Another Flight

Another experimental video using Mandelbulber 3D v2.
A more colourful, complex shape.
Video made from 360 rendered stills which took 6.5 hrs to create.
Some in the middle of the animation sequence went a bit haywire so were omitted.



I noticed that the still background was rendered fresh every time which added to the time taken.
The close zoomed section ended up faster than I wanted.
Lots of learning to do regarding choosing where to put keyframes for a smooth flight.

Mandel Flight

Inspired by Adrian (Adrian's Images) when he posted some animations and following  a link he sent me I found Mandelbulber 3D for Mac. This app draws 3D representations of Mandlebrots. This is my first attempt in making a video with it using one of the 3D 'shapes' included in the app.



It took about 34 minutes to render 198 png images. First I tried importing them in iMovie but for some unfathomable reason it reversed the animation direction of every other image. Next I tried VideoPad which reversed the order they played. Anyway I saved that as an mp4 then imported that movie in iMovie and reversed the direction of play, added sound and created the finished video.
