*FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS* 1. ENABLING ARROW-KEYS SHORTCUTS Click the timeline options icon (four horizontal lines) in the top-right corner of the timeline panel, then click "Enable Timeline Shortcut Keys," you should now be able to use the left and right arrow keys to change frames. (I hadn’t realized they were disabled by default when I made this tutorial) 2. CHANGING DURATION OF TIMELINE >5 SEC This is a dumb aspect of the timeline and requires a workaround. Make another layer (just a normal layer will do) and then drag it to the right. The timeline duration will automatically adjust; but if you move that blank layer back again, it will shorten again. Now you can extend the video layer you were animating. 3. INSERTING NEW FRAMES BETWEEN EXISTING ONES With the video layer selected, go to Layer> Video Layers> Insert Blank Frame. 4. COPY/PASTE CONTENT FROM EXISTING FRAME ONTO ANOTHER FRAME With your video layer selected, press cmd+A to select the entire frame. Move in your timeline to the frame you want to paste the copied frame to, and press cmd+SHIFT+V (paste in place). 5. CHANGING TIMELINE FRAME RATE Shown at 1:25
How do I use the same frame again (instead of always drawing a new frame) ? when I try to copy and paste a drawing it messes up and im kind of a dummy to figure out the photoshp tools
@@bossle6834 Dude, I had that same problem when I was first experimenting with it and haven't found a workaround. But you should try googling it; maybe someone has figured it out by now? It's definitely a quirk with photoshop that shouldn't be such an issue. Wish I knew. -- Tyler
@@bossle6834 i think you can right click and something about duplicating the layer pops up. Or drag the desired frame(layer) down to the new layer icon at the bottom to make a duplicate. Sorry its hard to explain, and you might've gotten it by now.
@@bossle6834 maybe try cuting that part of the video layer and then tranform it to an inteligent object then you should be able to copy and paste it I think
Yeah do it! I started last year, I sucked back then as you could see by the videos posted on my acc lmao but I’ve gotten better (edit: the videos are on a different acc of mine I forgot but take my word for it)
This is the greatest Photoshop animation video ever made. Trying to learn and watched several that totally over complicated. Thanks for simple and quick with many examples in a short amount of time. Perfect.
This is great basic animation video in PS! Only thing, you way want to show the completion on how to export for use. Your video animation plays while in PS as you have "loop playback" enabled so it keeps looping it. When you select the "forever" option when making a gif and you export the file it does just that. But with "loop playback" in only loops the playback in PS for just that: "playing back" when you export/render the video it only plays in once so you do not get the effect that you see in PS with "loop playback" enabled. I think this tutorial would have even better if you also included this information as well on now to export the video so that it plays "forever" or looped to get the wiggling effect, otherwise it plays once and you don't get the wiggle effect.
I liked it(and subscribed)! I’m familiar with Photoshop but not with animation there. New to this. Watched few different channels on this topic before this and this is the first one with clear sound explanation!Thank you!

Creativid Studios thank you so much!!! I thought my computer was just wigging out! Lol! 🤣😅 thankfully that’s not the case... but thank you again for the awesome tutorial!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
good guide, i want to ask if possible to make decent animation for dialog (shape lips) using your method: video timeline+ new video layer from files , and just adding templates of character with different lip shapes for each letter?
Yeah, totally! Just make sure that after you bring in the audio clip(s) onto the audio track, you enable the audio playback by clicking the speaker icon next to the play button on the timeline. That may have been obvious to you, but I'm just mentioning that bc i don't usually use adio in photoshop, and i hadn't even noticed that button until i *really* searched. Thx for the comment!
Thanks 😊 I dont think I'm adept enough to contribute more than what is already available on youtube for photoshop. I felt this one was an exception bc it's a very unknown-about topic for a lot of artists. Thanks for your comment 😁
Make sure your timeline is a video timeline and not a frame animation timeline. Are your timeline layers video layers (blue)? Or static layers (purple)? They need to be blue video layers to enable onion skins. I think the problem when you rotate is that you may have copied and pasted the image to multiple layers; if you change one you change all instances of it. Yeah, I know that's pretty dumb of photoshop. If you aren't trying to make a hand-drawn animation, I recommend just using after effects. :) - Tyler
Thanks for this bro, it really helped! quick question though. Whenever I export it, it always comes out as lots of JPegs. is there some sort of actual video format i can export it as? thanks
Ok, I think i figured out what happened, but let me know. In the "render video" export window, switch the "photoshop image sequence" drop-down to "Adobe media encoder" and more options should appear. I use quicktime format (uncompressed) when I export assets, so they don't loose quality for later down the pipeline. :)
This is a great vid to get started on animation in setting up photoshop! I use cs6 and before I upgraded to extended, I was doing the timeline animation so this is really neat!
