Very simple and straight forward. Thank you! You should create your own procreate dreams course, that will be awesome!
Thanks for watching! I'm considering creating a course. I just need to find the time.
This was extremely useful not just for Procreate Dreams but also for illustrators new to animating and may have heard of rigging but aren't too familiar with it yet. This is the perfect synergy of app and technique breakdown! I really, really appreciate the way you explained it! Thank you!
Thanks for the great comment! I appreciate it! I'm glad it was helpful!
You sir have earned yourself a sub. Video is a good length that’s filled with so much clear info. I already can visualize all that you are telling me as you demonstrate the hierarchy of the layers. Honestly you shown us more than some creators has done so far. I’m looking forward to view more of your videos.
Thanks for the great comment! I appreciate it, and I'm glad the video was helpful!
This is very helpful, seeing how to adjust the anchor for the group. Grouping tracks! That's a good tip.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Really am getting a lot of knowledge from your videos. Many thanks for creating them, much appreciated.
Thanks for the great comment! I'm glad they are helpful. Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot. I could not find how to do.❤
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for making this video I was looking for something. Like this and also I love your vids .
I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Thanx David! A very useful lesson, you made my day)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
David this is great ty😊❤🎉
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
This helped a ton! Thank you :)
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
David, you are brilliant! This is so awesome and makes the movement look so much smoother. I had to giggle when you said you were just doing a quick draw. Your fast sketch of the arm and hand looks better than the hand I spend time trying to draw. Anyway, thank you sooooo…. Much! ❤
Thanks for the great comment and for watching! Hopefully, Procreate Dreams will add shape tools to the program. When that happens, creating simple rigs like this will be much easier because you will be able to line up the circles around the joints to create rotations much smoother than this one. Concerning the "quick" drawing, I did cut out some of the drawing mistakes to shorten the video, so it probably wasn't as quick as it seemed. :)
@@davidpikedesigns without drawing in Procreate I can’t draw a circle. It’s so frustrating . They spoiled us with some of the tools and features in Procreate. Fingers crossed, we’ll see some of those in Procreate Dreams. It will make Procreate Dreams so much more user friendly. Especially for those of us who are new to digital art.
I might start exploring drawing in Procreate and dragging/dropping artwork into Dreams. I've read it works well, but I haven't tried it yet.
@@davidpikedesigns it’s works really well. For me, it’s the only way I can draw anything without squiggling lines….lol
🙏That works! Thanks David, excellent channel. ✊🍷🎩🎩🎩
Thanks for the great compliment, and thanks for watching!
Well damn, I was really contemplating buying this app, as a procreate user. But now I think I will. Tysm!
Glad I could help! Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching! :)
Thats very helpfull. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I’m a toonboom rigger and animator, yet watching here on how to rig and animate in procreate dreams . I’m so intrigued 😅,,
I've rigged in Toon Boom. Procreate Dreams isn't much of a competitor for Toon Boom at the moment. :)
Thanks for watching!
Thanks!
Thank you for your support! I really appreciate it!
This tutorial is one of the easiest to understand. I have gone through several tutorials where artists lost themselves in intricate details and lost their grip on the tool. Hope you have more tutorials, is it me or Dreams is really more complicated?
Glad it was helpful! Concerning Dreams being complicated, it is hard of me to say. I'm used to a mouse and keyboard workflow (Blender, Toon Boom Harmony, etc.). Working on an iPad for me is complicated to start with because it feels so different from my normal process. Also, I haven't extensively tried other animation programs on the iPad (Callipeg, ToonSquid, etc.), so I don't know if those are easier than Dreams. Hopefully, I'll be able to try those other options in the future. Thanks for watching!
Good tutorial
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Honestly this is going to be great for storyboarding
It is turning into a great program. I can't wait to see what they add in the future (selection tools, hopefully). Thanks for watching!
awesome
Thanks for watching!
Amazing video! Clarifies a lot I needed help with. If possible can you do a video for eyes and eyelids for blinking? I’m so struggling with that one I think that’s the last jump
Glad it was helpful! Great suggestion. I'll try to make the eye blink video soon. I can think of three different ways to create one in Procreate Dreams. Thanks for watching!
@@davidpikedesigns you’re truly the best!!!! Absolutely love how you explain things I wanna do a small animation short it’s the eyes that get me lol
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the videos!
How are you reading my mind, I was just thinking a bout this!
Practice. Lots and lots of practice. :)
hi david, very informative, have you tried o make a walk cycle using this way? i am trying but is getting me complicated!
I have tried, but I'm not certain it is ready for a process that complex, especially if you've used Moho or Harmony in the past. It is possible, but I think it is a bit limited without additional functionality, such as deformers. I think it will improve, but I would probably stick to simple rigs at this point. Thanks for watching!
🖤
Thanks for watching!
great video! big help for me who just started in procreate dreams. If i may ask do you have some problems when using the undo button more than 3 times? it will erase a big portion of what i draw.. sometime all of my drawing.
Glad it was helpful! Concerning the undo issues, yes, I've had problems, and I've read in Facebook groups about other people having similar issues. Hopefully, it is something they can correct in the future. Thanks for watching!
In the latest version of Procreate Dreams (1.0.9), they have included some changes to the undo/redo functionality:
• In Movie Settings -> Preferences you can now choose to have permanent Undo and Redo buttons on your Stage.
• You can also disable undo and redo tap and hold gestures.
• The default timing for Rapid Undo has been slowed down, but you can also adjust this in Movie Settings -> Preferences.
thanks for the heads up. I will look into it. Hopefully this will solve the issues. May your channel grow more 🙏
Hope it help!
better to learn frame by frame
procreate dreams was made for frame by fame animation
the only tool missing is the lasso tool
Yes, I think Procreate Dreams is currently better for frame by frame, but if you need to automate very simple movements, it is possible in Dreams. For complete rigging, other programs are better suited for it. Thanks for watching!
can procrete dream do bones?
Unfortunately, not at the moment. I don't know about iPad options for bones, but for animation in general, you can use Moho, Toon Boom Harmony, or Blender Grease Pencil. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
How do you resize the bounding box so that the subject (arm) is nicely bound not minuscule in procreate dreams . My box is off the screen . Help!
Thanks for watching! If your bounding box is much larger than the drawing, you probably have a stray mark somewhere on the screen. The bounding box will extend out to include any strokes. Hope that helps!
The bounding box cannot be resized once the first bounding box has been formed for a group. It is intrinsically linked to the group .
But thanks for your help. Your video is very helpful where there was no other .
I only discovered this today
Thanks for the update! I wasn't aware of that.
Seems like more work instead of straight forward animation but I understand that it keeps the dimensions and everything intact
Yes, it can be more work. Having also used Toon Boom Harmony to create rigs, sometimes it is just faster to draw the poses than rig a puppet. My animations do look much cleaner when rigged because my line drawings aren't very smooth. Thanks for watching!
@@davidpikedesigns it’s still very dope. Wish harmony was free hahah
It is expensive! I'm considering playing around with Moho, but I haven't had time to look into it at the moment.
The tracks are hard to see with your black background format
I tried changing it, but I didn't see an option in Dreams to adjust the interface. I'll keep working on it.
When Savage interactive fixes the track backdrop colors or contrast, it will be one less headache. It's often mentioned on the Forum for Procreate Dreams.
Hopefully soon. I do think it will make videos easier to see.
