How to make timelapse / speedpaint?
I'd like to make some timelapses of my artwork in PS, like Kienan is doing it! Does anyone know how it works? Does it eat up more power from my computer? I do not want to use a screen recorder...




Why would you not want to use a screen recorder? If you're worried about people seeing what you have in your taskbar, Photoshop has a Full Screen Mode, which will only show the canvas. Should be accessible in View -> Screen Mode -> Full Screen Mode
If you really don't want to use a screen recorder, you could take screenshots every once in a while and make a progress gif/slideshow. Way less interesting than a speedpaint though imo, and you don't really upload progress screenshots to youtube.
How do you expect to make a timelapse without using a screen recorder? That's exactly how you would make a timelapse...
I'm not sure exactly what Kienan uses, but a free option is to download OBS (open broadcast software) and instead of using it to stream to Twitch or something, you can use it to only record. I think you can even set it up to record only a certain window or area, if you're just worried about recording your entire screen.
