Hi this is Cable on behalf of Expert Village. Let's say we've captured all of the frames
that we want to. All our artwork has been captured on to our computer as individual
still Images. So now in Framethief the same principal is true with many other programs,
like other frame grabber programs like iStop motion, After Effects, Final Cut, so after
you get all the Images captured you need to export those still frames as a single fluid
animation that's more easily handled and viewed. Ok, so in Framethief, you want to go to File,
Export, and export that animation that you just made to a Quicktime movie. So, take a
few seconds to go over your settings and make sure it's the right resolution and size that
you want to. Usually 720 by 480 is full screen resolution, so if you wanted to watch this
on TV it'd be just fine. Now, you can always edit your settings. And let's do that here
to make sure it plays back as smooth as we can. Let's make sure that when we export our
movie it plays smoothly. So, if anywhere you see frames per second and it's other than
thirty just go ahead and try to change it to thirty it'll play smoother. Right now this
is set on fifteen. Twenty-nine point nine seven is actually the true broadcast frame
rate. Now, when you export be sure that you know where you're saving your exported movie
too. I would just put it on the desktop. Give it a name, be default it's called ball.mov.
Press enter and you can see that it's compressing the frame one by one to make a finished QuickTime.
So, after Framethief has exported the image sequence we have a finished QuickTime and
it should look something like this. And now it's in a format that's more easily handled
and it is watchable. And it takes up less space in your office.
