Setting Up a Repeat Pattern Using Procreate for easy use in Illustrator

 

Just for you! I am sharing my process for sketching out a repeat pattern in Procreate, so that it can be easily transferred to Adobe Illustrator. After watching this video, should should feel confident in setting up the procreate file, organizing the layout, and exporting the necessary image to vectorize.

Tools and programs used/mentioned in this video:

  • Procreate, one time purchase through the app store

  • Adobe Illustrator CC, monthly subscription

  • iPad Mini 5

  • Apple Pencil, 1st generation

This process can work with most Apple tablets/digital pencils as long as you have access to Procreate through the app store.

Do you have questions on any of the content, tools, or programs? No problem! Feel free to send me a message by clicking here!