Amazing video, very motivating! Is there a way to show the same frame twice in a video layer? I want to keep the framerate 24 but animate in 2s. Actually I want to have the freedom of animating in 2s or 1s or 3s whenever I want. Is this possible to do with a video layer or do I have to make a million regular layers and time them each one by one? Also I noticed that the new Photoshop now has a Position and Opacity Key underneath the layers. Just like After Effects but I couldn't figure out how to move the drawing in a way that would register as a key for the position key. Love your vids!
Crap!! Just saw this comment and it's a great question. My approach is to set the timeline frame rate from 24 to whatever is the same as that increment (12 fps / 8fps). Then render the video as a 24 frame export, so it has the amount of frames you want.
2:43 lost u on that point, how did u move the time readerthing? by pressing right arrow key? i did that but it doesnt move like urs. # nevermind i found that u mentioned about that, so, its solved. thanks for the tutorial, never knew its so easy in ps.
Search "Olof Storm" on UA-cam he is VERY skilled in 2d photoshop animation. Good place to look for inspiration and some really good tips and tutorials.
Hi. Good question! So, from how I understand it, you can't insert or delete frames from a video layer :/ However, I think if you have your timeline as a frame animation, you might be able to... but idk because I've only tried the frame animation timeline a couple times when I was first messing around with the photoshop timeline. Wish I could help more, but my suggestion is to google it. :/ --Tyler
Edison Anderson so if you have two frames and you want to and a frame in between them, make sure your on the first frame then go to Layers- Video Layers- and select “Insert Blank Frame” then a frame will be added in between your two other frames :) (theres also an option in the same place to delete a frame)
Hey! I have a request, can you please make a tutorial on how to "animate" with stock photos, I came across a video a few days ago and I was wondering if I could do something like that, thanks😁
Search "Adobe Animate beginner tutorials" on youtube. "Animate" used to be called "Flash." Thats what I recommend using for that style. I dont work in Animate, though, so 🤷
james allen I think I understand what you’re asking, you mean how to loop the playback? You can click the timeline options menu (the four lines in the top right of the timeline) and then select “loop playback.” Thanks for the view & comment! -Tyler
If im making an animation say of just a smiley face, and I want that same picture to appear in the next frame just changed a bit, how do I do this without having to draw it all over again>?
I cant seem to expand my video layer. I can't drag it to the right to expand i can only reduce it or drag to the left. Is it not posible to make it longer?
Someone else had this problem too a long while back. Here is my response to them asking that: Hi, yeah I have a janky solution, but it does work. Make another layer (just a normal layer will do) and then drag it to the right. The timeline duration will automatically adjust; but if you move that blank layer back again, it will shorten again. It's such a dumb fix, but that's the only way I know how haha. --Tyler
Hi. Do you mean it's going at a rate faster than 18 fps? If playback is working properly and the animation is faster than you want, you need to make the changes between the frames smaller changes (smaller movements) and so you will need more frames in your animation. But if it's that the playback isn't using the fps you set, idk how to fix that problem. :/ -- Tyler
There's not exactly an insert frame function (that I'm aware of). WORKAROUND: I'd say split the layer where you want to insert a frame. Move the second half of the split (2nd video layer) over one frame and add a frame to the end of the first video layer. (IDK if there is a shortcut for layer splitting, so I'd just duplicate and trim.)
Hi! I used to assume so, until I tried it-- when you make a copy of the image for the new frame and then manipulate it in the new frame, it (at least in the past) also changes the other copy on the other frame. Idk a work around for this. It may have been fixed tho. Idk --Tyler
Hi. All the frames are already there, once you have a video layer. To move between frames within the timeline, use the left and right arrow keys on your keypad. 2:39
There must be a quicker and easier way to go to the next frame but keeping what you already drew, such as a time-lapse animation of a painting for example. thanks
Hey. That's a really good question. My work-around is to duplicate the video layer and then trim both copies so that the edit point is where you want to insert frames. (To duplicate the layer Command+J / Ctrl+J with the layer selected on the layer panel on the right) Then move the second half over to make room to add to the first half. Hopefully, I've described it well enough; if not, send me a quick email and I can send you some screenshots. --Tyler
hi. used one of the grunge style brushed with the brush tool then just turned up the size of it. then i just clicked it around the canvas pretty randomly for each frame.
