@@ZeBirdBrain yeah my teach animated for the Simpsons original show n brought up your videos.

[@lezzdenden]

First time seeing this channel. The video is short, digestible, and fun. I'll have a lot learned real soon. Thanks a bunch!

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Thanks for the sub! C:

[@sevdrakegavial]

This was genuinely such a good, clear, and easy to follow vid. I've been using Storyboard Pro for a bit now and I still had no idea about half of these features XD Really glad I found your channel, thanks a lot

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Glad it helped!

Fancy meeting you here Nemao.

This was the single best video I personally found that explains how I can use my background for a whole scene and how to edit them all without needing to duplicate them for every panel, I started storyboarding in Photoshop since I knew how to operate on it. I decided to learn to storyboard on Storyboard Pro, now that I feel more comfortable to move towards bigger projects and this video was very helpful!

[@aryanbarure1479]

Heyyy, love the way you teachh... My uni teachers were skimming through storyboard pro and gave us a hugeee assginment but didnt even care tot explain the entire softwaree... THANKSS for the helpp

Good tutorial ZeBird. I do mostly art and like to take storyboarding on iPad but above all, I think this is good for those that will do it on PC with a drawing tablet. Keep up the great content, you yourself earned respect and a new sub

[@wowathing.618]

YOU ARE A SAINT!!!!

[@desmondmasikhwa1700]

Where have you been my whole life 😅. You're really easy to follow and understand. You've just earned a subscriber and fan. Amazing, Keep up the great work. 🙌🏼

[@ZeBirdBrain]

thankyou so much !! omg !

[@aspiring.creative.person6092]

I want to do storyboarding fulltime and I've had a great time on ProCreate, but this program is industry standard (for a good reason, probably!) and I'm outgrowing what ProCreate allows storyboarding-wise. It's time I learned this program! Thanks a lot for this helpful video!

[@audiidrawii]

aaa thank you so much for this! You explained it in a way that makes all of the functions less intimidating TvT

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Thank you so fricking mucho

[@ZeBirdBrain]

GLAD u found it!

[@kookie3000]

Thank you for this tutorial and your voice is really cute.

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Thank you! 😊

[@arkaix]

I have a problem, the program won't let me draw. When I trace a line it immediately disappears and the program doesn't even register it as an action. I can only draw if I import an image and draw over it, for some reason, so the program does recognize my pen imput but it won't let me draw on an empty panel/layer. Help???

[@louie297]

EXACT same problem here. Lemme know if you find a solution

[@kingtan6254]

Did you fix that ?

[@kingtan6254]

​@@louie297did you fix it 😢😢

[@arkaix]

​@@kingtan6254 nah. But I found out that if I import a random image into the layer, it starts magically working. Every new layer I make I just import an image or copy/paste a random line I previously drew, and the layer suddenly works like normal. I hope this comment finds you because holy shiet it took me so long to figure it out.

[@MojoTheClown]

Handy tips! Thank you.

[@karabii]

I wish i found this during school thank you so much for this ;-;

[@ZeBirdBrain]

I also wished I had this in school! haahahahah Don't forget you can join the fun on discord! discord.gg/CwVKq5Q

Happy to help!

[@SK1966DM]

Crikey. You talk so fast 🏎️ 💨

[@ZeBirdBrain]

My videos are sped up by 20% If it is too fast for you, slow it down in the video setting in the bottom right of the screen... 0.75 will give you the actual speed of my voice.

[@SK1966DM]

@@ZeBirdBrain aaah. Now I understand. Thanks for the explanation 👍🏼 I’ll still watched a load of them last night, but had to concentrate to ensure that I caught every word 😂

[@zaza_ink]

Fantastic video! It was so easy to follow along! Thank you! Strange inquiry but the smart add panel isn't duplicating the layer I'm selecting for some reason? Any advice on something to try? I can't find any forums talking about why it wouldn't be working :\

[@ZeBirdBrain]

You're welcome! For your question, you shoud reach to [e-mail]

[@williamsthegreat118]

Awesome. .I love it

[@ZeBirdBrain]

[@sireoh]

If u double click on the coloured rectangle above the hues u get to use the hue rgb square similar to photoshop.

[@ZeBirdBrain]

true

[@haosienani7882]

Is it worth to buy the perpetual one ?

[@Eldr1tchGl1tch]

I got story board to try and use it for extreme angles in my animation and all that, but my brush tool isn't working, I can't draw on my panels unless I import something from library and draw on the panel it makes because drawing directly on a new panel won't activate it for some reason.

[@maurosimas5845]

I have the same problem.

[@ZeBirdBrain]

[@arkaix]

I'm having your exact problem right now, can you tell me how did you fix it?

[@arkaix]

The little eyes near every layer, when you make one they have white pupils, and when you make the first stroke on them they change to black pupyls. Mine doesn't do that, it stays white and the brush strokes disappear.

[@alix2032]

thank you SO SOOOO much for this!! it helped me a lot!

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Glad it did !

[@raghuchandra]

I installed SB Pro, but whatever I draw or write on any layer disappears instantly... Any idea what's wrong ? Any suggestions ?

[@toonbax3]

I'm having the same issue :(

[@ZeBirdBrain]

you need to use the brush tool, not the eraser tool!

[@raghuchandra]

@@ZeBirdBrain I was using Paint Brush only, Later I changed the Crack and it is working fine now

[@federicabellofiore1982]

[@SajanSingh-mj8eh]

Hey, need help ! I cant access rectangle tool in harmony. People say click and hold on line tool and more options will pop up. But nothing is happening ! can you help ? :>)

[@ZeBirdBrain]

you're supposed to get it by clicking ont he line tool (either double click, or click long or twce i forgot) and you'll get a dropdown, like the selct tool, conrol editor and ect!)

[@SajanSingh-mj8eh]

@@ZeBirdBrain No its not happening, there is no option like this now in Harmony 20. It is not there in any of the tools like dropdown, select tool etc.

[@SajanSingh-mj8eh]

@@ZeBirdBrain thanks for getting back ! :>)

[@SajanSingh-mj8eh]

Hey, problem solved ! There is a setting in the preferences tab for flat tools toolbar, that was the issue, it should be off. 😀

This program is way too expensive. Is there a free alternative?

[@ZeBirdBrain]

Pen and paper? Post it notes and sharpies? Its not free... but cheaper! Thats what I started with...
