Tutorial - How-to-make-a-motion-banner-in-photoshop-easily-conclusion

Today we are going to finish the simple video tutorial in which we did a banner, and where we have learned how to use the Timeline tool to make a simple and effective sequence of images.

While in the video tutorial above, Video-Tutorial: How to make a moving banner in Photoshop easily, we saw how to make a simple composition of a banner with an image downloaded from the internet and some layers of text, in today's post, How to make a moving banner in Photoshop easily (conclusion), let's give animation to that composition. 

  1. We open the file that came from previous video tutorial.
  2. Let's go to the palette Layers.
  3. We turn off the display of all the layers except the background layer, which in this case will be under a black background.
  4. We go to the route Window- Timeline.
  5. This window is a simple sequencer that allows us to sequence the images of the layers of which our file is composed, and thus give it a feeling of movement and dynamism to our banner. We are going to sequence our banner.
  6. We started as we already said at point 3, with the visualization of all the layers turned off except the background layer.
  7. Already in the window of the Timeline tool, we go to the first box in the sequence. It's the only one out there right now and will have a 1 marked in the upper left corner. That is the image with which our sequence begins.
  8. In the lower right corner will have a number, which designates the amount of time this box will be visible in our sequence. You will now have 1 second marked. We click on the little arrow next to it and from the menu that comes out, we choose 0 seconds.
  9. At the bottom of the Timeline tool dialog box, there is a player and some more options. There is one that is a little square with a bent corner. Right next to a trash can. That tool is Duplicate selected frame. We right click on it to duplicate frame number 1.
  10. Now we go to Layers window and we activate the display of the Milton and Sandwich layers.
  11. We go to frame number 2 and in the time menu we choose option 1second.
  12. We return to the option Duplicate frame and we duplicate square number 2 to have number 3.
  13. From this box number 3 we go to the Layers window and activate the display of the text layer whose content falls inside the sandwich.
  14. We return to the Timeline window and in frame 3 we change the duration time to 2 seconds.
  15. We duplicate the last frame again to obtain the number 4.
  16. We go to Layers window again and activate one of the remaining text layers.
  17. Back in the Timeline window we change the duration to 1 second.
  18. We doubled for the last time. Issue 5.
  19. We head back to the Layers window and we activate the last text layer.
  20. We change the duration to 5 seconds.
  21. Now we give play in the player or the space bar.
  22. Once happy with the result, we export from File-Save for Web.
  23. We keep our file in GIF and making sure that we export from the first box of the sequence.
  24. Ready to use your banner in GIF.
