is amazing. Alright, so let's check and see what we've got. Remember to rescale your timeline because it's going to be playing only in the visible areas. If you don't see everything in your timeline, it won't play the four video. So Alright, now we see all the four illustrations and we can just have a look at it. Cool. Let's watch in full length, in full size. Awesome. I really like them. And again, this sky is the limit here. You can just go ahead and create so much fun things with the transitions in Procreate Dreams. So I hope you also play around with transitions. And don't forget to show us whatever you've created in the project gallery. We're really curious to see what you come up with. So let's move on to the next lesson where I show you some more example I've done in Procreate Dreams. I will see you there. 12. "Oh, the places you'll go!": And welcome back. I've promised you that I'm going to show you a few more examples I did in Procreate Dreams. So let's start with this one. So here you can see me on a travel in the mountains, in New York. Well, I'm on a boat, on a sea and in Japan watching Mount Fuji. So how did I do that? Well, that was fairly simple, to be honest. First of all, I've created the illustrations. I've created the background, the foreground. I just drew them in Procreate. Then I imported them here in Procreate Dreams. This is my little motif. I just placed it in between the tracks here. And then I just moved the foreground and the background layer to the left. So it leaves the impression I'm moving forward. And then I created a little transition. Since I'm an illustrator, I wanted it to be visible. Here I'm just creating something like just strokes filling up this screen. It's similar to a brush reveal. It's just not with a mask, but it's just filling the canvas with color. Then the same here, I created the background and the taxi. The taxi was just a photo I found on, I think Pixa Bay. I just cut out the windows and put myself behind so it looks like I'm sitting in the taxi. Then again, the taxi and I, we are still and the background is just moving. And here we have another transition with colors towards the boat. Here we have me in the boat, and in the foreground there the waves. And in the background, there's the island and the palm tree, and they're just moving across Tata Oh, and here I also created with perform mode, I created a little bobbing of the ship so that you can think it would move along the waves. And here we have another transition, and here the same basically. In the background, it's Mount Fuji and some temple. If we go along, there's a temple. And in the foreground, of course, the cherry trees. And I put myself into Ericsha, which was, again, a photo I found on Pixar Bay, where I just erased all the people sitting in there and put myself on top. What else I did for this one, I added some soundtracks. Let me show you. I added some audio. I also found on Pixar Bay, they not only have videos and photos, but they also have little sound effects. So I have the swoosh sound. That's the whoosh sound. And then I've added some wind, some Asian flute music. And this is just what you can hear in the background. Let's play it once more. Bird like some traffic sounds, the water and wind and the mount Fuji and the flute. And to have it seamlessly playing, let me show you once more. I've added a transition at the end and at the beginning of the clip. So it starts here and goes over there. That creates this infinite loop. I've also created this fun little clip here. Let me show you. Where we have a little candy moving across the scene. It's just a photo I took from this licorice role here, and then I drew a little face in Flipbook mode. Let me ungroup. Here I drew the eyes and in the course, the eyes are even blinking. Here they're closed, and here they're open again. It makes it really lively. I also applied some keyframes to this one, it's the rolling one. That's why it's rolling across the board, the licorice roll. It's basically three times the same clip. It's just in different position and in different sizes. Here it's very small and in the very back, and then here it's a little bit closer and a little bit bigger. Even bigger, it seems like it comes closer every time it rolls across the canvas. Then you hear this sound, I just found this creaking noise really fun, I don't know, a rusty wheel or something. That's why I just added this sound. Let's play it again. Here, I filmed my coffee pot next to my workstation. Let me just play. Got it. So this is a little story. I just wanted to tell. My coffee cup is complaining because I keep forgetting, drinking it before it gets cold. You maybe know the situation. I gave my coffee cup a little face in Flipbook mode, of course. And I had the pupils move around. I added a little bit of sound and writing. And here we have a, something is happening. So those little lines appear to the outside, then the cup is being picked up. This was a little bit difficult because I had to move the eyes frame by frame that they stay on the cup. Now nothing is here. Here the cup and the face are coming back. So here we are back. And then, yeah, she keeps forgetting that's what she does with her coffee. So one last example, and you'll probably find that I really like to animate unanimate objects like this one here. So here, I've just basically filmed my finger going up and down and just turned it into a little character. So what I did here is also super simple. I just gave it to arms. And then frame by frame, I just added the position to the finger. I just drew on top and on top and on top. And I went on frame by frame and drew wherever it should have been. And I also found, like a little kids laughter sound. So I just added that as well. So let's look at it once more. I hope you like my examples. There's just so much you can do with animation over videos, and it's gotten so intuitive now with all these changes for Procreate Dreams, too. So I'm really looking forward to see what you guys come up with. And then let's move on to the last video where we'll wrap up the class. I will see you there. 13. Wrap Up: Congratulations. You made it to the end of this class. By now, you know the basics of Procreate Dreams and the different ways you can add motion to your work using simple frame-by-frame animation, keyframing, perform mode and transitions. You're now well prepared to create eye catching short form videos that help your content stand out. Now it's time for you to upload your project to the project gallery so we all can admire your work. And if you share your art online, make sure to tag me that I can find it.
