Tween text, publish as image sequence

  I'm trying to tween one font into another, which I am able to do by breaking apart the text into objects and using a simple shape tween.  The preview and exported movies look as they should, but I would like to be able to export the frames of the animation as jpegs, targas, or pngs so that I can import this image sequence into photoshop as layers.
  Idealy it would be great to be able to take the .fla file itself and open it up in photoshop as a layered document, yet I don't see how this is possible either.  Does anybody know how I can automate the process of exporting an image sequence without having to go frame by frame and exporting bitmaps individually?
thanks

jdehann,
  Thank you, that is exactly the export option that I was looking for.  I knew it was in there somewhere, just never had reason to look before now.  Thanks for your help.

  • Export image sequence from AS flash file

    Hello:
    I am new to flash I am using flash professional 8 and
    publishing at version 6 (although I can publish to any version for
    this issue). I am using ActionScript 2.0 and am animating objects
    using code instead of tweens. I need to export the animation out as
    separate frames. I need the image sequence from the flash to use in
    other applications and other uses. If anyone has any idea on how to
    do this I'd appreciate knowing. I'd prefer to not have to buy more
    software of course but if that is the case and it is the best way
    let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    The latest Flash CC 2014 release has an export to SVG option, which exports the current frame as SVG. There is no direct way to export the entire animation as SVG sequence though.
    You can find more details @ Flash Professional Help | New features summary

  • Exporting image sequence out of CS4

    How can I export say, all of the FRAMES of my sequence out of Premiere? Is there a way to do this?

    Export a series of still images 
    Movies are the type of output most useful for easy previewing. However, a sequence of still images from a composition can be used for movie making and desktop presentations. You can use a sequence of stills in the following ways:
    Transfer frames to film using a film recorder.
    Create still images for high-end video systems.
    Create still images and use them in a presentation.
    Select images for publishing or creating storyboards.
    Export source images for a graphics program in which the images can be edited or retouched and imported back into Premiere Pro as footage items.
    Export a series of still images
    You can export a clip or sequence as a sequence of still images, with each frame saved as a separate still-image file. Export a sequence of stills for animation and three-dimensional applications that do not import video file formats. For example, you could export a series of still images from Adobe Premiere Pro, import them into Adobe Illustrator to use its LiveTrace feature, and then bring the altered sequence back into Adobe Premiere Pro for further editing. When you export a still‑image sequence, Adobe Media Encoder numbers the still-image files automatically.
    Choose File > Export > Media.
    In the Export Settings dialog box, from the Format menu, choose a still‑image sequence format (Windows Bitmap, GIF, Targa, or TIFF).If you choose a movie format or Animated GIF, all the frames are exported into one file.
    Choose the range to export from the timeline under the viewing area.
    Click Video, and specify options.
    Click OK.Adobe Media Encoder opens with the job in the queue.
    You can change the location into which you export all of the still‑image files from the default. Click the hot text in the Output File column and type a new location.It’s best to specify an empty folder so that the sequence of still-image files don’t become mixed with other files.
    Click Start Queue.

  • Imported image sequence in PP CC 2014 causes animated layers to flicker

    I have a project which has a primary layer formed of imported JPGs that are in sequence. These are shots from a time lapse and are sequentially named and imported without issue into Premier Pro. I then have a secondary layer with a simple After Effects composition that comprises a slow fade and animation of some title text. The problem I have is that during playback in PP (or once rendered) the animation of the text in the AA layer flickers. Watching it frame by frame in the preview window it is slowly fading in but each alternate frame it's opacity seems to go back one frame before advancing.
    Now I can completely fix this by exporting the image sequence clip in my bin to a video file. If I then replace the image sequence with a video made using exactly the same images it works fine and the animation is perfectly smooth. My question is why does PP not treat the imported image sequence the same as a video with its interaction with other layers?

    Hi there.
    Looking at the footage, you are exporting at 24P. There are books written on 24P and how to shoot (or edit) for it. What I see as a possible mistake.
    You are moving the photo too fast across the screen. That could be the same as panning too fast in 24P. Same result. The video clips are moving much slower and don't show the staggering.
    Give it a try.

