turning still shots in video

[weeds]

no that i have my GOPRO, how do i turn a heap of still shots into a video

i tried windows movie maker but it does seem to cut the mustard i.e it seems to miss shots and i cannot work out how to speed the time up between shots......

oh a bit more info, for a couple of jobs at work the camera will be set to take a pic every 1 min

Windows movie maker is ok for basic stuff. :)

To speed up the play:

Before you add photos to the storyboard, goto Tools, options, advanced,
select the picture duration and transition duration you want,
it will then be applied to all the photos you add.

grrr, doesn't seem to work, even though i change the setting it sets the duration at 5sec

i'm wondering if i have to reduce the size of each pic

I downloaded something to make small animations of pics the kids were taking. The most difficult part was working out which program would download and let me try it out without stupid conditions.

I think I copied all the pics into a folder and pointed the program at it.

Kelvin - give virtualdub a go you can import a sequence of stills and it will turn them into video (avi)

Had a play at some night timelapse last night

1 frame every 30 seconds (only 65 frames) just to see what happened

Takes about 10 minutes with the software that comes with the Mac :cool:

Assuming it is a bit dependent on the number of photos in the set.
10min for 65 frames is a bit slow :D:D

weeds are you wanting to do a time lapse?

otherwise why aren't you just filming with the go pro rather than taking pics and trying to create film?

Perhaps he has stills to put in between the video action :)

MS video story is a simple program that turns still shots into a slide show that you can add music to and adjust the transitions from one frame to the next, free download and easy to use. You can even put video's in between the stills before burning to dvd.
