Rendering Black Frames....

Hey I guess I wasn't listening in class when Brett explained how to fix the problem of rendering out black frames. If someone could tell me what to do that'd be awesome.
Hope ya'll are having a good reading week.

FINAL CUT ROAD TRIP FROM HELL

If any one is wondering why FCP is leaving lines across your animation. It's because you have to go into sequence settings and change each clip you drag in individually to square pixels>animation>720X480 or what have you. IF you already figured that out and handed it it then kudos to you! have a great reading week!

Converting a Sequence of Images into a Quicktime Movie

Hey guys,

Found a pretty handy and really simple way to import your Maya image sequence into Final Cut. Every copy of Final Cut Pro comes with a copy of Quicktime Pro, which allows you to edit .MOV files.

1) Export your Maya animation into JPGs using settings from class.

2) Open up "Quicktime Player 7". There is two versions of Quicktime on our computers. It has to be 7 because that's the pro version.



3) Go "File>Open Image Sequence". (You'll know you've opened the wrong version of Quicktime if you don't have this option)



4) Open just the first file in your sequence.



And select the framerate you used in Maya.



5) Now you should be able to watch your animation in the Quicktime Player. To save it as a Quicktime file, just go "File>Save As..."

6) DONE! If you like, you can now import it into Final Cut and add music or wicked sound effects or something.

The External World

Someone on twitter sent this link and it's some pretty amazing animation. Some of it might be NSFW and the rest of it is just bizarre but smoothly animated. Thought you might appreciate it.
