Creating a Watch Face - Chapter 5
Hi there!
This is the chapter 5 for the watch face making series.
In this video, you can see me developing a watch face based on the Pip Boy device, featuring on the Fallout computer game series by Bethesda.
No planning of any sort was made before I recorded this video, so watch it (or not) with a grain of salt 🤣
You can also see how I process an animated GIF to fit my needs, by cropping, scaling and making the background transparent, easily doing what would take ages, even on dedicated softwares.
Chapters:
0:07 - Introduction
1:48 - Starting the watch face
5:41 - Adding the Pip Boy animation
12:44 - Adding the Hours and Minutes
24:03 - Adding a fake menu on the top
28:54 - Adding the Heart Rate, Steps and Calories widgets
47:44 - Adding the Vault-Tec logo
53:40 - Adding the Battery widget
59:13 - Rearranging the widgets
1:03:57 - Finishing the Battery widget
1:07:54 - Finishing touches
1:10:06 - Building a simple Always-on-Display
1:14:39 - Final considerations
For reasons unknown, during the video, the image on the watch remains static while I make changes.This is temporary and soon resumes after a few seconds, so please be patient.
No other software was used to create this watch face, which proves you only need Facemaker to accomplish any watch face you want, easily and faster than with any other software.
I challenge you to build something like, without any preparation!
