Special Effects

You can create FX adjusted still frames and/or movies from the frames using a variety of effects.

When an effect is selected the parameters controls change to match the properties of the effect and transformed frame preview reflects the property settings.

When saving frames to a file the name you select will be used as the "base" name. For example, if you select "MyTestFrame1.jpg" as your output file name the actual names used will be:

"MyTestFrame1 Original.jpg"

"MyTestFrame1 Transformed.jpg"

When saving a range as an AVI file the frames are first saved as still images and the movie is created using the Movies from still images tool.

The interface which permits the range selection will calculate the frame count and duration of the animation. The image name that you enter is used as a base with the frame number appended.
