Animation in Photoshop is a process of creating multiple images or frames and then combining them to create the illusion of movement. You can create animations from scratch, or you can use existing images and turn them into an animation.
Photoshop provides a number of different ways to create animations, including frame-by-frame animation, layer animation, and tweened animation.
To open an animation in Photoshop, first open the Photoshop application. Then, go to File > Open. In the Open dialog box that appears, select the image file that you want to open. If you want to open an animation that is saved as a .gif file, select All Files (*.
*) from the drop-down menu next to Files of Type. Once you have selected the file, click Open. The image will now appear in the Photoshop workspace.
Now that the image is open in Photoshop, you can begin creating your animation. If you are starting from scratch, you will need to create each frame of the animation individually. To do this, go to Window > Animation. This will open the Animation panel.
In the Animation panel, click on the Create New Frame button. A new frame will appear in the workspace. You can now add content to this frame using the various tools and options available in Photoshop.
Once you have created all of the frames for your animation, you need to combine them into a single file. To do this, go to File > Save As. In the Save As dialog box that appears, select .gif from the drop-down menu next to Save As Type.
This will save your animation as a .gif file which can be played on most web browsers. Finally, click Save. Your animated .gif file will now be saved and ready to be used.
Conclusion:
To sum it all up, opening an animation in Photoshop requires these simple steps: first open Photoshop application; go to File > Open; select image file; click Open; go to Window > Animation; click on Create New Frame; add content; go to File > Save As; select .gif from drop-down menu next to Save As Type; click Save.
