Animated pictures look very original and attract more attention than ordinary ones. Therefore, there have always been many who wanted to learn this trick: insert animation into a picture using graphic editors.
It is necessary
- - Adobe Photoshop program
- - image file without animation
- - file with animation
Instructions
Step 1
Open Adobe Photoshop on your computer. Click on File / Import / Frames to Video Layers. Next, select the animation that you want to place on your picture or photo (write down or copy the name of the file of this picture or photo in advance), and in the window that appears, enter or paste the name of this file in the free line at the bottom of the window. By the way, using the import function in Photoshop, the user can even open a video file.
Step 2
Please note that the Adobe Photoshop program must separate the animation into layers and frames. Select the "Magic Eraser" on the toolbar (the icon of this tool looks like an eraser with an asterisk) and remove the background on each layer and frame with just one click. To do this, click the tool in the area of the working window on the background where the picture is shown. In the event that the picture is very small and has a lot of small details, enlarge it using the Ctrl ++ key combination in order to better see what has been removed from the image elements and what has remained untouched.
Step 3
Open the image you want to add an animation effect to. Go to animation again and, holding down the left Shift key on the keyboard, select all the layers. Then drag all the animation layers onto your image.
Step 4
After that, in the animation window, call the context menu by clicking the right mouse button and select the function "Create frames from layers". As a result of this action, all layers should be split into frames. The very first frame with the picture is no longer needed, so you can safely delete it.
Step 5
Next, load your picture for each frame. To do this, turn on the layer, frame, picture in turn. It goes without saying that each layer and frame must match each other.
Step 6
Finally, set the time (0.16 seconds) and turn on the animation. Then check the final result.
