In this 4 part class we will first learn the basics of Procreate, including how to create layers and how to use brushes to create simple artwork. We will then move on to animating this artwork, looking at two different methods of animating the work. We will transform our artwork and create stunning animation. Procreate is an app which can be purchased on Apple iPads. It is simple to use and extremely versatile. Each class, the lesson will include hints and tips for helping us work well in Procreate, and students will follow along as I share my iPad screen to demonstrate how to design the animation. Students would benefit from watching the lesson on a computer while following along with what we do on their iPad. Students are also invited to share their work by posting it on the Outschool Classroom, and enjoying the creations of other students. Here’s a rundown of what to expect in each session: Day 1: Animating Text Day 2: Animating a single layer Day 3: Understanding frames and “onion skins” to create more complex animation Day 4: Creating stop-motion animation, plus how to export your finished work By the end of this course you will have grasped how to create simple animations in Procreate, and even tried out some more complex animations.

I'm a qualified teacher, experienced in teaching English, History, Music, and Art. I home educated my two children, who are now at university, and I have taught in mainstream schools, and in Special-Ed schools.
I have also taught piano, guitar, singing, and music theory, taking students through grade examinations.
I am experienced in teaching the British GCSEs, and through home-schooling, I taught my own children using American curriculum. I teach Language Arts, English Literature and Language, Creative Writing, Poetry - both writing, and reading, and many other fantastic and interesting topics.
I teach writing skills using the Writing Revolution techniques, and have seen students improve their writing skills rapidly using some of the techniques applied.
In addition, I worked as a graphic designer for 10 years, working from home, and offer graphic design and video editing classes, using Adobe Creative Suite, DaVinci Resolve, and soon, Affinity creative suite.
Growth Mindset is very important in my classes, and I encourage it in all learners - Growth Mindset is the belief that even if you can't do something or don't understand something, then you CAN learn how to do it or understand it. Growth Mindset says "I can't do it YET, but I can learn." Learning happens through making mistakes, and then modifying your approach, changing what you do, to improve. I encourage all learners to try, and to feel comfortable making mistakes, because that's how we all learn.
