You might ask what the significance is of playing an animation that is 4 frames. I include a project that you can experiment with. Basically this is a frame flipping player. That means it plays an animation of 4 frames in a loop. Each of the 4 frames is a image that is made up of different blocks. The frames are png's but the project is a Gimp xcf file in several layers. This just means you can alter the image in Gimp or photoshop then output the altered image in png format. So in the end you should have a animation of 4 frames. The small blocks that make up the image are cut from the initial image plate. Once an image plate is completed, you should not add any detail to it. the 4 frames of animation are made up of moving the blocks no more than 8 pixels in any direction. Odd numbers are ok. So for example. If you have a square in the middle of a blank page, you can move the pixel left 8 and up 8 pixels. This in turn makes up the animation. Each of the blocks needs to be moved independently. Just see the example project to get an idea of how it works. Other than that, the only note to make is that the initial plate image is done using lineart that works with magnification steps. In another Codebank upload, there is a Linepaint tool. This is what is used to compose an image along with the Gimp to fill in different levels of detail. The result is a imaging template, that can be used to coreograph a scene in a motion picture or animation. The actual process behind it is simple in steps, but extremely complicated in detail. So I don't have the time to make that kind of explanation here. However, if you study Machine Learning or Advanced Imaging, you might have an idea as to how it fits together. There are 2 files in this upload. A Visual Studio 2018 project (with exe's removed) and a image_data zip file with this particular project.
A very important :eek: WARNING :eek: Photosensitive Seizure WARNING :eek:
Because at the highest speed and otherwise there is a stroboscopic effect. Please keep this in mind for safety reasons.
Also, it is important to note that if you wear glasses, then not wearing glasses, exposes the plate in a photograph like resolution. If you have good vision, then moving further back from the monitor will allow you to see the same effect. Most importantly, for :eek: eye safety :eek: you should know your limits before running the software.
Other than that, it's a simple tool to aid in scene compositions.
There is a small help file to allow you to run the example. Other than that, it's up to you to explore the software to see if it suits your needs.
NOTE: If you do machine learning studies, you can train a NN to scan a movie to see if it can extract a logic template from it and compare the same template to another movie or animation for linking.
