How To animate on Procreate – Get Started Today

Are you a proud parent who is eager to know how to animate on Procreate? Learning how to create animations on your computer is easier than ever before with the help of new online tutorials and software programs that let you use the latest technology on your computer. Animation can be fun and entertaining when done right. There are several methods that can be used to learn how to animate on Procreate. Let’s look at three quick and easy methods you can try.

Open the GIF file on your Procreate 5 graphic program. Open the GIF file on your Procreate 5 software. Using the arrow keys to drag the animated image from the desktop onto your pre-existing canvas. If you want to have more than just one frame per image, you can also create an add on option for that by pressing the + sign on the upper left corner of your screen. This will add a frame here as well as a title to your animated gif.

Open the Video tab in your Procreate page. Select the “gifs” icon from the main menu that displays. Open the “Animated Greets” option in the left pane of the main page. If you have already created some cute animations on your computer using another method, simply choose one from the options on the right pane of the animated GIF selection panel. If you’d like to do some more complex animations, you’ll need to select the other option from the animated GIF selection panel.

Now click any one of the four smooth lines on the right pane of your Procreate screen. Drag any of the layers that are on your layer tree until you are able to see them in your layer list. Notice how each of the four smooth lines has four parts: the starting point, the end point, the middle stage, and the destination point. You will notice that each stage of your animation is a different color than the rest of the animation.

The easiest way how to animate on Procreate is to select one of the four animated GIFs that are in your project and click on it. If you’d rather use the built in motion gallery, simply highlight the image, click on it, then hit the play icon to add it to your timeline. Once you’ve added the image, you can see the animated GIF in your layer palette. Notice that the image isn’t actually moving, but rather the graphic are static. This allows you to add movement or take advantage of the ‘drag and drop’ methods so you can animate your image without having to re-animate the entire document.

If you’d like some additional tips on learning how to animate on Procreate, I highly recommend using the Photoshop tutorials included with the program. These quickstart guides show you exactly how to set up your graphics so that they will work with the program you are currently using. After you have installed the tutorials, you should see a new layer called ‘animation’. Click on this new layer and choose from the options available. To learn how to animate on Procreate, select any of the four main animated GIFs that are in your project. These images will load up in the Animation Palette and begin to play immediately!
