Creating an image sequence
While Video Paint is your best choice for drawing on your video, there may
be times when you want to extract a series of frames from your clip for
editing in a more powerful image editing application, like Photoshop or
PhotoImpact. You can do this by creating a Ulead Image Sequence
(*.UIS) file of the video project or preview region. When you create a
Ulead Image Sequence, Video Editor sequentially numbers each frame and
saves it as a standard image file. You can convert these images back to a
video file using the File: Convert: Video File command and selecting the
*.UIS file type.
To create a Ulead image sequence:
1.
Click File: Create: Video File.
2.
Select Ulead Image Sequence Files (*.UIS) and the drive and folder
where you want to save the frames of the video.
3.
Enter a File name.
4.
Click the Options button to view or edit the properties for each of the
image sequence files.
Note: When creating a Ulead image sequence, all options in the Video Save Options
dialog box are ignored except for those in the Format tab.
5.
Click the Format tab and select the file format and data type of the
images in the sequence. If the file type you select allows customization,
the Image Save Options button is enabled.
6.
Click OK. The Options dialog box closes returning you to the Create
Video File dialog box.
7.
Click Save.
Animation programs frequently have the option of outputting animations as
an image series. These can, of course, be imported into MediaStudio Pro
(see page 121 for details).
