What is Procreate Dreams?
Procreate Dreams is an awesome new addition to the Procreate app family.
Developed by Savage Interactive, the creators of Procreate, it’s not just another animation tool; it’s a motion graphics app, aiming to bring a fresh wave of creativity into the artwork of professionals, beginners, hobbyists, and content creators alike.
I believe this app may revolutionize the way we perceive digital animation tools.
It integrates elements somewhat similar to Adobe After Effects, offering more depth and flexibility in creating animations compared to traditional frame-by-frame animation apps.
You might be wondering why this is a big deal…
Well, let me explain a bit about its features and why it seems so promising.

Key Features of Procreate Dreams
Timeline Functionality
One of the standout features is its timeline functionality.
It allows artists to separate components into parts and animate them dynamically, giving a very hands-on approach to animation.
This feature, from what I can tell, should make animation tasks smoother and more intuitive, especially for those familiar with Procreate’s existing layering system.
Layers and Details
Procreate Dreams’ layers will allow you to work a lot with the details of each animation track.
I believe this would resonate well with artists who are already used to working with Procreate layers, and it will make the learning curve flatter.
Keyframing and Perform Feature
Procreate Dreams will have a keyframing feature, facilitating smooth, seamless animations without needing to redraw scenes constantly.
The “Perform” feature will allow artists to capture real-time movements, infusing the animations with a more organic feel. Imagine being able to breathe life into your artworks with just a few taps – that’s something I am especially looking forward to!
Video Clips and Sound Integration
On the technical side, Procreate Dreams will support incorporating video clips, and artists can draw directly onto these clips, adding dynamic layers to their creations.
Moreover, the app will allow you to include music and sound effects, enriching the whole creative expression.
For someone who loves to create engaging content, I think these features could be a big hit, offering more depth and layers to the artwork.
Who is Procreate Dreams For?
Procreate Dreams isn’t exclusively for the professionals out there.
I think it will become a versatile app that can be valuable for illustration artists keen on adding magical movements to their artworks, and for content creators striving to enhance their brand with compelling animated content.
I anticipate that Procreate Dreams has the potential to redefine animation, making it more accessible to artists, beginners, hobbyists, and, really, anybody who wants to dabble in the magical craft of animation.
I foresee incorporating Procreate Dreams into my classes and tutorials, helping budding artists to navigate through its features and unlock their creative potential.
Pricing and Availability
So, when can you get your hands on it, and how much will it cost?
Procreate Dreams will be exclusive to the iPad and Apple Pencil, priced at $19.99 as a one-time payment. It will be available on November 22, 2023!
I think this is a reasonable amount, considering all the excellent features it brings.
Plus, it’s a refreshing approach, freeing users from the ongoing burden of subscription fees and making advanced creative tools more accessible.
Conclusion
In wrapping up, it seems like Procreate Dreams will bring a new era of digital art and animation.
I am quite eager to explore its functionalities further and see how it integrates into my existing Procreate workflow.
Stay tuned for updates and feel free to send me your questions – let’s navigate this exciting new era in the digital art world together!
