When it comes to drawing, its interface is
very similar to procreate. Like its sister app on the top right, there is a color
picker, layer selector, eraser, and blending icons. Tapping them opens several settings
with different brush sections.
Unlike Procreate the bottom half is new
which is the animation section, there is a timeline where video, audio, and 2d
animation can be added with frames. Its process of adding frames and timeline
is simple as it's done by just drawing on top of the selected area.
Its simplicity has drawbacks for example
there is a limit in clip length which can be constricting, when it comes to
this project it won't be a hassle but if I had to long term fully animate
something that was two minutes, it would be a big inconvenience. The simplicity
also makes options limited for example there are no alpha lock layers. This feature
allows for anything drawn on the layer to be locked into space. A way to get
around this feature not being here is by using a clip mask, but it adds a layer,
and it doesn’t lock the layer it just makes that whatever is drawn on the top
layer will only show up where the bottom layer is drawn on, but the drawing is
still there.
Procreate Dream is not a perfect program,
but it fulfills the needs of my film, that’s what matters, I wished that
something would be better, and it would cause me to change my strategy on how I
will animate on my film but it won't stop me. I just must be adaptable.
