hi! if you don’t mind can you share your sharpening settings? your gifs are so beautiful and sharp 😍

Of course! Thank you so much! Not many people ask me how to do this.

For starters, to anyone who is curious in gifmaking, this is what sharpening can do for your gifs

The settings I use I found out from many gif tutorials on this site (thank you to my fellow gifmakers) and here is a screenshot of what I use

May I ask for a tutorial if it is not going to cause you too much trouble on the first gif of this amazing set of yours? <3 I just couldn’t find a tutorial on making multiple gifs in one 💕💌

Hey friend! Of course it's no trouble. So if I understand correctly you're asking about the layout and having all four scenes in one gif?

For reference, the gif in question:

What I'm going to describe applies to the other three similar gifs in the set as well just a different layout.

The most important tool we'll be using is Clipping Mask - it will enable us to essentially size our scenes and all the adjustment layers. First, we need the layout itself. My inspiration/template for this gif was this wonderful set, so I basically just created rectangles the same sizes as the gifs on there. Once I do that, I have my base:

This is what hiding under that very gif above. Once you know what scenes you'd like to use, you place the layers(/in my case Smart Object) on top and right click -> Create Clipping Mask. What you'll notice is that your scene and any and all layers within the clipping only go as far as your base, the rectangle does. This saves you from having to cut around the edges manually of having to Layer Mask everything.

In the Layers tab, we now look like this:

This works when you're not working on timeline like I am, too, in which case if you don't have a Smart Objects all the frames are just clipped to the base.

You make sure that all your gifs are the same length/adjust your work area and that is it, really. Once you clipped all the scenes you get a gif:

I hope that answers your question, please let me know if there's anything else I should go in-depth with. After this, it's colouring and adding text as desired. This adjustment-less gif really shows how badly lit season 1 is compared to season 1 lol.

It looks kinda weird but I wanted to demonstrate what a huge difference even a huge adjustment layers do (and colouring was a big part of this set):

My Muse Gifs #3

Doing this for Eobard Thawne/Matt Letscher/Tom Cavanagh

🌟- One of my favorite icons

🚫- One of my least favorite icons

This one because Eobards not really in it.

🐑- One of my muse being cute

🐉- One of my muse being beautiful/handsome

Just ONE?! This is going to be Difficult...

🎩- One of my muse being silly

Not intentionally but this was funny.

“See you can even clap again.”

⛈- One of my muse being sad

Might have to use a none canon Gif for this one. He’s rarely sad unless you count the serious or angry kind of sadness. 

Closest I could get ^

🌶- One of my muse being angry

🥈- An icon from a random AU/verse

I do have AU’s with Eo and My OC. One where Matt letscher’s Eo is Married to his S/O and lives a more human life. 

Another where Tom Cavanagh’s Eo is in a relationship with Killer Frost.

🎲- An icon I use frequently

I try not to double up on Gifs. But I suppose this one.

🛵- An icon I don’t use very much 🚜- An icon I haven’t used at all 🛠- An icon I haven’t finished editing yet 🏦- An icon that was given to me 📸- A thumbnail I used/have used

🎞- A thumbnail I have not used

💸- A random icon you click on without looking!
