Easy stop motion with a mac and photo-camera

Posted by random8r Fri, 04 Jun 2010 04:39:00 GMT

Take one mac, and one camera (iphone works well).

You need a copy of QuickTime player 7… which doesn’t come on new macs if I remember correctly… bit of a fail there as you can do things on this old version that you can’t do on the latest one. Long story but basically apple is reinventing quicktime in a new “x” version variety which means there’s some functionality missing, but what *is* there (basically playing back media) works a lot better in Snow Leopard.

So yeah, grab this, take some pics, iPhoto connect your camera, grab the images out and then drag them into a new QuickTime 7 player movie window… this will insert the pictures in the order you’ve got them on the disk and basically create you a stop motion video.

Save and voila! :)
