Hi Guys! For this week's Challenge, I tried to animate Living Lava using Photoshop and DaVinci Resolve.
Living Lava is a fire Element Monster that is very effective to use as a Tank because of its shield Ability. It has a strong Melee Attack power and a Good Defense

Programs used
Photoshop - For trimming the image
DaVinci Resolve for Animation
Steps
The first step is to download the Living Lava image in Splinterlands Website
Step 2 is top open the image in Adobe Photoshop
Step 3 is to separate the Living Lava's Parts like head, legs, arms,etc and save them in individual PNG files with transparent background.
I added a ground and some drips so mty total file is 12
Step 4 Open DaVanci Resolve and Drop the Files into the Timeline
Step 5 edit all images in Fusion and add a dsiplpace node and a fast node to make it look like its moving
Step 6 For every 20 frames, starting from frame 1. make a keyframe by changing the values of the fastnoise in the inspector. We need to do this in order to animate the image. Do this for all images
Step 7- in the edit tab, adjust the size of each image and give them body movements per 20 frame. The one I did in the fusion tab is to make it look like it is liquid. This time we want to make the head bob, arms move and lava to drip.
Step 8 - after you are done key framing movements, select all images and make a compound clip
so that it will compile into one image
Step 9 - Duplicate the compound clip, change the speed of the duplicate into reverse speed.
Step 10 - Select both clips and make a compound clip again
Step 11 - Duplicate the compound Clip
Step 12 - Add Proto Effect to the Original Clip to give it a flame effect
Step 13 - Add a Noise Background and resize it to fit the frame
Step 14 - change the color of the noise in the inspector tab
Step 15 - Duplicate the ground image
Step 16 - Save as MP4 File
