THIS TUTORIAL IS AMAZING TYSM! I downloaded the app and was immediately lost and felt like the features were way too beyond my grasp but I never like giving uo and this just made everything 1000x clearer. You’re a legend thank you 🙏💗

I had $5 in the bank and still bought Procreate Dreams. I’m ok with being negative in the bank until I get paid a few days from now. This is so amazing. We are about to see a burst of 2d animation and video effects hit channels worldwide.

[Samakerartmaker]

This is sooo gooood! Lisa you are making this overwhelming content feel very do-able and digestible. Thank you for creating this video. Just downloaded Procreate Dreams and I am looking forward to your course on it. Thank you, thank you!

[Lostin]

Is anybody else having an absolutely terrible time using this app? Nonstop crashes, can’t export at the end of a project etc. etc.

[emyp.]

Great video! Very structured and clear! gonna get it one of these days probably! Could you do a video explaining voiceovers in Dreams? Ive seen them advertising that you can do it in the app :)

[AngeloVilar]

As a long time user of adobe flash, the analogy of groups being envelopes is masterful and gets the idea across very clearly. Thank you!

[sophievanderbilt]

I can’t thank you enough for this tutorial! So many “beginner “ tutorials start in the MIDDLE of their animation, with little to no explanations of how to actually use the program. Seriously, thank you so so much

I used to work in an animation studio 8yrs ago and I changed my career into tattooing, after procreate release animation software (Procreate dreams) I didn’t think twice to purchase it. And I have to get back to the bottom to start learning the basic tools again, your workshop is very easy to understand. This is really a big plus. Thank you so much! ❤

I don’t understand why the draw function is so drastically hamstrung. Why can’t you draw and hold to make shapes? You can’t adjust any of the brush settings. There’s no way the anime style animation that is packaged with the program was made with this app. It’s incredibly misleading to put it out there like that. You need procreate already if you want to do anything beyond animating crude simple shapes

I have been waiting for this video all night long! 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉

[PamTakeTwo]

I'm glad - well not actually glad, but relieved I guess that I am not the only one that cannot download video and am stuck on 0%. I have cleared up my memory, I found the settings to lower the quality of video, I'm updating my OS and we'll see after I've done everything "I" can do what happens. Betting the Procreate team is not getting any sleep right now!

[MojoMan]

Nobody! and I mean NOBODY!! does as fine a job of teaching the features of “Dreams” as well as you do!🥰

[El_Taqureo]

Since there is no brush settings, how do you draw more smoothly without uneven lines?

[INFPanimation]

Hi! Is there a way to adjust the Apple Pencil settings? I have to press harder than in Procreate and it’s so unnatural to me. 😅

[therealsechs]

bob ross didnt make us pay for courses.

[LizBarber]

Lots of info to grasp. Looking forward to learning more. Thanks so much!

[KnightBott]

Perfect perfect explanation. Envelope…thank you. :) Excellent beginner video. I got mine prepaid. Came in at 11:00 PM (Tampa, Florida). I stayed up lol 😂🎉❤ 33:47

BTW, I just wanted you to know that I found you quite by accident looking up making brushes in Procreate. Somehow you came to my attention about pixel brushes. I was intrigued. I went to your Gumroad and downloaded your pixel art brushes. I then explored all of your content, came back to your YouTube and immediately subscribed. You are a wonderful teacher and fun to watch. I have learned many things from you about illustration and animation. Thank you for sharing with all of us. I am 52. If I only had Procreate as a kid lol. But you make it very easy to understand everything. ❤

FILL DURATION! I've been stuck for hours trying to follow this course. Whenever i drew a smiley face it didnt fill the timeline. Just one frame in the beginning.
Making the comment for any other fools stuck like i was.

[mayaleszczynska]

If only this app was available like 6 months ago when I was finishing my animation degree 😢

[megamcgee]

I can’t figure out quick shapes, am I missing something?
