# Drawing in the Drawing or Camera View

When you first start drawing your characters and props, you should work in the Drawing View using the Drawing tools.

After everything is drawn, you can move to the Sceneplanning view windows to lay out and animate your characters in 3D space.

Sometimes drawings might require retouching or editing after you set up your animations in the Sceneplanning views. Then, you can use the drawing tools to retouch or create new drawings in the Camera View window.

Because you can see all of the drawings in a frame in their relative positions in the 3D sceneplanning space, “drawing in sceneplanning” will help you retouch and create drawings more easily and accurately.

You can use onion skin, display the drawing grid and rotate the Camera View just like you can the Drawing View.
