It’s been far too long since I’ve shared an animation tutorial, so this week, we’re creating an easy birthday sparkler! If you have a basic to intermediate understanding of Procreate, but haven’t explored animating yet, this tutorial was made for you :)
We’ll start by creating our base illustration, then create a new canvas and set the flattened artwork as our background layer. Next, we’ll start creating our different frames and I’ll share my favorite animation + export settings so it’ll be ready to share once finished! 💥

CREATE THIS PROJECT WITH:
✅ Canvas Texture Procreate Brushes: every-tuesday.com/envato-canvas
✅ Color Palette (free): every-tuesday.com/sparkler-color
---------------------------------------------------------------
TECH STUFF + ACCESSORIES I USE
✨ This artwork was created on a 5th gen iPad Pro (12.9”, 256GB) with a 2nd gen Apple Pencil using the Procreate app (v.5.2.6)
✨ I use the Paperlike screen protector on my iPad Pro, as well as their pencil grips. More info here: every-tuesday.com/paperlike
✨ When not in use, I keep my Apple Pencil in the NimbleStand: every-tuesday.com/stand
✨I recommend any iPad listed here for working in Procreate: every-tuesday.com/ipads as they all allow for pressure sensitivity. I only recommend an Apple Pencil because of its reliability compared to other 3rd party styluses