  • Flash audio out of sync even as image sequence in Premeire Pro

    I'm using Flash CS4 to animate hi-def music videos. It seems that I can't keep the audio to stay in sync for anything over 2 or 3 minutes.
    - I'm working a stage at 1280x720 and 30 fps
    - audio is streamed on a separate layer
    - mp3 publish settings are: stereo 128kbs
    Inside the FLA file everything syncs perfect, but when it's published, everything drifts in the SWF and in everything else I've tried.
    I've tried exporting image sequences and popping the sequences into premiere pro to match up with the original wave, and i've also put the swf file in a premiere pro project as well. Whether a SWF or an image sequence, it always lapses after 2 or 3 minutes.
    I've asked the adobe portal folks and they sent me a link to a "dreamweaver" article...so my regard for their capicity is not high.
    Anyone have any ideas? or am I doomed to never animate anything longer than 2 minutes in Flash?
    The topper of it all is, I've used a friend's REAL OLD Flash MX and have not   had any problems.

    no actually all the animation is smooth and plays fine. but in files longer than 2 or 3 minutes the action starts to happen later and later and later until i'm seeing the animation full seconds after the matching sound. this happens when source wavs are matched to published files inside premeire pro too. it doesn't matter the format...swf / mp4 / flv / mov...any encoding of the video matched to the source wav is the same result as the published swf.
    it's as if there are more frames in the publish than in the FLA. i guess i could compare and contrast by doing some math and creating some traditional x-sheets and completely disregard the reference streaming audio in the FLA...but that would be a ton of work and disregard the convenience the technology is intended to provide. i guess i'll just continue editing together a bunch 1-2 minute publishes until i give adobe even more money in october...boo hiss.
    thanks for your vigilance! i might just be out of luck

  • Exporting animated symbol to image sequence

    Hi guys!
    I'm unable to export an animated symbol to image sequence properly because the symbol does not animate.
    I created the tweens in multiple layers, then cut-pasted all layers to a new symbol. I did this so I could then just do some tween motions on the symbol.
    The tweening is perfect, but when I export the image sequence, the images do not animate the way it does on the Flash player. All I get is an image sequence with the tweened symbol, but the symbol itself does not animate.
    I'd really appreciate if you guys could give me a tip on how to get the symbol to animate when exporting the image sequence.
    Alternatively, is there a way to motion-tween multiple layers simoultaneously? (Layers which are themselves tweened)
    Thank you guys!
    Any additional info, I'll be checking regularly so I can provide as much description as possible to get this to work.

    Ok, I figured it out!
    I changed the symbol type to "Graphic," and I was able to see the animation in the timeline. Easy!
    Now I just exported the movie to png sequence, and bam! Magic!
    If anyone has this problem, don't hesitate to ask me and I'll ellaborate on what I did.
    Thanks!

  • Remove Text/Toggle Between Images w/Tap

    I have a title page for an article comprised of a photograph with text on top of it.  I want the user to be able to tap the screen to remove the text to allow them to view the photograph by itself.
    Is there a way to put the text on a different layer, then make that layer disappear/reappear with a tap (like Mag+)? 
    I've tried a work-arounds using Image Sequence and Slide Shows of two images, one with and one without the text.  By using Slide Show, I can allow the user to tap and "remove" the text by showing them the underlying image without the text, but then they are stuck on that image and unable to toggle back to image with text/title.
    Anybody have any ideas how to do this?
    Many thanks in advance!

    I want to change the Object State each time the user touches the photo.  With a Slideshow if I have it 'Stop at Last Image' the user can't get back to the original image.   If I don't check 'Stop at Last Image' then it automatically goes back to the first image--even if the user wants to stay put.
    Any ideas?
    It's simple.
    Create your 2 steps MSO using the Object State panel.
    When you select the MSO. The Overlay Creator panel will display the Slidshow controls.
    Leave it as is!!!
    Next, draw a rectangle over the MSO, select it and convert it to button (Object > Interactive > Convert to Button).
    In the Buttons panel, set the button action to Go To Next State.
    Now use the preview button at the bottom of the Overlay creator or Folio Builder panels to test the result.
    Each tap (click) will toggle from the currently displayed state to the other, which is, if I'm not mistaken, what you asked for.
    See in this sample file.

  • Image Sequence Layer Issue

    I'm trying to use image sequencing to allow someone to rotate an image. The rotation works, but the image pops up to the top layer in front of my text, though I want it to be in the back.
    Here's an image of it in the back (in proper positioning):
    And when activated (incorrect):

    That’s why it’s called an overlay. You can use transparent PNGs and that should be enough but any text over the actual graphic will still be behind it.

