Speed painting of my Robert De Niro sketch created in Procreate. Inspired by my new book purchase, “The Art of Bob Peak” I wanted to match his sketching style and colour palette.

The subtitles were made using CaptionistaApp, an app @marcpalmerdev and I have been working on that allows you to quickly add subtitles to videos in iOS.

The original video file, exported from Procreate was in a portrait format, which meant Twitter and Instagram would crop the top and bottom, cutting off the subtitles. So I needed to make it square to fit social feeds better. This can all be done on the iPhone or iPad using free apps, see here for a breakdown of how I do it.

Adding subtitles was very easy. I just typed in my painting process in the text editor and then, in the timing editor I tapped the word to start a new subtitle at the correct time in the video.
