There's an old, old classic app that took a bunch of stills and strung them into a movie. I remember I got it when I was messing with POV-ray for the mac. This was a long time ago. and I can't remember it, though I may have a copy squirreled away on an old backup at home. Also, Quicktime Pro will take sequentially numbered still images and convert them to a .mov file. (and if you have access to the old Mac Addict disks you can still score a copy of QT 3 player, which lets you do it without needing the pro series.) -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig who says 'Ni!' -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: clay animation software
I haven't been following this topic very well, but I myself make animations and I use OS 9 all the time. They are not clay animations (made with LEGO actually) but its all the same. These are a few programs for the classic OS that should work well for what you need: Framed: a program that will let you take the still pictures from your digital camera and put them together into a movie file. Works pretty well for me. Its also free. http://www.likelysoft.com/framed/ FrameThief: this is a frame capturing program that will allow you to capture frames from a webcam, digital camcorder, or digital still camera. A single user license for it is only $40, but they also have an education single user price of $35. http://www.framethief.com/ BTV and BTV Pro: another frame capturing program. BTV allows you to capture frames, while BTV Pro has an actual stop motion feature. I have not used any of these personally so I do not have much experience with it. http://www.bensoftware.com/index.html Loud Inc: they make two stop motion programs. One of which is their normal version and one which is made specifically for kids. Some of the pages on their website are corrupted, so I have not been able to try them out. I know that the regular version (StopMotion Studio) has a $45 registration fee. I do not know if the kids version does or how much it is. StopMotioner: this program from Mein Software is still in the beta steps I believe. I also have not tried it out but it looks promising. http://www.miensoftware.com/stopmotioner.html That is about all of the software I can think of for now. Hope this helps. -Cody PS: if you would like to see some of the stop motion animations that are made with LEGO go here: http://www.brickfilms.com .

Re: clay animation software
ratz... my G3 Beige is only 277MHz so how did they do clay animation in the...uh old G3 days? Kristina If you can connect the video source to your mac, consider BTV Pro. It can run in any old G3, and can do frame grabbing (with onion skin, so you can compare with you previous frame), as well as video, besides a lot more (time lapse capture, quicktime editing, etc).

It has RCA video input which should be perfect for your camcorder (you were talking non-digital camcorder IIRC, just composite video out, right?) I've seen that ATI card go for nothing used in the last few years. So- you could do it with that, plus some additional software. HTH. Or, if you had somewhere to write to for a $450 grant, you could get a Mac Mini and have a much better experience, but you still might have to deal with the composite input if you don't have a digital camcorder somewhere.

Not sure if it's still available. One thing for sure, you *CAN'T* convert analog to DV by software because, for the video to be converted by software, you would need to put it onto the computer. In doing so, you transform it (or have to transform it) into a digital video stream.

Well, there have been video input cards for many years on the Macintosh. Usually, these cards would have some dedicated chips that would do the conversion from analog to digital. Back then, you also needed to have a fast Macintosh because of the amount of information that was captured in real time. There were also cards for PowerBooks. I still have a CapSure PCMCIA card that lets you import video into a PowerBook. I tried it a few times when I got it a few years ago. The quality was average but it was doing the work. Before iMovie, you would use a software like Adobe Premiere to do the editing. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelinhttp://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] flat adj.: 1.

Said of a memory architecture (like that of the VAX or 680x0) that is one big linear address space (typically with each possible value of a processor register corresponding to a unique core address), as opposed to a `segmented' architecture (like that of the 80x86) in which addresses are composed from a base-register/offset pair (segmented designs are generally considered cretinous). -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
