How to use Doodly preset scenes
When we talk about scenes, we think of the two areas of Doodly The first can be found on the timeline just above the music track. Any blank canvas added to the Timeline is called a "scene". The following information is available in the resources panel. The first card is labeled "scenes". Here you can find all the preset scenes.
As we all know, we can import our own resources and create scenes from scratch. While this is something we all love to do, preset scenes provide such convenience for Doodly users. With presets, everything is already set. From the back wall, small props to large accessories and characters with various gestures. Everything has its own ways of drawing, so each Trump is not just written diagonally during the game.
We'd love to learn more about our preset scenes and this blog will contain everything.
Default settings
Let's start by moving to the power panel. The first tab has our preset scene.
In the scenes tab, you can see various scenes with settings such as living spaces, offices, schools, medical facilities, cafes, beaches, landscapes, industrial sites, city streets, Transport and more.
Below we have summarized some of these presets:
These are just a few examples of the many presets available in Doodly.
Adding a preset scene
So how do you use preset scenes in Doodly We drag one of the presets into an empty scene. Now you always want to put a scene model in an empty scene. Otherwise, it will ask you if you want to replace the content of the current scene.
You will notice that the hand draws each object. Under certain circumstances, it is normal. In other cases, you can make some changes and save a short script for that scene. With the scene selected, the drawing takes about 45 seconds, which is too long to draw everything. Of course, if you have something to say and it makes sense for it to last that long, that's fine. If not, we must reduce the period of withdrawal of assets.
Updating the preset scene
To reduce the extraction time, we need to change the specified duration of each resource.
On the right side of the screen, in the layers section, you will see all the resources of the scene with delay and duration. The default duration of each element is three seconds. This means that, whether it's large and complex props like walls or something as small as a small umbrella in our scene, it will take three seconds to complete the picture.
In our example, we must not let the hand paint everything in a row. However, we need to reduce the time it takes to draw objects.
To begin with, we painted the background wall first, so we keep the drawing time to zero. In addition, we need to identify all the resources that do not need to be drawn and reduce the time of drawing them to zero. Let's say our film is for a transport company, and banks are bought. Now they are delivered and placed in the living room. Instead of drawing everything in one line, we save everything pre-drawn and simply draw two cans by hand.
In addition to making the entire duration zero, we also dragged two cans to the end of our Layer menu so that they can be drawn at the end.
Let's see what our presentation looks like now:
So we see that after the first scene immediately begins the second scene with all the previously made props except the two banks.
If you have a voiceover right now or need some time before opening the jars, you can set a delay for the first jar. It gives you time to make a speech or make that "dramatic discovery" in the movie.
Setting a preset scene
The best thing about our preset scenes is that every object in our scene is mobile. You can flip and drag in any direction in the scene. You can also remove and replace props and characters.
Let's see what else you can do with our presets. Let's add another scene.
So we have an elderly woman who does her grocery shopping at the supermarket and will pay for her groceries. Perhaps this scene is exactly what we want, so this time we will not change all the maturation times. Let's use some of these resources in another scene.
Instead of trying to find a character in the character list or finding all the props, you can selectively copy and paste them into a new scene. You can do this by holding down the CTRL key on the tastier Copy and paste the selected items into a new blank scene.
Once you move to a new scene, you can increase its size. Now you can see an elderly woman behind the shelves, it seems that she can not decide what to buy.
We turn the symbol and add text to it. Now the Old Lady looks around the shelves, surprised by so many products to choose from.
We're transferring the new scene we did to the one where it's at the box office. So we want to push him forward. Now the scene will show an elderly lady deciding what to buy and eventually checking her behind the counter.
Finally, if you want to highlight a character (like the old lady in our scene), you can apply opacity to the rest of the resources around her. This will put your character in an awkward position. You can add text or apply the Pan and Zoom effect to the scene for further enhancement.
Conclusion…
Preset scenes are easy to use. It is flexible and elegant. This makes creating wacky videos easy and fun. We hope you enjoyed our blog today. Do you have a favorite preset scene? Well, if you haven't already tried it, try using it in one of your projects and tell us what you think. Share your creations with us on our Facebook page. See you next time. 🙂
