Review - Virtualdub - A Better Way to Make 2D Animations

[dudegoon1]

how do u actually make the animation?

[convex37]

Do you have a voice modulator on or something?!

[potchimotchi]

Great! perfect answer to the question in my head, thanks!

@potchimotchi

Another thing to make your video file smaller is to remove the audio: in the Menu "Audio", check "No Audio"

Can you buy a mic? Like a good one? One where I can understand you? Thanks.

I have a program that lets you make an animation program (LOL that's right), the problem with that is you cant make it export into a video format, you can only make it export as individual frames.

Based on how you put it, that combined with Virtualdub should yield promising results.

Interpolation is like where if you make a guy start in one corner, then in the next frame in the other, he wil move by a certain timeline if you make it tween.

@sam123486 Ah yes thats what I thought. So to answer your question, no, this software does not have interpolation (I don't think). If it does I've never seen an option for it.

[kanjo567]

this works with videos too right?

[FreewareFanatic]

Yes, in fact its main purpose is to work with videos. However, you can use it to make 2D animations.

Although, it probably wouldn't work with both together, you'd have to make the animation into a video and then use that video with other videos in the editor.

Hope this answers your question.

the effects of the swords,can u make these effects in that program?

[FreewareFanatic]

No, I used a GIMP plug-in to make those effects

[sam123486]

does it have interpolation?

[FreewareFanatic]

Assuming I'm right (don't know too much about this) in that interpolation is blending between the two frames, no. This is just a simple way to put the animations together, not really an advanced tool.

You can add filters, so in essence, you could possibly get some sort of plug-in to do this, but I'm not 100% sure and wouldn't feel right sending you off to do something possibly dangerous.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but I think it'd be easier to look elsewhere. Otherwise, use plug-ins.
