Thank you thank you for this video!! I prefer doing rough animation in a different program but am hoping to use procreate to clean in up. This technique may make that plausible.
I knew it was possible but my brain could peace it together on how to do it! Glad somone already has it figured out! Thank you! Tracing already helped me learn so much with animation!
I am animating my friend dancing. So I think I should seperate the pics into parts. Then put together in after effects! Thank you!! This helped alot bc I dont want to deal with photoshop or animate.
...wow, how handy is that! I had no idea. AND Moho is my animation program, too! You are a beautiful man, Stayf. Thanks and thanks! Now to your next video...
For anyone not being able to add it because it's too big... Trimming the video to about 6 to 7 seconds usually works... The reason is about the size of the file itself. Try to find a compressor on the app store, or on a website that will compress the video for you. Ezgif.com and going to Gif Optomizer is a lifesaver in that aspect, trust me.
For me you jumped over the most important bits-when you created the new frames/layers: Did you create one at a time? And where did you put them? At the top of the stack? Between the images? Does it even matter? And I guess you turned off each image layer after you traced it...or all at once at the end? Again, does it matter or not? This was all fudged over and so I’m really confused about the work flow.
Hi! I’m a beginner. Not sure if I’ve missed something but just not sure how do you hide the pixels from the imported video? When I hide the layer it also hides the tracing lines I have just made.
I would love to thank u so muchhh u don’t know how much u helped for real God bless uuuu❤ can u plz make a video on how to animate a whole story? Is there a to move body parts of a character without having to draw millions of frames ? And about adding sound effects voice over and visual effect for a movie to be uploaded how to do that plz after animating on procreate, I don’t have procreate dreams and won’t be able to afford it is there any other way?
For making animation with sound and animation you need Procreate Dreams or ToonSquid. In ToonSquid you can make animations with animating the parts of a character without drawing each frame. You can do the same in Procreate Dreams.
You see how one of the videos was kinda faded out? That keeps happening to me and it won’t let me import the video! I lowered the video to three seconds to test it but it still won’t work! What am I doing wrong? I adjusted the size too!
Not at this moment. I hope Procreate will incorporate that in the next version. If you want a picture as a background you have to duplicate it for every animated frame and merge it with that animated layer.
Thanks for the tutorial! The first time I did this, it imported at 26 fps, and it was really good, but the second time I did this, it imported at the maximum fps, and only included a split second. I do not know how to change the frame rate without slowing the animation down, or deleting the frames in between, which gives me the same amount to footage anyway. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm just wondering if I'm missing something, or if there's a reason why some videos have a higher frame rate than others? Sorry if I sound somewhat demanding this is really good advice otherwise
It's sad that they still haven't done anything about this :( It's not remotely viable to have this kind of workflow for rotoscoping. Reference videos taking up one layer would be a gamechanger.
An HD video (1920 pixels x 1080pixels) can handle 250 frames. That is 10 secondes if your video runs at 25 fps. If you have an HD video that runs at 60 fps (300 layers), you can not import it. A 4K video (3840 pixels x 2160 pixels) can only handle 60 layers. You need to somehow reduce the pixels or seconds of your video to import it into Procreate.
It could because of the resolution, as the more pixels an image has on Procreate, the less layers it can have (the maximum being 400). Unless it decreases the resolution based on the amount of frames.
Great video! Just a question, do you know how to use onion skin on frames when you have imported a video? (Like you did in the video) It doesn’t seem to allow the same process of using onion skins as it does when you draw frames without having imported video? 🤔 I want to rotoscope an effect that gets larger as it leaves but would love the ability to onion skin the previous frame in order to get it more exact! 😀
Try to open your photos app and Procreate i a splitscreen. Make a Procreate Canvas at 1920 pixels x 1080 pixels and drag the video on to Procreate from your Photos app.
I would but You can’t do that, procreate doesn’t let you upload videos that big. Even 1 MB is too big. I can’t find anything to download and animate smaller than that.
@@StayfDraws it still does not let me, i have procreate 4.3.9 .it seems though procreate 5 has it as a default option but it is not availiable yet i think
If I have that many layers I will delete every other layer, so you have 125 layers to work with. Then set the fpds to 12. In 2D animation most of the keyframes are held 2 frames. That is called to animate on two's.
Ok for anyone wondering if it didn’t let you import don’t go to a canvas and THEN push import as soon as you get to the Home Screen, push import, select your video and then it works! Anyway nice video even though I’m a year late😂
