Keep it simple, stay organized, and have fun!
As I discussed in the video, keeping things simple when working with animation in Procreate goes a long way. Here are a few of the most important beginner-friendly tips.
- Start by organizing your layers clearly so each moving element has its own frame or group, which makes adjustments much easier later.
- Small, subtle movements often look better than big jumps, so aim for gentle shifts that feel natural and fluid.
- Pay attention to your frames per second and playback speed, since slowing things down slightly can make animations feel smoother and more intentional.
- Don’t forget to preview often. Watching your animation playback as you go helps you catch timing issues early and keeps the process fun instead of frustrating.
Happy Animating!
