How do I make a time lapse on a new mac and CS5?

gmando says:

Hello! I've searched the discussions but can't seem to find an up to date topic.

Is there a way of making a time lapse film using CS5? I've tried the animation timeline but you can only seem to save as a gif? Is there a way of saving as a .mov or something.

I have a new macbook pro (mac OS X 10.6.4) and it comes with quicktime 10 which doesn't seem to give you the option for opening images in a sequence like quicktime 7 pro does which i don't think will work on this new mac anyway. Any suggestions??? cheers! :)

	Tennessee_Gator says: Assuming you have a bunch of images for a time lapse. Put them in a folder in numerical order. Go Files > Scrips > Load Files into Stack Go Window > Workspace > Motion. You'll see the timeline at the bottom. In the Layers Panel select all the layers using SHIFT or COMMAND/CONTROL key. Now from the LITTLE TINEY Animation timeline menu choose MAKE FRAMES FROM LAYERS. Now you can Export > Render Video. Posted 23 months ago. (permalink)

	Tennessee_Gator says: I would be remiss if I didn't point out that you could do it without PS. You would need to download Quicktime 7 from Apple and make it a pro version. Then just put the sequential photos in a folder and "Open Image Sequence" in quicktime. You can set the frame rate and save it to any quality you'd like. Posted 23 months ago. (permalink)
