In this week’s tutorial, I use some simple vector elements to create a basic animated gif in photoshop. We go through the steps of setting up an RGB web artboard in illustrator to create our elements, setting up the correct photoshop file to create the animated gif, and finally, we save for web and properly export our animated gif. You can get the typeface used in the tutorial here. Enjoy!

It’s really be nice if you showed how to make the ‘first frame’. I couldn’t get a first frame or any frames. This was a very vague tutorial.

Hey, thanks for watching! The first frame is actually automatic when you open your timeline window (it’s whatever layers are visible (have the eye next to them) that make up the first frame). Then it’s just clicking the little ‘add new frame’ icon and turning different layers’ visibilities (eyeballs on in the layers palette) for each individual frame after that. Hope this helps! Apologies for any confusion!
