r/ProcreateDreams

at first I thought it was just bc I was watching YouTube on the same iPad I was using to animate (which is sorta true) however it’s still gets laggy at times even when I don’t have YouTube playing in the background

I'm looking to create cel animation in procreate and make tradional 2d animation.

Procreate Dreams helped me out so much when I was doing the animated portion of this video! The new ways it utilized the flip book feature helped sooooo much! I’ve used Toon Boom and Flash in the past, but Dreams is by far the best to satisfy folks who are into traditional animation (: I hope y’all enjoy (I even storyboarded this in Dreams so our camera man could follow story beats as the song progressed)

When I start animating initially, I can usually get about two hours of work before my iPad's battery drops to around 60 to 80%. I encounter issues where I’m animating too quickly, causing the software to crash and preventing me from drawing. I’ve tried all the troubleshooting solutions but still face the same problem. Sometimes, I can get up to four hours of animation, but that’s usually if I don’t have any other apps running. Despite this, I still run into the same issue where the software crashes and I can't animate or draw.

Ps - app is fully updated.

Specs for iPad
13inch
M4

So I am 16, and do 2d animation as a hobby. I like to create whimsical stories, and have storylines lined up. Rn I am working on a short film kind of animation (if it works out😅) for which I have a great storyline. But I want to create Ghibli styled, or traditional animation styles backgrounds which look hand painted (but I create on digital platforms only)

Whenever I create a backdrop it ends up looking flat, any suggestions on how to make better backdrops?

im gotta be honest i love procreate dream 2 but what if i ask a question for it. what they can added a copy and paste on drawing layers on flipnotes, and drawing. im not sure about that but im just curious that what you thoughts on it?

I’m making an animated music video and tried following the instructions to the tutorials I found, to convert my screen recording to an audio file, but the files don’t convert. Anyone know what to do?

I love this app, I'm making these while chillin at my fav coffee shop and its been so fun! And the wizard character is so silly it's ridiculous.
