PROCREATE DREAMS QUICK START GUIDE
Hey guys, I’ve been seeing some people having a few troubles with some features in Procreate Dreams so I’ll try to adress some of the most common problems I’ve seen real quick.
CREATING A NEW PROJECT
Tumblr media
When you first open the app, it should look something like this. Dreams comes with 3 example projects that you can look at and get a feeling of what is possible. You can delete those if you want. To create a new animation, tap the plus icon in the upper right corner.
Tumblr media
I’ve seen a few people confused about the playback speed being too fast. That is probably because you’re frame rate is too high for what you are trying to do. The frame rate can, as far as I know, currently only be changed when creating a new project. For that, select the format you want to use (wide screen is recommended) and tap the three dots at the upper right corner. You’ll get a menu where you can change the frame rate and duration of your animation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For simpler animations and beginners, I recommend 12 frames per second (the frame-by-frame preset) or 15 frames per second (the anime preset). Create your project with your selected preferences by tapping either Draw or Empty. (Draw automatically opens the project with a premade drawing layer, ready to animate)
Tumblr media
When tapping on Draw, you should see something like this. You are currently in drawing mode and ready to animate.
ADDING NEW FRAMES AND FLIPBOOK MODE
Tumblr media
Draw your first frame of animation. You will see that what you have drawn goes on for entire duration of the timeline. To draw the next frame, you have to press the plus button on the frame in the timeline, this will create a new frame.
Tumblr media
For now, this seems to be the way classic frame-by-frame animation works. If you want to focus on just drawing and get the timeline out of the way, drag the whole timeline by that little gray center bar on top of it either up or downwards. This will put the timeline into flip book mode and you can use your whole screen for drawing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You add a new frame in the flip book exactly like you do in the timeline. Tap a frame and then the plus button in the upper right corner of it.
GETTING BACK TO YOUR PROJECT FILES
To leave your current project and open another one, click the symbol that is located right before the project name at the upper right corner of the timeline.
Tumblr media
ADDING BRUSHES!
It is possible to add new brushes in addition to the ones available in the app. In fact, all Procreate brushes and all .brush and .brushset files work in Dreams!
Tumblr media
The fastest and easiest way to import brushes from Procreate to Dreams is by using the iPads splitscreen mode. Put Procreate and Dreams into splitscreen mode so they are side by side. In Procreate, open the brush you want to use in Dreams and drag and drop it onto the canvas in Dreams. There should be a green plus symbol at the brush you are dragging, telling you when you can let go.
Tumblr media
The original brush in Procreate will not be moved or deleted during this process! The new brush should now show up in a folder at the bottom of the folder list.
Tumblr media
In the same drag and drop way, you can also import .brush and .brushset files from your Files app on the iPad. (I recommend creating a dedicated folder for all your custom and downloaded brushes there so you can find them quick!) When adding a .brushset file to Dreams, it will create a new folder at the bottom of the list with all brushes of the brushset inside.
TURNING ON ONION SKIN
The “Onion Skin” mode is a feature in animation software that lets you see a certain amount of frames before and after the frame you are currently working on.
Tumblr media
To turn this on for the current animation you are working on, you have to tap in the timestamp right under the opacity slider on the left of the screen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This brings up a small menu where you can turn on and customize your Onion Skin layers. You can also change the background color here.
GETTING TO THE SETTINGS AND EXPORTING!
To get to the project settings and change your preferences, tap the file name displayed at the upper right of the timeline (in this screenshot “Dream 1”)
Tumblr media
This will open the settings menu where you can check the project info, change the playback mode export your project and more. (I am aware that there is/was a bug that prevented exporting on older devices, this is/will be fixed. A current workaround at the moment would be to screen record your animation.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that’s all for now! These are the things I personally struggled with the first time I tried out the app or what I’ve seen other people struggle with online, so I hope I could help some beginners find some answers to their questions.
These tips are all subject to change. Dreams is currently in its most early stage and will be updated and only made better from now on, just like Procreate was when it first released. If there is a feature missing or clunky to use, there is a good chance this will added/changed in the future.
Lastly, I would like you all to know that if you had issues with learning this or any program at first, that’s okay! Animation software is inherently a little complicated because, who would have thought, animation is complicated. Its important to keep at it and learn! There are many great free tutorials out there that you can binge to become better and better every day! Have fun creating!
