  • Here is an easy way of pulling frames from a video or combining images to create an animated video, motion capture, claymation, Lego video and others.
    In this video, I will show you both skills. First, you're going to learn how to pull individual images from a video. Next, you're going to learn how to combine a series of images to create an animation. I will then tell you possible uses for both skills.
    Let me know if there's something specific you want to learn about Animating in Shotcut in the comments and I'll make a tutorial video. Hopefully, I can help you learn Shotcut.
    I hope this tip video inspires you to go play around on Shotcut and make awesome animated videos!

    Thank you so much for teaching me how to do this, and for telling me about Shotcut. I've been using Openshot and it works, but I think I like this better.
    You wanted to know other uses for this? I wanted footage from a river where I live during sunrise. So I went onto a bridge, and lowered down my GoPro with an extremely long piece of rope. The only problem is that with the wind, and the natural twist in the row, it made my GoPro spin extention fast. So I used the method you taught here, and extracted only the frames that were pointing the direction that I wanted, and put them back together.

    First of all, many thanks for taking the time to make those very instructional videos, I've learnt a lot with them. Congratulations for a great job.
    As an example of when to use single frames I had digitised some family 8mm videos from the 70's and in one of them there were some very dark scenes of a wedding inside a church, some people were taking flash photos that were recorded so I saved the image of the lit frame and repeated it for half a second so we could see them instead of a one frame flash.

Everything was done in Full HD (1920/1080) but after the tool generated the video from the single picture files, the quality was bad. Loading the Pics into Shotcut solved that perfectly. After the Export I got now a great quality and the video is even over 20% smaller than the one from the tool! Thanks again, Klaus

    Hey Ben; new subscriber, and am learning lots from your tutorials, thank you so much. Question: Is there a way to automate frame transitions?? Case in point, I am recording time lapse jpg's of seasonal changes in my back yard wilderness. I did it last year, and the frame rate was good, but choppy and disorienting. The cams are set up taking a pic every 15 minutes during daylight hours, and will run for about 6 or 7 months. Watching last years, I learned a LOT about lighting differences between frames and all, but I also wanted to try a smooth transition between all frames, and as you can imagine, there are a ton of them, so doing them individually would not be the best use of time. In fact, I may not live long enough to do one video that way! Is there a way to select a group of pics (like a thousand or so at a time), and automate transitions between them for playback?

    • @BenEspanto
      @BenEspanto  Год назад

      In this same tutorial starting at about here: ruclips.net/video/qDZjqs3e2_U/видео.html it shows you how to load back individual images to make an animation. When you get to the "properties" section, there is a "duration" box that that you can shorten so that images play a little quicker. This should help you smoothen it a bit. I also have another tutorial utilizing the slideshow functionality that might work if the first technique doesn't: ruclips.net/video/uHQQYdeYr4w/видео.html

There are tons of other short videos on RUclips under 2-3 mins, but they don't match the way Ben explains. Great job Ben !!
