Description The animation I made for this! It's Leafpool and Mothwing running under the night sky, with StarClan cats.
youtu.be/iJ1yp5GQ2zo

Thought I'd post it here since I don't really post my animations here. This is looped and doesn't need the audio so I thought it'd be nice to post.

You can also download the full PSD for a small cost if you like, by 'purchasing' to the right of the image. There you can see my layer setup, process and see the animation frame by frame.

Notes & Terms:
- PSDs are raw Photoshop files with all the layers and information intact before compression into an image file.
- To purchase, click on 'purchase' on the right, and then the 'download' button on the purchased psd
- You're free to play with it and edit it yourself! Just don't repost or redistribute this anywhere, or post any of your edits.
- PSDs work with Photoshop, Paint Tool Sai, Fire Alpaca, GIMP, Clip Studio Paint and Krita, although I haven't tested it in these programs, so be aware if you plan to buy!
- I cannot guarantee that this will work if you don't open it in Photoshop!
- Be aware PSD files can be quite big (especially animations), so be aware of the strength of your computer before purchasing. It's not my fault if your program struggles to open it I'm afraid!
- If you don't have the video timeline on your version of Photoshop, you won't be able to view it exactly as I do when working on it. Please be aware of this! 


(for every new thing I post, depending on what it is, I'll most likely offer a paid PSD download on the side. I won't advertise it every time, and I never expect you to get one/all of them, so don't worry, nothing will change!)

Hi! First I wanna say thank you for this, I've recently started doing my animation in PS instead of Flash; I was struggling with the format of PS but this helped a ton. I was just wondering the process you use to export it and upload to You-Tube? And I know the canvas is a little bigger than 1920x1080, so I was also wondering how you got it scaled down when exporting? Hope this makes sense, and thank you for your time <3

small side question, have you figured out how to tween with PS, or do you just use the 'move tool'?

That's actually a really interesting idea, I am a visual learner when it comes down to most things and I have always wanted to get into animation but never really knew where to start. The paid psd is a really cool thought because it allows someone like me to peel it apart and look at the process in depth from someone who is very skilled in what they are doing. Sadly I am on that starving artist train but when I do get some money I intend to come back and look at some of these. really neat concept.

P.s.: I love the lighting and atmosphere going on with this part, I am normally on top of your uploads but seems I have missed this one. It is incredibly smooth as per your work, but I really adore the shading and color choices used here. Really well done.

I'm glad you like the idea! I'm a visual learner myself so I always enjoy looking through peoples WIPs. I'd hope people would find this idea interesting!

thank you so much ;u;

Miss-Oli [2017-08-16 20:18:54 +0000 UTC]

I haven't seen anything like this before and honestly it's a really REALLY good idea.

Like if someone is starting out animation, they can view everything from backgrounds, characters, and locomotion all at the same time? and it's a great breakdown of the steps an animator takes to achieve their final goal. I absolutely love this. Unfortunately I don't have PS (yet) but I will gladly purchase one once I do!
