In this video I said that Groups are invisible in your animation; that is not the case. When you use a group in an animation you will see every layer inside that group in one animation frame.

Thank you! This is the clearest, most informative tutorial I could find on the animation tools in Procreate. You’re a star for taking the trouble to make it.

7:24 foreground blending. I like this tip about background layers that can be static.

Version 5 I never learned. Excellent tips and warns about order of layers, establishing foreground and background, and midground space.

Visual Timmy you have deciphered what I could not. Thank you so much I can actually animate without wanting to tear my brain out of my head to shake it now

I love the simplicity of this and can’t wait to give a go!!

Just watched again because I remember seeing a great tip when making backgrounds. I had no idea you could use the selection tool to make background mountains like that.
