Animating in Procreate. Simple Steps to Create Awesome Animations

If you can draw—even a stick figure—you can animate, and acclaimed illustrator and animator Danni Fisher-Shin is here to show you how!

Animation may seem daunting, but programs like Procreate 5 are making it easier than ever for artists and illustrators to bring their work to life. Danni knows this firsthand, and her cel animation style as translated to Procreate makes what can feel like an impossibly complex process much simpler, more efficient, and easier to refine.

Known for her empowering female character designs, Danni’s style brings fun and energy to this class that you won’t want to miss. Throughout her artistic career, Danni has experimented with different styles, formats, and methods of creating art. Procreate 5’s new animation tools—specifically a handy little feature called Animation Assist—have made her interest in animating on her iPad that much easier. And now she’s passing those skills on to you. If you’re curious about animation but have never quite managed to try it, Danni’s step-by-step class is perfect for you!
