Converting...

[ice_ash]

Hi all,

I'm trying to create some small animations from a .mov file supplied to us. The customer just wants a few scenes taken from it (door opening for 'Come on in' that sort of thing)

What is the best way of doing this? converting the .mov to jpgs and creating small movies...? Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks
Ash

You can do it with Flix, a program tha converts video footage to swf on the fly. (www.wildform.com)
Or use a program like QuickTime Pro to export a sequence of jog's out of your movie.
Most video editing programs can do this.

You could import the .mov, then File > Export Movie > Bitmap Sequence.
Then import only the images you need.

Thanks guys, I'll give it a shot..

The .mov file is actually huge it shows all around one of their buildings and has all sorts of advertsing speaches etc so really I need to capture just certain parts of it otherwise I can see me ending up with 1000's of Meg of Bmps to sift through!

Thanks again,
Ash.
