#procreate animation

[capsyst]

This is the scene that I was working on when my iPad died. I said I’d post it when I finished so you’d all get to see why I was so devastated when I lost it, so here you go! (No sound, I haven’t edited it to the rest of the short yet).

I had just finished inking Petra and Jessie. Luckily I had exported it as a video and saved it to my phone before the crash. So while I did have to re-trace all of the ink lines, at least I had a good reference to do it from.

I started working on this scene a little before Christmas, so it’s been about a month that I’ve been working on it (including the week where I had to scramble to get a new iPad and get caught back up again).

It’s been a rough time. This is probably the most technically challenging shot I’ve done so far. Keeping their proportions right, their feet planted on the ground, and their bodies rotating in 3D space was exceptionally difficult. Im happy with how it turned out but I’m frustrated that it probably would’ve been better had I not had to re-do so much of it due to a hardware malfunction.

There’s probably a lot wrong with it, but I honestly can’t focus on it any longer. I’m so far behind now. I really want to wrap up this short. So I just gotta cut my losses and say this is good enough and move on.

I only have a few more shots left, and hopefully they’re not as technical as this one. So here’s hoping I can finish before the end of next month if all goes well.

🤞

Lil’ procreate animations. It’s not easy animating on procreate, since it doesn’t have layers, so I often just do extremely easy shapes.

Just messing with the gleamfolk buddies since they're fun to draw

And here it is! My first fully completed Procreate Dreams animation. I used audio from one of Technoblade’s more famous rants during his Potato War series. I love Technoblade and miss him every day, so I hope that I was able to capture the magic of his energy in my animation.

I animated the roughs and drew the backgrounds in Procreate, but then I imported that into Dreams to do all the cleanup. It runs at 24 fps, but there’s a lot of variations to spice it up in there.

I wanted to really challenge myself so there’s a LOT going on in this short 9 second clip. There’s a camera move with multiple layers to achieve a subtle parallax scroll, there’s two lighting changes with one being a completely animated shadow layer, and there’s a warp effect on the curtains for when it opens and closes.

There’s still a lot that could be cleaned up. Some of the linework is a little more jittery than I would prefer, and the coloring process was awful. Every color was its own separate layer, which was exhausting to do. I really hope i can figure out a faster and easier way to do the coloring process because that took me over a week to complete! Yikes!

Overall I’m extremely proud of my work here. I’ve been working on this 9 second clip since Dreams released and I really wanted to showcase to everyone just how powerful Dreams is. I know a lot of people were complaining about it when it released and I wanted to do something to help reorient people’s expectations. I genuinely cannot believe that I did all of this on my iPad!

If anyone has any questions or would like to see a breakdown of this animation, please feel free to contact me!

And remember… Technoblade never dies!
