Film & Animation
Introduction
Creating your very own PNGTuber can be both an exciting and rewarding venture. With tools like Procreate and Veadotube, you can easily design and animate a character that represents you online. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process.
Step 1: Designing Your PNGTuber in Procreate
Procreate is a powerful digital illustration app available for iPad. To get started:
Open Procreate: Start a new canvas. A size of 1920 x 1080 pixels is a good dimension for a PNGTuber.
Sketch Your Character: Use the pencil tool to sketch out your character design. Think about what features you want to highlight – colors, accessories, expressions, etc.
Refine Your Design: Once you are happy with the sketch, create a new layer and outline your character with a clean brush. Focus on the details and shapes.
Add Color: Fill in your character with colors that represent your personality. Be sure to choose contrasting colors for different parts to make them pop.
Create Different Expressions: It’s beneficial to create different facial expressions or poses as separate layers. This adds variety to your character when you animate later.
Export Your PNG: Once your character is complete, export your image as a PNG file. This preserves the transparency, which is vital for your PNGTuber.
Step 2: Setting Up Veadotube
Veadotube is a tool that allows you to animate your static PNGTuber, making it interactive for your audience.
Open Veadotube: Go to the Veadotube website and sign up or log in.
Upload Your PNG: Upload the PNG file you created in Procreate. Make sure your PNG file has a transparent background for the best effect.
Configure Expressions: Specify the expressions or animations you've drawn. This includes configuring which layer corresponds to which expression.
Test Your PNGTuber: Veadotube allows you to test how your character looks and responds. Make tweaks as necessary to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Step 3: Going Live
Once your PNGTuber is set up in Veadotube:
Connect Your Streaming Software: Integrate Veadotube with your streaming software (like OBS Studio) to display your PNGTuber during streams.
Go Live: You’re now ready to engage your audience with your custom PNGTuber. Have fun and be creative!
Conclusion
Creating your own PNGTuber using Procreate and Veadotube can elevate your digital presence. It’s not just a creative outlet but can also enhance how you interact with your audience in streams or videos. Enjoy the process and let your imagination run wild!
