Procreate Animation Tutorial for Beginners

Hi everyone and welcome back,
You've been asking again and again for a step by step Procreate 5 animation tutorial, so here it is! 😁 The technique is very simple and easy to follow and of course you can apply it to wherever you want to animate in Procreate 5.
So, if you want to recreate the texture brush that I used in the video, all you have to do is open the Brush Library (keep in mind this will only work in Procreate 5 and maybe in Procreate Pocket), click the + in the right corner (to create new Procreate 5 brush) and then follow these settings: Stroke path 22%, Taper - push the Tip animation on, Shape - select the Round Soft Shape Source from the Procreate 5 Source Library, Grain - Grain Source (Import -Procreate 5 Source Library - choose anything you like, I used Recycled Paper) with Blend Mode Multiply, Rendering Intense Blending and then you can leave the other settings like that or play around to customize even more. And that's it, congrats, you just created your first Procreate 5 brush!
Or you can get my complete brush set from here: gumroad.com/illustrateria
These are the 15 Procreate brushes that I swear by and use all the time!
The other one I use in this video is the Procreate 5 Studio Pen, you know how much I love this one!
Your feedback is always so important to me so please leave a comment down bellow to let me know what you think about this tutorial and what else you would like to see here. And please subscribe to my channel if you want to see more videos like this one.
Thank you so much! A huge hug for every single on of you! 🤗

Also congrats on over 1k!!

[@illustrateria]

No I didn't use any layer properties. It's a beginner tutorial so I tried to keep things uncomplicated 😉😄

[@aylenistaylor904]

illustrateria i loved you video. And u got a new subscriber 💗

[@na-dee-yah4075]

I wish this tutorial was slower. Im new to procreate.

[@illustrateria]

@@na-dee-yah4075 Hello! I always recommend to watch the video without drawing anything ...make a plan then go side by side with what I do. I know it can be a little bit harder if you are new to Procreate but I'm sure you will catch up fast! 😊👍 Thanks for feedback!

[@JueVampII]

Its took me 3 hours to draw a lemon just like you did.. thank you so much for your sharing.. i will learn it well.

[@illustrateria]

Happy to hear that ☺ you will be able to finish even faster with some practice 😉

[@nicholashung7871]

You can increase the smoothness of the pen to make it easier to draw with bare finger and pen

Don't forget to set KZbin playback speed really slow.

[@illustrateria]

We all have to start somewhere. Keep practicing and you'll master Procreate animations in no time! Hug! 😊

[@sadieadler3065]

I did a whale spurting water... and didn’t animate it properly so you did better than I did xD

[@urmom-do5cz]

Soso Digital Art your art is amazing!!

[@withana.3040]

Oi

[@dunnykz]

animating a stick figure walking is actually much more complex than the animation seen here

[@SoulSucker0909]

And just like that, I’m interested in animation.

[@illustrateria]

Happy to hear! Have a look on my other videos too ... there are plenty of animations I did. Thanks!

[@Tremmor500]

Yes please more like this. I’d love to really breakdown the techniques and features in procreate used to do things like this (copying shapes into a new layer, clipping masks, etc)

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much, so happy you liked it. There are more tutorial coming real soon 😉😄

Thank you so much! Happy to have a new subscriber! 🤗🤗🤗

[@junesigler628]

Great tutorial! Just the right amount of instruction to not make the video too long but still give us clear direction.

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much, your comment made my evening 🤗 I'm still trying to find the best format here (as you said, not to long yet friendly and useful). So your feedback is such a huge help 🤗

[@saritanakra]

Thank you so much! This is my first learning experience in procreate animation and it went great and it's great to see the results, the video was really helpful! :)

[@breearnemanley]

Mare this takes procreate to a whole new level, you make it look so easy! I’ve only just started using procreate and really wanted to learn this about animation

[@cjhardingart8877]

I love this. Looks so easy. Going to try it for sure.

[@patriciacoveney1]

So beautifully clear and concise. Not rushed and calmly presented with full 2D presentation not just animated lines like many other tutorials on the same subject. Thank you and good luck with the channel.

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much! I have a new tutorial coming right away 😉😄

[@Wonderingabouttwd]

Thank you for this honestly so helpful i have been watching alot of tutorial's for drawing and animation for procreate bcz once i get my equipment on christimas i will be needing it alot mostly because im making a anime for my channel and stuff. so ty.

Your drawing is amazing, those shades look so nice 😁 Thx for the tutorial

[@backdo123]

The atmosphere of the painting is so good. It's different from my painting style, but... I need to paint a little today. I'm looking forward to the next picture too :)

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@painter225]

I love this! Thanks for explaining your steps so well and all in under 6 minutes! (Well I know it took longer to actually do this!) Great video!

