In this class I will show you how to use Procreate Dreams to fully bring your ideas to life through the power of animation.   I’m really excited to share my professional experience with you in this class, to share tips and tricks on how to get an animation project completed, without getting overwhelmed or lost along the way. But most of all, I'm excited to show you that you can do all your animation inside of one powerful app: Procreate Dreams!  This app is breaks new ground by making hugely complex processes very simple, straightforward and even intuitive. It is built entirely with you in mind, and this is the first time that an animation program offers easy access to the entire production process: from initial concept to final render.

In this class i’ve designed a class project that will showcase all of the features of Procreate Dreams, as well as emulate a professional production pipeline.

First you’ll learn all the key features, the interface and the layout. I’ll show you the gestures to navigate around the Stage and Timeline while speeding up your workflow.

From there you’ll learn the three main ways of animating in Procreate Dreams

• with Flip Book where you’ll animate frame by frame and use the onions skin feature
• with keyframes on the timeline, where you can animate groups and effects
• and finally we’ll animate with Performing in Procreate Dreams a feature that literally records any action that you perform on the stage

Along the way you’ll learn to draw and paint, you’ll learn all about key animation principles such as timing and spacing, squash and stretch. And as well as that you’ll learn how to build out an animation project according to a blueprint that you can apply to any project at all, from a short sequence to a fully animated film.