@@sagaraleasorg Yes, by offsetting a bunch of duplicates of the animated background. Make sure you animate the background on a separate video layer under the foreground animation layer. Select the BG layer and "Command + J" to duplicate it. Then offset on the timeline it to start when the other one ends. Keep doing that until you hav enough loops. **For some reason when I duplicate the video layer, the new layer is untrimmed and I have to re-trim it to the correct length. You might have that same issue. Let me know if this solves your issue or if I need to clarify anything.
@@BWayMotion If your background animation is 2 seconds long and you need to extend it to match a 10-second animation, you would indeed need to duplicate the 2-second animation multiple times. You need to duplicate the 2-second animation 5 times to achieve a continuous 10-second background animation. Am I correct?
Crap, just realized I hadn't responded sorry 😕 I think what that was saying the frame you were on in the timeline didn't have the selected layer within it - the layer you were trying to draw on isn't seen at that timecode. You'd would need to make sure whatever layer you have selected (the one you are trying to draw on) is extended to include the frame that the playhead is on. Im finding this very hard to explain... hopefully that made a bit of sense?
Bro I watched this video like 2 years ago, forgot how to do it, searched how to animate in CC again and watched like 7 USELESS videos before seeing I have watched this before and within the first three minutes showed me what I wanted instead of the 1+ hours of worthless videos
edit nevermind, I had to make the video group, then make new frames inside of that, finally getting the hang of it... sort of. No idea why the audio is making an entirely new canvas though aha How did you get your layer to immediately become video layers? Mine are just frames or... well, they're purple. Whenever I add an audio track it opens a copy of my canvas and my layers are all like... in one video layer even if they're technically different. It's weird, I'm really new to this moving over from Adobe animate I also don't have the video layers option ): I hope I don't have to go back to Animate it may be fast but it drops my quality a crazy amount without being able to shade and having such a bad brush.

hi. used one of the grunge style brushed with the brush tool then just turned up the size of it. then i just clicked it around the canvas pretty randomly for each frame.
Is there any way to include looped texture background instead of painting all frames?
@@sagaraleasorg Yes, by offsetting a bunch of duplicates of the animated background.
Make sure you animate the background on a separate video layer under the foreground animation layer.
Select the BG layer and "Command + J" to duplicate it. Then offset on the timeline it to start when the other one ends. Keep doing that until you hav enough loops.
**For some reason when I duplicate the video layer, the new layer is untrimmed and I have to re-trim it to the correct length. You might have that same issue.
Let me know if this solves your issue or if I need to clarify anything.
@@BWayMotion If your background animation is 2 seconds long and you need to extend it to match a 10-second animation, you would indeed need to duplicate the 2-second animation multiple times.
You need to duplicate the 2-second animation 5 times to achieve a continuous 10-second background animation.
Am I correct?
@@sagaraleasorg correct
i cant draw when i go to the next frame because it says the the frame head is over the target layer in timeline? what do i do????
yes same
Crap, just realized I hadn't responded sorry 😕 I think what that was saying the frame you were on in the timeline didn't have the selected layer within it - the layer you were trying to draw on isn't seen at that timecode. You'd would need to make sure whatever layer you have selected (the one you are trying to draw on) is extended to include the frame that the playhead is on. Im finding this very hard to explain... hopefully that made a bit of sense?
@@BWayMotion got it
Bro I watched this video like 2 years ago, forgot how to do it, searched how to animate in CC again and watched like 7 USELESS videos before seeing I have watched this before and within the first three minutes showed me what I wanted instead of the 1+ hours of worthless videos
edit nevermind, I had to make the video group, then make new frames inside of that, finally getting the hang of it... sort of. No idea why the audio is making an entirely new canvas though aha
How did you get your layer to immediately become video layers? Mine are just frames or... well, they're purple.
Whenever I add an audio track it opens a copy of my canvas and my layers are all like... in one video layer even if they're technically different. It's weird, I'm really new to this moving over from Adobe animate
I also don't have the video layers option ): I hope I don't have to go back to Animate it may be fast but it drops my quality a crazy amount without being able to shade and having such a bad brush.
Great man thanks a lot, cane i ask you what is the name of then background music ✌
Thank you! And I don't remember the name of the music. I had changed the name that the music file is saved as on my drive.
can you change the size after drawing the animations?
Tracey Ullman show with George Benson's great music.
Wut.
@@BWayMotion The musical intro the the Tracey Ullman show. Look for it. Squiggly letters and boxes.
