Constructing Animations



 

After all the images were editted, it was time to compile them with Blaze Media Pro's video compiling software. All the Photoshop images has to be converted into BMP (bitmapped) format images to be compatable with the video software. This could be done by simply saving the photoshop files as BMP copies.

When opening the video constructor, it will give the choice to choose the type of video format: AVI, MPEG, or WMV. FPS (frames per second) is also an option with the video constructor which allows faster frame transitions which may result in smoother and/or faster animation play time if the frames are set closer. Upon selecting your choice, the second step is to add all the images into a sequenced list of how the video will be played. There is also a list for audio files if sound within the animation. When this is finished, and all the image files are in order, hit "file", "save video as...", and save the animation to the desktop. The construction of the animation is now finished.