[@illustrateria]

Yeah, it took about 40 minutes, you wouldn't believe how much time you spend selecting a layer or choosing things from the menu 😊 I cut most of those to make sure you gurs don't fall asleep 😄

[@louiserackstraw1]

Love it, really enjoyed this :) xx

[@IzzyIshASuperstar]

Amazing! Thank you so much for this. I can’t wait for more videos from you 💕

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much for your support. There are definitely more videos like this one coming ☺

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Wow! I learned a lot very quickly about Precreate while following this tutorial. I had a little trouble understanding how to do shading on elements later in the tutorial WITHOUT making a clipping mask as you did earlier in the tutorial. It seems that for some reason you stopped using that and just added shading directly to the layer… but I don’t see how you avoided it bleeding outside the object. Anyway, great tutorial overall! Thanks. :)

[@zaidortsac]

read the comment before I was finished with the video and I thought you were not being realistic but once I was done I must say that you are very accurate!

[@soniccookie655]

You lock opacity!

[@paperkaite2679]

Convert the layer to alpha mode

[@ErikaLopez-sw3mc]

Thank You for this! I followed this tutorial and went pretty well ✌️😎

[@illustrateria]

So happy to hear that! It's all about practice, I promise the process will get so much easier with every animation you do 😘

I loved it! I just bought an iPad mainly because I wanted to learn and use procreate, this is a great video! I would love to see more tutorials! I’ll give the lemon animation a try 🙌🏼

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much! Maybe you can take a look on the more recent tutorial on the channel, I think those are better explained and a little easier to follow. I've also learned a lot since doing the lemon tutorial 😊😊

[@paulita777]

illustrateria oh yes for sure will do ☺️

Thanks for this! I did the same and it took me almost 4 hours. I love it!!

Thank you ☺

I followed the tutorial and since I’m a beginner with realistic drawings this took me 2 hours and I’m proud of the results :)

[@illustrateria]

Happy to hear! Practice is everything! Keep drawing! ;)

[@HeliNaik]

This is amazing! I love it.

[@pokemoan69]

Amazing!! I have just started. My only constructive criticism would be to break down the steps a bit more, sometimes you’ve made jumps and i don’t know what you’ve done! I hope I can get mine to look similar to yours :) x

[@priestshibe]

Hi there!! Thanks for the tutorial! I was just wondering what kind of pens I can use that work effectively but are not expensive...

[@illustrateria]

Hi! The iPad 3rd generation (the one I use) has an active pen. I'm using 2nd generation of the pen. You can work also with any pen (not necessarily active like mine ) but won't be a smooth process like you see in my videos. I have also an older iPad and I'm using it with a regular pen(not active) and I can do things. Thanks!

[@HerrscherSirin]

thank you for sharing this. this is my second time trying to animate and im happy to see it turned out really well :)

[@megchen1565]

Very useful! Thank you so so much!💖💖💖

[@almxndbxbatea4489]

I've been interested in animation I always tried to do it but I started to bring myself down by saying I can't draw and that I should give up and I always did give up but now I know I just need the right motivation and supporting myself though I am no van gough lol

[@illustrateria]

You just have to start and you'll do amazing works! Maybe try following this tutorial first, it's so much easier than the lemon one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXyxkpier7appLM 😊

[@joshuafernau4026]

Thank you for this video. I didn’t know you could select the drawing layer as your background or foreground layer and then animate over it. Going to save me so much hassle! It’s the simple things in life. 😁🥳

[@ARTYCOATY]

You are full of talent. I respect you. 😊💕

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much for such kind words! Hug!

[@ericguidry285]

You are highly talented, which you would slow your videos down about 50% to make more enjoyable watching.

[@illustrateria]

Thank you so much! Will do my best to slow down :)

[@clare2439]

im gonna try this. thanks for the informative video! :)

[@Street.Hermit]

Awesome work,. Thanks for posting

[@yawenxiao2931]

Don't forget to group all the layers before turning on the animation, guys.

[@illustrateria]

Yup, good point 😊

[@illustrateria]

You have to go to the layers menu, select all the layers that you want to group (swipe a little bit to the right starting with the 2nd layer), then hit Group.

I hope the beginners reference includes people who have only ever doodled in their lives (like me)

[@3mbr4cethygr4ce4]

Thank you fo this tutorial! Unfortunately I struggle with understanding on which layer you are working on, and why. I slowed down the video but couldn't find the explanations or exact steps when another layer was created or when to jump between layers or rearrange them. So it's quite hard following through step by step. i still learned new things from this video! Edit: I actually spent hours on recreating this tutorial, inclusively updating my Ipad so I can update my Procreate App to the newest version, which allows animation! I'm currently in the last steps, still need to colour and shade the water drops. I'm so excited! This will be my first animation and I always dreamt of actually animating myself *-* I always thought I'd need expensive programs for it that I could never afford, or learn using programs that seem quite mathematical and complicated, but I already have Procreate and can now animate with a program I invested in years ago.. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing kowledge
