Make an old movie from a photo in GIMP - Animation tutorial

GIMP animation tutorial. How to turn an photo into an old movie using GIMP. You'll learn how to make an animation using layers in GIMP.
After following this tutorial you'll know how to make a basic animation in GIMP.
I'll make the photo look old by making it black and white and adding a sepia effect. I'll also teach you how to add noise to a photo.

You need to G'MIC plug in for this tutorial. You can get it here:
http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp.shtml

A video that will tell you how to install G'MIC in another way in case you're confused

A simple windows installer is here, but it's an older version so try the normal method of installing first. This older version will work for this tutorial though.

This is good but some versions of Gimp do not have the preview window; like mine.Version 2.6 for Linux Ubuntu.

@viking1au What preview? In G'MIC or with the animation? Haven't checked G'MIC on Ubuntu, but the animation preview works just fine.

i thought it would be easy, but i cant get the animation to go frame by frame, what happens is each frame stays up so by the end of the animation all the frames are in one frame and the image is a blur because they all overlapped. thank you so much, i tried everything .

Frame disposal where unspecified -> One frame per layer (replace)
