You can toy with the opacity slider later if you’re finding the overlays difficult to work with. This is an incredibly useful fundamental of animation, as it allows you to see where the movement is coming and going from. Next is onion skin frames, a feature that overlays a faded view of the frames before and after your current frame to help line things up accurately. Traditional Disney animations use 24 fps, but that would mean drawing twice as many frames! I’d recommend starting with 12 fps – a pretty common industry standard that’s fast enough to give the illusion of movement whilst still retaining a nice crunchy style. First is frames per second (fps), which is how fast your animation will run. Tap Settings on the Animation Assistant and you’ll be given a set of options. Toggle Animation Assist on. This brings up a little bar at the bottom of the display that acts as your timeline for the animation. And, of course, I'll be showing you how to use clever tricks in Procreate and Lumafusion to do this.Once you’re set up, head to the Actions menu (the wrench icon in the top left) and select the Canvas tab. You'll get to see my preparation stage, watch as I do a highly detailed concept painting from idea to final polish, and follow along as I make it come to life with animation and camera movement. I'll be showing you every step of my process as I work on my idea of a mischievous girl snagging some food from a sleeping chef's food stand.

While my other course ends before I do all of the details and show a fully polished render, in this course, you'll be following me through my process of creating a highly detailed scene from concept to completion, and then we're going to take it a step further by animating it in Lumafusion. Think of this course as a direct continuation of where my first course stops. Whenever I post a high-rendered concept on social media, I am always asked if I have a tutorial for that image but I never do, so I created this course to address exactly that.
