Shading In adobe animate like Sashley does

Question

Hello! I am King, I'm still kind of new to adobe Animate.

My problem is I can't shade no matter how much I try, I really love sashleys shading but I dont know what they does in adobe animate to do it.

In their "How I animate" Video at 3:58 while they are shading their animation they have seem to gone in the folder some how, but it also shows the back hair... There was also layer one already in the animation as a camera, so what did They do to be able to get the hair to show up and also be able to use the bucket tool on a diffrent layer?
If anyone can find out their technique I would love to know, please and thank you.

(Basis if anyone know's their shading technuqie in this video I would love to know.)

Sincerly ~ King

Hello, he's most likely using the pencil tool to isolate parts of the drawing and adding different color shades. Most animators use this method for being one of the fastest: https://youtu.be/mb_POcJZ30A

Brush modes is another alternative: https://youtu.be/iY78Fl633Zo

At 3:58 he's double clicking the hair symbol to edit its contents, you can put drawings inside them. Think of symbols as boxes or containers.

Here's a quick introduction to symbols and how to use them: https://youtu.be/e0v9RC6-hWw
