Urgent question for all those who make movies on their PC
« on: June 03, 2009, 10:44:50 AM »
Hi guys, I am in need of desperate help. I am producing an animation for a presentation at work, and although I have produced it with Windows Movie Maker, the final resolution is crap. I am trying to find another movie making program that can make movies to a much better quality, and or higher resolution than the poo 640x480 that WMM can only do. But it needs to be able to use slides what are of .gif format due to the way I have animated it.

HELP!

Also, I don't have Vista so the HD version of Movie Maker is not an option for me :(

I use adobe premier elements. I export in the mpeg2 format. Have you tried exporting as an AVI? Is the file size an issue?

EDIT: it doesnt do avi :(

Adobe premiere Pro (or what ever other version)
I used this program all through uni to edit my animations

Also there is Final cut pro ---

I Reckon these two are higher up in the 'software foodchain' for editing video

All the animators / video people I know use these

Although? Surely you mean because! WMM sucks! lol. =)
And I agree with above. Adobe Premier Pro would do the job. =)

Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.

Sony Vegas 8. Pretty much Sony's version of Premier Pro.

Final Cut Pro is Mac OSX only. You may have been on a PC emulating Mac OSX, or on a Mac emulating Windows alongside Mac OSX, but it is definately not available for windows.
