APR 2 THU / WEBINAR : Teela : Animation Basics with Procreate Watercolours

How I found/got in this webinar.
During the crisis of Covid19, a lot of professionals and organizations started offering webinars via emails. One of the calligraphy artists I follow, Teela Cunningham emailed subscribers that she will have a webinar about how to create an animation using Procreate. Since I’m a motion graphic major, have a huge interest in calligraphy and just recently purchased Procreate, I signed up for a seat. 

How it works
After signing up, I received a confirmation email and link to the webinar held on CrowdCast. It was my first time attending a webinar but I loved it. It was easier to hear and see what the speaker was presenting and also asking a question on the chat was more convenient than waiting until the end of the speech and raising my hand etc. 

Male host was the first one who started speaking on the screen. He introduced Teela on a dual screen and started asking her what she will be teaching us and he read the comments from the chat and asked the speaker. There were about 3000 people watching it from various states and countries. 

What was it about
Teela runs a website that offers a lot of free/premium tutorials and graphic design freebies. She showed how to create an animation step by step that will showcase your typography skills strongly on social media such as Instagram.

Webinar was definitely different from online tutorials
Overall the experience was very delightful and convenient, especially because of quarantine. I haven’t been able to go out and mingle with people, and the webinar felt like I was actually sitting amongst people which felt pretty good. I did purchase Procreate but wasn’t sure how to utilize it so It was very helpful too. I think I will attend more webinars more often.