  • Image Sequence, Audio, Edge Animation - it's all there in my app

    My first DPS app went live last night.
    (Yay me.)
    Now look into my eyes; you will like it. Don't resist.
    Why? Well, it's free. And free is good, we all like free. It has fun drawings and interactivity. It makes use of many DPS components including an image sequence that looks like an animation, audio, HTML5 canvas tag, and an Edge Preview animation.
    What's even better is that Adobe has asked me to make the components available in the DPS cookbook. You can have it all and use it in your own DPS apps. So while I get all the files ready for that, download the app from iTunes - so far only iPad - but I will publish for Kindle Fire and Android presently.
    Leave any comments or questions with this thread so we can all benefit.
    It is a Spanish-Language alphabet learning application called Todas la letras.
    http://itunes.apple.com/app/todas-las-letras/id540437129?mt=8
    I have built a site which has some of the HTML code and a description of how I built it
    www.milibrodelasletras.com
    So far, 10 downloads. 2 from Mexico, 1 each from Argentina and Columbia. Gracias, Suramerica!
    And thanks to forum users who helped me along, espcially the Bobs.

    I haven't figured out the refresh rate of the iTunesconnect analytics - so far, just the 14 downloads mentioned above. So I would safely bet that you are the first downloader from Down Under (too clever?). In fact, here at Dan McSweeney Digital Publishing Corporate Headquarters we'd like to name you our Australian ambassador. I'm going to have accounting send you a Speedo, an orange cap, and a Glock. The intent of this app was to get Australia speaking Spanish, bwah hahah, it's working.
    Glad you liked the image overlay "animation." Credit for that idea is due Colin Fleming. And if you are handy at all in After Effects, it's not difficult to export an animation to a jpeg image sequence - AE even sequentially names the files for you. All of this will be detailed when I post the project files. Meanwhile anybody can ask me questions. (Like I'm some kind of mad expert in this, right?)
    Writing a sparkling review of the app on iTunes is, by the way, part of your duties as ambassador.

  • How can i create a .mov file from image sequence with different durations

    how do u create an image sequence with different durations? image one stays for 10 seconds and image two may stay for 30 and so on. each one has a custom duration. can this be done with an apple script or a text file saved as an mov file?

    Hello Omar,
    The example code Programmatic Printing of TestStand Reports - Modular contains a sequence that will convert an XML file to an HTML file given the XML file's path and the path to the stylesheet.  It may need to be altered to fit with the modifications you have already made to the report generation routines, but I think it should definitely get you off on the right foot.  Let me know if you have any questions!

  • Large image sequences in Flash - How to reduce memory usage?

    So I'm trying to publish a looping animation in Flash with a large amount of image sequences in it. (around 3000 frames all told). And I'm having problems with the swf using too much memory when it's played.
    The swf is about 80mb, but the file uses an excess of 2gb of ram when played. I don't know why that would be. A memory leak?
    My understanding is: that Flash will just load all images in a swf into memory unless you dump the memory somehow.Can anyone explain how to do this? Is it possible? I can't seem to find a solution online.
    Thanks

    Thanks for your reply. I think I was being just overly ambitious trying to get this to play in swf form on sub 4gb ram machines. I've resorted to external video.

  • 1.1 - text converted to image

    I've read all the posts regarding problems with publishing, as well as with comments and search features (some of which I have experienced myself).
    But has anyone else but me had all of the text on their web-site changed to images (.png) after re-publishing using 1.1?
    My website text (except titles) is web-friendly... I'm using Arial. And it all worked fine before 1.1.
    I have sent feedback to Apple about this. Just want to know if anyone else has the same problem.
    I can actually publish now (with no more error messages) but:
    -all text is still in .png format
    -comments don't work (I was getting "@post" rather than "add a comment", so I have removed the option)
    -search function obviously doesn't work (since all text is in image format, there is nothing to search through)
    Here is my main site: www.maitaionline.com
    Same problems on my secondary site (jandb.maitaionline.com) where I am also having problems with some photo pages.
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    That's weird. My site was all .png before 1.1 (I'm using web safe Georgia). Now, it's real type and not .png.

