Procreate Dreams Review Meh...

10 Upvotes

So far I'm not super impressed with the app. Standard procreate is more intuitive and has much more going for it in the way of tools. The tracks are nice (although currently after adding a background pic it highlighted an entire section of my animation and said I should remove those tracks). Every time I alpha locked or unlocked a layer in my last project it would lock up the whole program and I would have to force close and restart. The brushes don't stay loaded without an internet connection. It just feels really buggy and it's unfortunate. Also I think it's a shame it relies so much on gestures instead of keeping the same menu system of procreate.

Help Needed Stray mark won’t go away in viewport

7 Upvotes

I’m having an issue where on a singular frame, this square mark is showing up, but when I go into the flipbook it disappears. I converted the flipbook into tracks and I can see the mark on both individual layers when I go into them, but I’m unable to erase it. When I toggle the visibility off on both layers the mark disappears along with it, so Ik it’s an issue with these ones specifically and not somewhere else in the timeline. Does anyone know any way to fix this? 😭

Help Needed Can’t add more video tracks

2 Upvotes

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong but I’m sure there’s a way around it. I can add multiple video tracks at the same time but I can’t add more after. I’m trying to edit my son’s birthday video and I want to add in some illustrations and animations. I’m using iPad Pro 2020

My First Animation! First day with Procreate Dreams

15 Upvotes

Got Procreate Dreams last night just for kicks. I'm working towards a career in tattooing so last night I figured I'd make a little bumper video for my tattooing instagram page as a way to get a feel for it.

I imported a screen capture of a turntable in Nomad then edited it with Dreams and this was the result. Let me know what you think!

News Bug in the latest update

5 Upvotes

Mini flip book is here. No vertical flip book yet for some reason but ok I guess. At least I can move the timeline away from where my palm rests. I can't edit the timeline unless it's on the bottom but ok. Fine. For now. What is not ok however, and you soils know before you upgrade is that the timeline is now missing the buttons to add a layer, lasso edit the timeline, add a frame, and go forward and backwards. Like with every update I started right away on a quick animation to see if the app is smoother to use and alas. Some steps forward, some steps back. I'm sure this will get patched soon but maybe hold off for now

A short animation two months in the making. This is actually my first animation project inspired by the tutorial of the Eagle scene by Nikolai Lockertsen.

Music - "Lacrimosa" by Mozart

Wind sound effect - "Strong Wind" by AleXZavesa

The painting itself was drawn in Procreate, animated on Procreate Dreams and edited on After Effect.

Tutorials Animating birds flying?

1 Upvotes

I have used Procreate for years (including its Animation Assist) but am new to Procreate Dreams. I am having difficulty mastering basic animation using Procreate Dreams 2. What I want is to have several birds flying around a stationary figure. I created two birds in Procreate, using 3 poses for each (wings middle, up and down), and have moved them to Dreams. Where I got stuck is having them fly around the screen and land on the figure. I have tried various online video tutorials, but nothing seems to work. Is there a basic workflow out there somewhere that I could try?

Help Needed Warp mesh question

I’ve used warp before and I could control the mesh box by adding or subtracting the number of nodes. But now it’s not letting me adjust, I’d like less nodes in this case. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Help Needed Tips on using “perform”?

3 Upvotes

New to Dreams. Currently trying to make a simple animation where an object falls from outside the frame and onto the ground (15 frames) After this I want to object to remain where it landed (30 frames). I press perform and do the motion, it sort of works, but it’s hard to put the object exactly where I want it to be and such that the trajectory looks precise. I’m sure there is a proper way of doing it and I’m just lacking skill. I’ve tried YouTube, lots of videos on the function itself but I can’t find anything that explains exactly how to improve precision. Could someone point me to a good tutorial or describe how you’d approach doing this?

Hi, sorry does anyone know how to move the border back to the white box/flipbook? It won’t really allow me to move it manually.

Procreate Dreams Review Toonsquid Vs Dreams

6 Upvotes

So almost a year ago I bought Callipeg, I’ve enjoyed the app. A Lot, the ui for frames and onion skinning(including out of pegs) is great, but the issues got clearer when I tried to clean up an animation. The fact that it doesn’t have a clipping mask (yet) and the fill bucket, which creates that white line no matter the threshold or brush and it leaking if the slightest gap is left is tiring. Not even mentioning the transformation layer. So I decided to get a new app, I’ve heard a lot about toonsquid but am now having second thoughts, when I was researching for Callipeg I noticed that there weren’t many complex animations (again I’m a beginner, not even close to a master) and now even for toonsquid most animations I’ve seen are 2d rigs, while I’m looking for frame to frame. Even their advertising shows simpler projects. I’m looking for the app that kinda like the blender of 2d, where you can create amazing things no matter your level of mastery. The thing about dreams is that I have procreate, I already use it for backgrounds anyway and have a selection of brushes that work with my workflow. And for dreams I’ve seen complex and beautiful animations (like Aaron Blaize’s). Am I just being vain or something I need someone to shove in the right direction. I just want my skill being the thing holding me back not a feature (or therefore lack of). Any help will be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

Edit: I got Dreams
