Animating on footage is a cool way to differentiate yourself as a video creator or animator. It really allows you to hook an audience and spice things up. My clients love it when I use it. It creates that special element of surprise and you can really explore your creativity even further. It’s another tool in the toolbox you can whip out to make something unique. In this class I will be covering:
- how to decide what kind of footage lends itself to be animated on with different use cases
- the basics of procreate and how to make an animation on footage you shot yourself or you can download my videoclips in the projects tab and follow along (go to the projects tab for this)Â
- the mindset of experimentationÂ
- using a non destructive way of drawing on footage with the use of editing software
You will need either an iPhone or iPad with Procreate installed on it. You don't need editing software but if you want to create digital tracing paper I advice to use Davinci Resolve as it is free. In the the class I will explain it in Premiere and Davinci but you can also work in Final Cut Pro and After Effects if you want. The principles are the same.Â
By the end of this class you’ll be able to make your own visual magic. So let’s create something awesome!
