ur change up/cheers set is so good!!!!!!! pls share ur secrets on how u did the fade from one mv to the other im literally obsessed w ur talent

ask and ye shall receive!! another cc taught me this way back so I’m more than happy to pass the info along! I’m gonna reply with a tutorial just in case anyone else wants to know how to do the fade and isn’t too familiar with making gifs or doing edits to them!

I’ll preface the entire thing real quick with the most important thing for anyone to keep in mind when doing this is the amount of colors. I started the change/up cheers set with change up clips that had a lot of different colors and since gifs can only contain 256 colors it exceeded that and was very noisy and grainy as a result! (Im sure most if not all gif makers already know the color limit but for anyone starting gif making or unfamiliar with the process that might be reading this, the color limit is with ANY gif not just ones that fade in)

doing the fade in probably looks complicated but it’s super easy! this is all done in photoshop and first thing you want to do is make the two gifs you want to fade into each other. do any sharpening, recoloring, etc and make sure they have the same amount of frames and the same frame delay. the gifs need to be in frames, I don’t know of a way to do this with things in timeline. so here’s two of mine from that set

you’re going to leave the first gif exactly how it is for now, almost all the changes will be made on gif #2. to create the fade you’ll be changing individual frames a little at a time. for the change up/cheers set I used six frames for the fade (but you can always play with how many you want to use for your own creations). you start with the very first frame and put the opacity down very low. you then go to the next frame and lower the opacity on that as well, but not as much. you’ll do this for each frame you want to fade in with the regular 100% opacity frames at the end of that. for this set I went in the order of 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 85%, and 95% opacity. much like how many frames are in the fade the opacity percents aren’t set in stone you can play with it and see what you like best

at this point your frames for gif #2 should look like this

just make sure if you didn’t earlier that both gifs you’re working with are at the same frame delay (this set was at 0.06) because that’s important. next on the right side of the timeline window under the three lines you want to click ‘select all frames’ and then click ‘copy frames’

you’re going to move back to gif #1 now and select the last six frames in this case (in general you want to select however many frames you changed the opacity of because this is where the second gif will layer over the first gif)

while those frames are selected go back to the three lines again and pick ‘paste frames’. when the lil window for that pops up make sure you pick ‘paste over selection’ and hit the check box on ‘link added layers’

you should now see the fade over top of those selected frames and then the 100% opacity frames from gif #2 after. it should look something like this!

you can now change the frame delay overall since it’s all one combined gif at this point and then all you have to do is export it like normal! (easy shortcut is shift+ctrl+alt+s) if you have a watermark how I added mine after was converting it to timeline, adding it there, and then exporting one final time

and that’s it! you have your finished product!

I hope that helps and makes sense!! if any elaboration is needed please dont hesitate to let me know I’m more than happy to explain further as best as I can!! ☺️💝

Ok, I'll bite: please explain the Roller Derby AU shipping chart emojis XD Admittedly it is less convoluted than I feared once I took a close look but I wonder if it's intentional that between Harley and Talia there's both an "uwu" and a throwing hands emoji.

That was intentional as FUCK IM SO GLAD U PICKED UP ON IT LMAO

Okay, so we’ll divide these by colors and the add the emojis and hopefully no one will call me out for a past fandom I was in but that’s just the risk I gotta take

Also note before I start, I use ship names (no spaces btwn names or with a / slash if I’m unsure of the ship name) for romantic/sexual ships. And the ampersand (&) for platonic/other ‘ships’. Bc Ao3 rlly Did Something and we ought to bring that over here with more regularity tbh

Black:

Harley & Talia - uwu vs ผ(•̀_•́ผ) 

so idk if Harley and Talia have rlly had like, SIGNIFICANT interactions, they didn’t have a lot of direct stuff even in the GCS issues (bc obvsly Selina & Talias whole thing was center stage for that one) BUT. Harley gets on ppls nerves!!! She’s only got like! Two settings and normally the more playful one is out and I can’t imagine that ever being anything BUT annoying as fuck to Talia! And ofc Harley LOVES fucking with ppl so it’s just gonna be a whole continuous cycle of her Ramping Up Shenanigans while Talia becomes the human embodiment of the *arthur clenching fist* meme. Add onto the fact that again, Talias the pivot and Harleys the Jammer and you’ve got a RECIPE FOR DISASTER.

IvyZee - (ง •̀_•́)ง vs ผ(•̀_•́ผ)

I talked awhile ago abt my Social Media Rivals AU and tbh...... there’s not a whole lot there that CANT ALSO crossover to here so!!! I just rlly enjoy the idea of Ivy and Zee fuckin HATING each other and it constantly being a “oh my god just Kiss or Kill each other already” I know some ppl don’t like those ships but LISTEN. Listen if we play the inherent sexual tension of enemies to rivals to begrudging allies to 👀👀👀 buddies right I THINK I can make this work.

Red:

HarlIvy - ❤️

OBVIOUS. I should not HAVE to explain this one at all aksjak (other than the general reminder that I’m gonna try hard as hell to make it slow burn bc 🔥 I need it)

Teal

Zeelina - 🙃

y’all K N O W I’ve got COMPLEX feelings abt them. So this is rlly no different. This is gonna be that On/Off again thing, they’re hot n cold all the time, things get messy and they’ll have Conflicts but ultimately will pull together bc 🙃 well.... there always WILL be that history+chemistry There, whether they admit to it or not

Navy

Talina/DemonCat - 😈

I just think it would be VERY NEAT if they started something together!!! And just 100% organically just mutually dated!! And maybe only find out way later that they both dated Famed College Drop-Out Bruce Wayne lmao anyways. Theyre both hot and I love them and think they should date so!

Talia/Zee - 💅

see above, but also Make It Even More Fashion and there’s Slightly More Distrust At First (bc yeah they got that Mutual Attraction. But also Zee Heard things from B, and Talia’s not so Sure abt where Zee stands in general so!!)

(Side note, yes I also want Talia/Selina/Zee eventually but LISTEN. It’s not gonna happen all at once from the go!!! We gotta try a couple Configurations First!!)

Yellow

Harley & Selina - 🫂 

theyre friends thru and thru and I love that for them and just want good things for them both in that friendship!!! Idk!!! I’m sure there’s probably SOME shippers for them out there but!!! I just love their friendship so much so!!! Friends! They shall be!

Green

CatIvy - 👀

THESE TWO ON THE OTHER HAND THO. okay listen LISTEN. Ivy and Selina’s Arkham City cutscenes live RENT FREE IN MY BRAIN. Theyve DEF slept together at least once or twice! I will accept nothing less! (The green is for mostly staying friends tho so onto these next ones)

Talia/Ivy - 🤝

okay so in canon, technically It’s Like Ivy 🤝 Talia: technically eco-terrorists who for all intents and purposes would be Heroes if their Ways Of Saving The Planet werent Kinda Skewed. So we’re carrying that over to here where Talia is an anthropology major and Ivy’s a botany major BUT they’re both getting minors in poli sci and take some of the same classes and 🤝 bond there before Ivy invites Talia to join the derby team that Harleys trying to form. And maybe they sleep together once or twice or a few times as friends with bennies idk

Harley/Zee - 🤡

listen I loved Harley’s Little Black Book and ESP that one halloween story that Dini wrote for them and basically I think it would fuckin Hilarious if they slept together at least once and then never brought it up again akdjsk so I’m gonna like. Imply it One Time and Never Bring It Up Again and ppl are just gonna have to draw their own conclusions!
