The biggest difference between EX and PRO version is that while PRO has an animation limit of 24 frames maximum, EX can be used for longer projects!

TIPS!:
Double click on the paper layer to change its color!

The canvas size can easily be changed anytime to make your project larger or smaller : (edit → change canvas size)

There are lots of free brushes online, including photoshop brushes which are fully compatible with CSP!

I like using the opacity trick with keyframes to transition from a blurred image to a focused one for background zoomins or outs! (Stacking them on top of each other and having one go down to 0% opacity so the second one appears!)

There are tons of tools to explore and use which I didn’t have time to explain such as 3D assets, rulers/grids, tonal corrections and much more!
