In future tutorials here at OpenVisualFX, you’ll see me using one of them all the time. I thought it’d be useful to post little overview videos of what are, in my opinion, the top three. ![]() When I was deciding on one, it was hard finding any video tutorials or reviews on them, so I had to just download them all and try them out. You can download a bunch of frame sequences from my Free Stuff page if you don’t have any.īeing able to view these frame sequences without opening up a compositing or editing program every time is important, and it’s something you’re going to be doing a lot, so naturally, a few programs have turned up to make viewing them easy and fast. For example, if you have a 300 frame visual effects shot, that folder would contain 300 images, each one numbered sequentially. So every shot has it’s own folder of frames. The folder contains all the frames that make up the shot. In case you don’t know what frame sequences are, it means that every frame of a visual effects shot (or a video clip) is saved into a folder as an individual image file. Independent projects can have a variety of different formats for delivery, but even then, it’s recommended that you work from frame sequences and just create the delivery movie from the final frame sequence at the end. Compressed movies are for reviewing, but our main means of delivery on feature films are frame sequences. EXRs, DPXs, PNGs, TIFs, even TGAs and JPGs. ![]() That’s what we expect to get from the client, and it’s what we give back to them. Visual effects artists work in frames sequences.
