What You'll Learn
Mastering Procreate Dreams has 7 chapters, each with their own project to create alongside me. Every class will level up your skills and confidence so you can start making your own ideas a reality.
Chapter 1Your First Animation
Bring a character to life within the first 10 minutes! Then spend the remainder of the chapter layering detail and nuance to the scene by exploring the fundamentals of Procreate Dreams. This will mean you’re ready to make your own projects as soon a you like.
Chapter 2Characters Made Simple
In this chapter we unlock the power of animating simple characters without needing to redraw every frame. This is a really fun process regardless of whether you’re a total beginner or a professional animator
Chapter 3Hand Drawn Animation
Traditional animation used to require a whole studio full of expensive equipment. With Procreate Dreams we can now recreate the whole process on a tiny iPad! In this chapter I’ll pull back the curtain and reveal the professional animation workflow within this powerful app.
Chapter 4Turn Illustrations into Cinematic Animation
If you’re an illustrator, or someone who just likes to draw, you’ll love this chapter. We take an existing illustration and selectively animate parts of it to create a cinematic shot.
Chapter 5Advanced Lighting
In this chapter I show you how to kick your lighting game up a notch with professional, automated lighting workflows. Everything from cast shadows to soft internal shadows.
Chapter 6The 3D Effect
In this chapter we learn to create the illusion of 3D space without needing to learn any 3D software. This will add polish and depth to your animation.
Chapter 7Camera Move Masterclass
In this chapter we do a deep dive into camera moves. I explain the process for achieving the classic camera moves we see in animated films and then create a full story telling camera move together with you.

FAQs

Mastering Procreate Dreams is designed for both complete beginners and seasoned professionals. There is something for everyone here. If you're just starting out in animation, the course will have space for you to grow as you become more confident. If you're comfortable with the animation process already you'll discover my ways of doing familiar things in this totally new app.
Each project has walk throughs for how to draw each element of the animation as well as my working files so that you can use them as a starting point if you like.

All the Mastering procreate dreams is possible to complete without knowledge of the original Procreate. I’ll touch on how to work effectively between the two apps but almost all of our time will be spent in Procreate Dreams

No, not at all. Any Ipad that can run Proreate Dreams will work perfectly. There are limitations on resolution and track numbers which may limit the complexity of your projects in some cases though. I have tested each project with an iPad Air from 2020, which is one of the earliest iPads that supports both Procreate Dreams and an Apple Pencil. Please check the compatibility list on Procreate's website if you have any concerns.
