Hi everyone my name is Irina and in
today's video I'm gonna show you how to
create this fun lemon animation. Let's
start now! With a Studio Pen brush and
the yellow color draw an ellipse and
then fill it. Now let's copy the layer
and finish the shape of the upper half
of the lemon. Go to the colors, pick a
white and then drop it on the inner
ellipse. Now make the layer a little
smaller. For the second half we're gonna
draw a new ellipse and then make a new
layer to draw the body under.
Let's copy and recolor the inner part
and also make it a bit smaller.
Don't forget to lock the layers and then
create a Clipping Mask to start the
shading. Here I'm using my Textured Paper brush, you can make your own by following
the instructions I wrote for you in the
description box. Of course you can use
any other texture brush, just keep a
light hand and don't push too much the
pencil on the screen so you'll have more
control.
To see what color I'm using always look
at the circle on the upper right corner
of the iPad and if I'm moving too fast
for you feel free to pause the video at
any time to catch up and press play
whenever you are ready.
Now we'll make a new layer to draw the
inner part.
Don't stress too much about making it
perfect, you can always reshape it
with the Transform Tool, you have several
options here
but I chose Warp
Now let's add some shading with white
and orange.
I find it easier to make the slices by
erasing the top layer instead of drawing
a new one. Two finger taps to undo in
case you make any mistake (that's the
shortcut).
Connect the pieces together in the
center and add a touch of dark blue
shading.
Now let's make a new layer for the seeds
and put some shadows and light to make
them look good.
Don't forget about the shadows under
them, I'm using orange and dark blue here.
Now we have to repeat the process for
the other half of the lemon. This one
looks bigger on the screen and also is
closer to us, so I'm paying more
attention to the shading and using
multiple shades. Let's add some
reflective light and a touch of white to
add more volume.
Some more shading on the inside
and then we just draw the middle part
where the slices connect and fill and
shade everything.
Modify the layer transparency and we're
done! Okay, now that the illustration part
is done it is very important to merge
everything on a single layer and then
turn on the Animation Assist. This is
where the fun begins. We're gonna draw
the animation frame by frame and layer
by layer. Just remember every single
layer will be a new frame. You can either
touch Add layer as I do here or New
layer on the layer menu, it's the same
thing. Also you can group layers in a
single frame.
Now tap the settings on the Animation
Assist tool to set the way you want to
see the frames on the screen; here I'm
using maximum onion skin frames with a
60% opacity.
Now would be the perfect time to check
our animation. I like it so we'll go
further to add volume and shadows to the
drops using the same technique as we did
before.
I don't want you to get bored so I'll
skip to the last frame. Just press play
and enjoy your new animation! If you want
