Adobe Fresco Tutorial for Beginners: Getting Started!
Рет қаралды 213,519
Жыл бұрынAre you ready to get started with Adobe Fresco? This video was made for those you that aren't too familiar with Adobe Fresco, but even if you are, I'll be talking about my workflow and giving some tips that I use-so I guess it's for everyone! Follow along with me as I go through the different tools, brush settings, layer options, motion tools and more.
There are a few reasons why Fresco is my preferred drawing app over other apps, like Procreate. { Here's a video that goes deep into that comparison: • Adobe Fresco vs Procre... }
Fresco is part of the Adobe Creative suite and works seamlessly with the other apps, like Photoshop and Illustrator. As a professional illustrator I'm almost always dealing with photoshop and illustrator documents as they're the industry standard.
Let me know if you learned anything new, and don't hesitate to ask questions in the comments. I try to respond as quickly as I can! I post new videos every Tuesday-so don't forget to subscribe!

Another awesome Fresco video - thanks, Chris. By the way, you mentioned the ‘Learn’ content on the home screen. It actually contains excellent walk-throughs and videos to teach users how to use Fresco. So, yet another cool feature that distinguishes it from the competition.

Chris, THANK YOU so much for your videos. You are opening up worlds of possibility for me as a beginner with this app. I don’t know the best way to ask a question, but here goes… Is there a way to easily close a shape, either with the pixel or vector brush (or some other tool)? Or do you have to keep drawing and then clean it up? (The Touch Shortcut and Vector Trimming tips you gave are super helpful.)
@chris-piascik 5 ай бұрын
So glad this was helpful. I can’t think of any easy way to close a shape without fully drawing it though. You maybe be able to snap to shape when you’re close to closing it.

Just stumbled upon your channel - some absolutely amazing content on there!! This video included! I definitely prefer adobe fresco to procreate even after just a week of trying fresco. There is just something limiting about procreate's too-simplified interface that I never really jelled with. With Adobe fresco, I feel like I have more control and I love how it works with the rest of the adobe suite! Thanks for this introduction video. It's great getting a quick overview and this video is top quality, so a joy to watch! Can't wait to see your content and channel grow in the future :)

Thanks! The reason you can mix vector and raster is because the layers need to be either vector or raster, if you used a vector brush on a layer that wasn’t vector it wouldn’t be vector. Hopefully that makes sense!

@chris-piascik 3 ай бұрын
Thanks so much! I’m still rocking a 2021 iPad Pro with the M1 with no issues. I’ll upgrade to the new one, but only because I’m an Apple nerd. But even that didn’t make me want to upgrade to the last version. The iPad’s especially the Pros have been overpowered for a long time now. Also Fresco was built from the ground up for the iPad so it’s extremely well optimized for it. It runs fine even on my old iPad mini. I’d say any iPad with a M1 (and up) chip is going to be very solid and last many years without feeling underpowered. My wife is also an illustrator and has the M1 iPad Air and that works great too.

Hello Chris, great video... I enjoyed watching this, I do have one rather big issue... ive been drawing an image... i use the bucket tool in areas of the image as youve demonstrated but... it continuous chooses to paint the full page with said color... I also tried using (paint within the lines) tool and that was completely ignored ... so i am very much on the verge of deleting the app and going back to illustrator but i dont suppose you know how or what option I can choose to amend this?
@chris-piascik 4 ай бұрын
It sounds like you might need to lower the fill margin (the slider that pops up when you use the paint bucket), if that doesn’t work you may have inadvertently set a layer as a reference layer.

Hi! Non-pro model iPads have been able to use the Apple Pencil for a while now. And iPads have been very powerful for a while now too, so in my opinion the best budget option would be to find an older iPad used or refurbished with the first generation pencil. The original pencils worked just as well as the new ones they just charge a bit more clumsily. You can find what iPads work with the Apple Pencil here: support.apple.com/en-us/HT211029#:~:text=You%20can%20use%20Apple%20Pencil%20(1st%20generation)%20with%20these%20iPad,iPad%20(10th%20generation)* I have a mini in addition to my pro and I like drawing on it.

I'm researching which digital art program to use w a good learning curve. Thinking fresco, I already use Adobe for creating PR work. Can I use the Procreate templates in fresco? I'm not a fine artist, but I want to start making IG templates and brushes to make passive income.

I think Fresco is definitely the most versatile. I’m not 100% sure about the templates as I don’t know what they are.

Wow, Adobe straight up stole Procreate and added a vector brush. 😂 Great video though. Very helpful!

Fresco is a combination of Adobe’s old, early mobile apps “Sketch” and “Draw” with a ton of motion features added in, plus the live brushes. Glad it was helpful!

