Hi! I’m Kelley Bren Burke! I’m a creative entrepreneur living in Minneapolis, MN.

This is my best friend, Murphy. He’s a 7 year old bulldog, and I love to put him in my animated GIFs.

In this class, you’ll learn how to create animations just like that one, starring your favorite pet. I’ll be talking about dogs and cats in this class, but you can GIF any creature you have a photograph of - like a fish, a guinea pig, a bird. Or even a human.

We’ll create 3 different gifs together. To see all of them, please visit the Class Project tab for this class.

We’ll use your own photos and backgrounds from free photo websites like Unsplash and Pixabay.

After this class, you’ll be able to apply what you’ve learned to a number of different scenarios. Your friends will love receiving texts with animations starring their pets - perfect for celebrating birthdays or just for fun.

These animations are awesome for sharing on Instagram and Facebook, as well.

I’ll also show you how to upload your GIFs to GIPHY and apply for a brand or artist channel on GIPHY.

For this class, you’ll need an iPad, the procreate app, and a stylus. I’ll be using the apple pencil.

You don't need to be an artist or an illustrator to take this class.

This is an intermediate Procreate class. I’ll be explaining each step as I go along, but some knowledge of Procreate is helpful. My first class is about creating Birthday GIFs. It’s called Easy Animation with Procreate 5. That class is aimed at beginners in Procreate animation, so feel free to check that out.

I really want to see your pets! Share your pet gifs in the class project gallery, or on Instagram. Follow me and tag me on Instagram (show slide). Also, please follow me on Skillshare! I'm working on my third class as we speak :)
