In this video, you will learn the basic process of creating rough animation in Harmony using thumbnails. Moreover, you will learn some advantages of using the Drawing view.
To create your thumbnails, you will see how to add a new colour swatch to your palette, use the onion skin and light table, rename layers, clone and duplicate layers, create empty drawings, use Current Drawing on Top, adjust the timing, and draw your key poses.
Finally, you learn about the drawing substitution concept, how to duplicate drawings, and remove all the artwork contained in an entire layer all at once.
