Sounds! I can’t wait for that update
so why can’t you add sound to the free one!
Sorry, but I explained my reasoning in the release post for 1.6.0 if you want to read it.
Hey ralph thank you for making this I feel more confident when I anim now thank you!
Glad to have helped, hope you keep at it and keep getting better.
Raph, can you tell me the process and exact steps you took in uploading and adding special effects to your video? Anyone else would also be okay. Thanks.
Such as, how to upload it to iMovie, if that is possible.
Well, I don’t really do any of that type of stuff. And I know some people use apps. But the main idea is to export the animation, either as a GIF or an MP4. From there, open up your app/program (iMovie for example). For iMovie, you’d want to now import the video into the new project. I don’t know iMovie, but follow video tutorials like this.
But the first step is always the same, you first need that GIF/MP4 from Stick Nodes.
I have an iPad, not a computer.
Do you need pro version to upload it to youtube?
You don’t, but it makes it easier since the Pro version can create an MP4 video, otherwise you’d need a secondary app to convert GIF -> video and then upload that.
How i can add sounds on this new version ?
Hey, well, if you have the 1.6.0 or 1.6.1 update AND are on Android, you should see new options under Frame Tools.
The iOS version of this update is still in the works.
When is the iOS update going to come out
This is one of the greatest questions I’ve ever read, ever.