As someone who is getting back into design, and now with an iPad (welcome to 2010!), do I bother learning Procreate or just go to Fresco? It seems like Illustrator but without the math.
@chris-piascik 4 ай бұрын
Well Fresco does both pixel and vector, that’s one of my favorite parts. This video explains my feelings on Fresco vs procreate and may help you decide. They’re both great, and mostly do the same things.

@@chris-piascik My plan is to draw for vinyl and laser cutouts which means vector graphics wherever I can. We also want to make stickers and shirt designs which we can print and cut out afterward, so there will likely be some rasterized drawings as well, but if I'm working mostly in vector graphics, it may make sense to work with Fresco then. My wife is taking a course on Udemy on Procreate ($18 ftw) and I'm considering a course from either there or Skillshare. Thanks for replying. I've been loving your content as we prepare for something new!

Can you add audio from your photos to fresco?

The only downside of fresco is that you can't save the files locally.That's really a bummer and i think because of that lot of artist are staying away from fresco.Cause artist who make more complex and heavy art will eventually run out of space because of the heavy files.And most artist don't have the large income to keep buying the cloud storage plans. I think you should really make a video regarding the storage thing for fresco.Or just your experience on the storage.
@chris-piascik Жыл бұрын
I do hear that complaint often, but it’s never been an issue for me because it’s easy to transfer files out of creative cloud when I need to, though I’ve never ran into space issues so far and I’ve been using it for many years.

Wait a minute.... are you saying that everything you do is automatically recorded and can be played as a timelapse? If so, can the timelapse video be saved on the computer so we can post it on social media/youtube .. and also, can you tweak how fast/slow the timelapse plays?

Hi there, could you tell me which brush package/bundle to buy for the classic anchor? I want to use it in fresco but I’m not sure under which category (photoshop or illustrator) the item is listed. Thanks for your help!:)

The classic inker? That’s in their liner set, fresco uses photoshop brushes.

Yes, the classic inker. Thank you for letting me know. Is it also possible to install your illustrator brushes onto fresco?

Hello, in Fresco, can we set individual start times for each moving object? For example, if I have two objects in motion, I would like the second one to start moving after the first one stops.
@chris-piascik 6 ай бұрын
Unfortunately not, but you can sometimes get around it by adding in blank frames at the beginning of a sequence you want to delay.

Oh hmm, that's just a pattern I made. It's just my illustration style-but I'd say it's a mix of retro, cartoon, illustrative lettering.... I don't know if there any specific books aside from my own, but those are just pictures and not tutorials. I do have videos on this channel where I talk about my style and process if that helps.

Hey Chris! I recently started using AF and love it. Unfortunately I'm having an issue with Vector Trimming. For some reason, the previous vector paths that I've made are no longer trim-able. Now when I try to trim it, it removed all the paths that are touching each other (95% of my artwork). What really trumps me is that vector trimming works just as its supposed to with new paths that I lay down. This issue has really interrupted the workflow I was enjoying with Fresco. Would you happen to know anything that I'm experiencing? Theres nothing I can find searching online.
@chris-piascik 8 ай бұрын
This can happen if you’ve filled in a part of it with the paint bucket… it does something to the path / shape to make the trimming no longer work. Could that be a possibility?
@nicolasn3832 8 ай бұрын
@@chris-piascik omg!! you’re right, now that I recall it did stop working right after I used the bucket tool on my shape. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! This was driving me crazy and nobody mentioned that this was a possibility. Again thank you 🙏🏼

I really like this demonstration video!! truly amazing! But I just can’t seem to merge my layers. Whenever I do animation it won’t let me for some reason? I think it only works with drawing but I don’t want to believe that. Can you do a video on this if you’re available?
@chris-piascik Жыл бұрын
Thank you! You can merge layers because it would flatten the animation, but you can group them! Just drag your animation layer onto the other one you want to combine it with. Then you’ll be able to move and transform them all together.

@@chris-piascik i’m trying to copy and paste one of my characters eyes right? But then when I paste that one eye it becomes another layer but the problem is that I can’t merge that other eye down to the right eye so it can be easier for me to only edit the eyes only.. but together in unison.. you get what I’m saying? Like apps like FlipaClip allows you to copy and paste onto different layers but you’re able to merge the two layers down and only edit the two eyes at the same time.. but I can’t do that on Adobe Fresco I have to group them but when I do group them they’re still separate and I can’t even edit them the same way I can like on FlipaClip, etc… I don’t know this is my first time using fresco for its animation.. and I guess I’m just a little frustrated that it’s not something that I’m used to..
