Your class project will be to create a looping animation in Procreate and export it in Premier Rush! The final deliverable will be a 5-second (or less), looping animation in Mp4 format. You will be creating an illustration with one or three elements in your composition. We will start planning how to transform one element into another abstract shape or into a concrete element.

To complete this class, you will need:

Procreate and Adobe Premier Rush installed on your iPad.
1-2 illustrations to animate.
If you don't feel comfortable creating your own illustration but still want to practice frame-by-frame animation, I will provide Procreate files with two animated characters transformed to help you see how this animation is organized.

The steps we will cover in class:

• Brainstorm ideas around the illustration and existing characters

• Find reference videos

• Create a rough animation in Procreate

• Clean up the animation

• Color each frame of our animation

• Add sound in Adobe Premiere Rush

• Export in Adobe Premiere Rush

Class Resources :

You can complete this class along with me by using these files:

The animation for the snail only >> Snail__line_animation.procreate
The jellyfish and the snail in the same Procreate file >> Line_animation_Snail_and_Jellyfish.procreate
A folder with all files I have created especially for this class

It would be ideal for you to start animating the rest of the elements and adding color to this animation. Lastly, I will include a few sounds that I have created to be added and mixed in Premiere Rush. We will discuss that as well.

When you feel satisfied with your animation, I would love to see your work in MP4 format.

You can post any of the following for feedback:

Sketches
Ideas for animating your chosen illustration or existing characters in this class
Rough animations on how to improve
Colored animation
Sound animation

I am happy to answer any questions you may have about personal illustrations and ideas. I look forward to seeing your projects!!
