Procreate Dreams is an exciting new animation app which allows budding animators the opportunity to break out their potential. This new app is available on the Apple App Store and does not require an account. Please see parental guidance section for more information. Over 2 weeks, we will explore this new app together, create our very own short story, and develop our creativity. Here’s what we will cover: Week 1 - introduction to the timeline. We will create a simple animation and explore the flipbook function - exploring the performance features. We will add exciting dynamics to our simple animation - experimenting with keyframes and movement - diving into audio. Adding sound effects and emotive music to our animation. Exploring text Week 2 - designing a story board. This week we begin planning out our short story creation - creating our artwork. Now that we have our storyboard, it’s time to create the animation. We will learn how to export files from the original Procreate app, and will also learn how to use hinges to animate moving parts more easily. - editing and tweaking. Our short story is almost complete. Now it is time to add audio and atmosphere. We will also look at more dynamic ways of creating a sense of depth in our animations. - finishing touches, then SHOWCASE! Once we have completed our animation, it’s time to share our hard work. Each learner will have the opportunity to share their animated short story with the group. By the end of this course, you will have a clear and confident understanding of how to use Procreate Dreams.

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.Reviews
