EVERYTHING You Need To Know To Animate in Procreate Dreams

I've actually really enjoyed animating in Dreams (adding in the extra animations on this video was a LOT of fun - it's definitely going to be a part of the new process for sure!) Let me know if there's anything else you want to know about animating in Procreate Dreams and I'll add it to the list :)

Does the onion skin make you cry?

[@kdsketch]

All the time :')

[@barbi111]

😂🤍

[@roysama_gg]

Genius 😂

[@SuperLaikaBros2000]

Actually the onion skin is used for revealing the previous and next frames but that is a good joke right there.🤣

[@carmencosmo]

Honestly yeees it doooes 😢😅

[@Vivy3000]

Oh my gosh this tutorial was a life saver!!! I was ripping my hair out I couldn't figure out why I couldn't have my animation longer than 30 seconds!!! And now I know why and how to fix it!!!! Thank you!!!!!🤩🤩

[@kdsketch]

amazing!! so glad the video helped :D there's a lot of little tricks and features they've added but unless you've watched a few tutorials and read the guide it's tough to start out with! thanks for commenting!

[@mrduckeatsbread]

Yay! You showed me how to use Krita and now you’re showing me how to use dreams! Your tutorials have saved me!!!!

[@kdsketch]

No problem ✨So glad the video helped!! 🙌

[@zechteri]

I like how I bought it and then went back to regular procreate. I'm sure this will help, so Thank you in advance. and Keep Creating.

[@kdsketch]

😂 that is a MOOD! Hope it helps when you get back to it ✨🤞✨

[@dullheadtv]

Amazing tutorial i thought i figured out the app already but this is the best tutorial out rn

[@kdsketch]

wow thank you so much! So glad the video helped :)

[@yomu235]

Hopefully they will include streamline in brushes individualy so it will be easier to draw without jittery lines, so basically we need sometimes. To draw on procreate then transfer to dreams and i rhink that also took time as well

[@soso_roblox901]

THANK U VERY MUCH I'M WORKING AT SHORT ANIMATION FILM AND THIS TRACKS WELL HELP ME KEEP GOING

[@JoshuaVucelich]

This video was amazing and a huge help to me I’m getting into animation and have several videos in the making between me and a few friends working with me and this video helped explained the app very well

[@kdsketch]

Thank you so much I’m so glad the video helped :) good luck with your animation projects!

[@JoshuaVucelich]

@@kdsketch thank you!

[@redvli8746]

Wonderful tutorial 😃yes I also feel at this point you do most drawings in procreate and dreams is just an assembly point

[@kdsketch]

thank you so much! I'm doing a lot of style frames in procreate and making note of the brushes that I'm using so it's easier for cleanup/colour. Definitely handy having them work so closely together!

[@Yassensanimation]

Quick question can you draw with your finger in procreat dreams

[@kdsketch]

I have it turned off painting with finger but you can turn it on in the preferences tab of movie settings :) I go over the movie settings in the video! Hope it helps!

[@playgroundtown]

Can you please do a review of ToonSquid (2D animation for iPad)? Thanks!

[@kdsketch]

Toon squid is on my list!

[@johndeggendorf7826]

Hallelujah! 👍🍷🎩🎩🎩🙏

[@kdsketch]

Glad you enjoyed the video :D

[@Redhackle]

Can you bring up a reference photo to draw from ?

[@kdsketch]

You can import a reference photo to a new track and have it outside the canvas (or on it!) or you can use split screen to show your reference on procreate or the photos app :)

[@Redhackle]

@@kdsketch thanks very much. Kind of you to reply.

[@suraj.403]

Please make a animation using clip studio paint and describe in tutorial ❤❤

[@kdsketch]

Definitely! It’s on my list!

[@SuperLaikaBros2000]

So what are the differences of Procreate Dreams and Procreate?

[@kdsketch]

One was made specifically for animation and the other for drawing (though you can animate in procreate I prefer dreams) :)

[@ahmedhegazymac1438]

What ‘s the point of buying both apps when pro creat dreams can do the drawing and the movement already ??

[@kdsketch]

procreate has many more drawing tools and features so you can set up backgrounds, designs and characters and drag them into dreams and focus on animating there :) Much easier than trying to do it all in dreams, procreate alone is worth it tbh :)

[@onedream8878]

For a beginner in draw do u think it interesting ?

[@kdsketch]

Definitely think it’s easier than some animation apps :) I’m really enjoying it!

[@onedream8878]

@@kdsketch it very good to know but do u think it possible to animate background whit ai image that we can create ? Thanks for your comment it very helpfull 😁

[@kdsketch]

I don't use AI to animate - it's all hand drawn, can't help with that one, sorry!@@onedream8878

[@gemlenz]

i learned how to create folders, but how do you add to a folder?

[@kdsketch]

Expand the group and you can drag new tracks into the group, though it’s sometimes a little buggy it does work

[@gemlenz]

@@kdsketchThat doesn't work. When I bring up the group it only shows that group's content.

[@kdsketch]

So you’ll need to make a new track or add the media you want to the timeline by tapping the plus on the right. From there you can then click and drag the new track/media into the group :)

[@gemlenz]

@@kdsketch I don't think you understand my question. I'm in theater mode looking at my files. From there when I choose select at the right. I can add a "new" folder. There isn't a option to move selection to an existing folder.

[@kdsketch]

OH!! Your last comment made it clearer. Currently you can’t move projects to existing folders from theatre mode or drag and drop them like you can with procreate. If you move files into folders you also can’t move them out. To bring a file back to the main page of the theatre I’ve had to export the dream file and import it again as though it’s a new project. Hoping they bring in the drag and drop system because it’s much more convenient

[@XAVIERCUERVO]

when i undo with 2 fingers more than once the undo goes too far back undoing things i dont want undoing anybody else has this issue ??

[@kdsketch]

So I had this on mine, the 'hold' for undo/redo is VERY quick so if you do a two-finger tap it you have to immediately lift your fingers off the screen so it doesn't activate the longer undo/redo. I've seen a few comments in forums about extending the time before it activates so I'm hoping it'll be in an update/fix soon :)

[@AutumnPawsome]

There should be a way to fix that already! If you go into the project settings, there should be a place called preferences. In there, there is a slider for rapid undo delay, and you can change the number to something more comfortable!

[@kdsketch]

Thank you so much!! Doing that now haha!@@AutumnPawsome

[@XAVIERCUERVO]

@@AutumnPawsome THANKS

[@nkanyisoinnocentkhwane3752]

😢 I think I should get Procreate Dreams: Clip Studios layers make me wanna cry

[@kdsketch]

It’s been a while since I looked at the clip studio animation workflow, definitely feels easier in dreams despite not all the tools being there YET

[@AnimatorWES]

where’s lasso

[@kdsketch]

It’s not in dreams YET, they’re working on adding it and other features in the next update!

[@artmanstudios7037]

I think one should just work in 4k and then scale down if you need to rather than scaling up.

[@kdsketch]

You definitely shouldn’t scale up!! HD is a good scale to work at but on the lower spec iPads it’s not as stable/fast at 4k which is why I’d recommend HD :)

[@artmanstudios7037]

@@kdsketch This was still be applicable since this will work in principle just always work at the highest resolution possible it doesn't necessarily need to be 4K But if the machine or device you have gives you that ability then take!

[@kdsketch]

@artmanstudios7037 definitely agree with you on this! ✨ 🙌

[@Karenwood]

I’m gonna be constantly referring back to this video, thank you for your service 🫡

Good luck soldier 🫡 ✨