  • Animating image sequences

    Hi guys and girls,
    I'm a complete noob to AE and so have very little knowledge of what I need to do.  I'm sure the info is out there, and I've tried going through the help sections but when I do a search all I seem to get is info on adding layers and I don't think that's what I want!
    What I have and need help with is putting several image sequences together, and then adding individual images in between each sequence (if that makes sense).
    I rendered out an animation from Cinema 4D in groups of .tiff image sequences, I did it in groups as I have individual images with text on them that I want add  in between each group.  Each of the 10 groups of image sequences run at 30 fps and has anything from 100 - 250 frames totalling 1925 frames.  The images in the groups are numbered sequentially so if need be I could put all the images into one folder and open them all in one go, I just thought it would be easier for placing the individual images if they were broken up into groups.  The individual images that I need to add in between each group need to be visable for several seconds, just long enough for someone to read them.
    So my questions are, 1 - How do I connect all the groups together?  2 - How do I insert the individual images? and 3 - How do I get those individual images to stay visible long enough for people to read the text?
    I may need to add some sound to the animation at some point as well, but that's not definate yet!
    I think that's everything (I hope!)  Any help would be very much appreciated
    Cheers
    Jim

    So my questions are, 1 - How do I connect all the groups together?  2 - How do I insert the individual images? and 3 - How do I get those individual images to stay visible long enough for people to read the text?
    As Bogesian says, this may be best done in Premiere or another editing application.  If you do it in AE, you can import the image sequences as single pieces of footage, and the individual images as individual images.  Then you add the footage to an AE comp: the easiest way is to add the first image sequnce to the make comp icon at the bottom of the project window, let AE make the comp, and then change the comp's duration in the comp settings.  You then add the footage items to the comp, moving them as needed along the timeline.  You can trim the out points of the single images to the duration you want. 
    But there could be a more fundamental problem: 30 fps is VERY RARELY a valid frame rate, especially if it's going to video, Blu-Ray or DVD:  the proper frame rate is almost always 29.97.  If it's goes to the web ONLY -- no possible chance of ever going to video, Blu-Ray or DVD -- 30 would be okay.  You need to double-check your frame rates.
    And here are the tips on importing images or image sequences:

  • QT does not assemble image sequences

    Hello all,
    First of all I can't search the discussions with the revamped website as I don't get any results from apple discussion boards. Maybe I'm missing something or need to go back to school.
    My problem is that since upgrading to FCP Studio 2, I can't assemble image sequences in QT. I don't get any error message, QT doesn't crash, simply nothing happens. Is anyone else experiencing this? My images are 16-bit Tiff's that I rendered out of Cinema 4D. I have never had this issue before. My current work around is to open my image sequences in Shake and render out a QT movie. Works fine but definitely slows down my workflow.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Stu

    Hi. I was just having the exact same problem. Don't know if you ever got it solved, but the way I fixed it was to rename the files. Don't know what QT didn't like about the way I had named the images, but that did it for me (use the "Replace Text In Item Names" script under the Finder Scripts option under the AppleScript menu bar icon).

  • Image Sequences PAL to NTSC

    I have a bunch of image sequences that are currently in the PAL aspect ratio. I'm going to be using them as title/chyron/lower third backgrounds that I'll be putting text on and using them in FCP over an NTSC sequence.
    My question is how to go about making these image sequences NTSC. My first thought is simple when I build the Image Sequence in QT, setting them to NTSC standards, 29.97, Animation Codec with 720:486. Or I could set them to PAL specifications and convert them in compressor's standards convertor. I also have the Graham Nattress standards converter as well. I tried doing the first way, and the look seemed pretty close. Nothing looked squished or anything.
    I think that avoiding standards conversion may be okay with these files as they are basically tiff files and not true video. Thank you, everyone!

    You can also use JES Deinterlacer, which is free. Go to:
    http://www.xs4all.nl/~jeschot/home.html#DEI
    I had some PAL video I wanted to change into NTSC - I ended up working on the whole project in PAL in FCE, then exporting my finished movie, and only converting the final movie into NTSC at the end. JES does a very good job, but I do see some artifacts of the conversion, so I wanted to keep my edits in the clean PAL video, in case I got a better conversion later. I use FCE 3.5.1, though. I hear FCE 4 can use files in various formats at the same time. Not sure how that works, and what choices you can make about conversion, when it finally happens.
    The Nattress converter demo looked good, and gets many good ratings - but with FCE 4 accepting various formats, does that not mean it should have it's own way of converting formats? don't know.
