To Share out the gifs click on the gif and use the share tools. On mobile and touchscreens, press down on the gif for a couple of seconds and the save option will appear. The higher the number, the more colors and detail there will be – but keep in mind that this will increase file size.Ĭhange the Image Size to 240x240px., then click Save at the bottom.On desktop right click the animation and select save. The number next to the GIF file determines how precise the GIF colors will be compared to the original JPEGs or PNGs. If your GIF has gradients, choose the dithered file type in order to prevent color banding. Since our Fenix GIF only has solid colors, we'd better opt for “no dither”. Next, choose the file type to save the GIF as shown under the Preset dropdown. Save it for online use by clicking File > Export > Save for Web (Legacy). So 0.3s or longer is best for the last frame.Īfter refining the lines and adding color and details, the sticker is almost done. Since the sticker will loop forever (select looping options to make loop forever), if you set the last keyframe to 0.1s, it's going to make people feel as though there is no interval between this frame and the first one. The breakdown shows that Fenix tries hard to blow a kiss, so you need to give him a little bit more time (about 0.3s) to prepare. Set each frame for 0.1 seconds with the exception of the breakdown and the last keyframe. As the heart grows larger and larger, his hands will be gradually put down and change back to the initial pose. In order to make Fenix more vivid, his tail, ears, and hair should be changed a little bit as well.Īfter Fenix put both hands on his mouth, there's going to be a heart-shaped kiss that comes from his mouth. So the in-betweens will include a left hand up with a closed left eye and a right hand up with a closed right eye. But here, we will make him raise the left hand first and then the right hand.Īlso, at the same time, he will close his eyes when his hands touch his mouth. When Fenix blows a kiss, he will first need to raise his hands one after the other or in the meantime I'll leave that up to you. Usually, one second of 2D animation will contain at least 24 frames, but Photoshop only allows us to put in ten frames at most in one second, so don't bother drawing too many in-betweens. Remember, each pose should be on a separate layer. He's a fennec fox who lives in the desert, with ears much larger than those of other foxes.īased on the references, we're going to set two keyframes (the initial pose and the final pose) as well as one breakdown (the kissing pose). Since our GIF is based on layers/frames, choose the Create Frame Animation. Next, open Photoshop and create a 2,000x2,000px. And do to that, we first need to find some photo references. This GIF is going to be focused on our mascot, Fenix, who will be blowing a kiss. Today we're going to implement these practices to make a little fox GIF in Photoshop. Toniko Pantoja, PWOW Workshop - Introduction to Animation Breakdowns "A breakdown is a drawing/pose that connects your poses." So when making a GIF, we can use some common 2D animation practices for reference, such as key frame, breakdown, or in-between.
#Closed hands gif series
GIFs usually have at least one character, and that character has a series of movements, such as laughing or crying.
Then presto! You're done!īut when it comes to making a GIF, that gets a little more complicated.
The only thing you need is a picture of a celebrity or anything else you want and add some sarcastic comments. Who doesn't? After all, it's super simple and incredibly fast.
