Create strip from image sequence

817 views5 repliesLast post: 10/4/2008
I need a script or action, or droplet or something that will take a folder of images and create One Image strip from it. Basically I have animations I have rendered out as frames that I need to put in a game. The game needs the images in one file with all the images side by side (or on top of each other I think) The frames are all one size (but different for each sequence) It takes about 4 hours for me to do this now. And then if it has to change it's four more hours...

Any thoughts idease or techniques?

If you can use stacked layers, and the files are sequentially numbered, open them as an image sequence, then use Flatten frames to layers from the Animation palette flyout menu. This will give you a layer for each frame in the sequence with the original video layer hidden at the bottom.

I would think contact sheet II would work just set the columns to the number of sequence images and set rows to 1. Then make the width of the page wide enough to fit the entire row or images. The longer your sequence is the longer it will take to generate your storyboard.

SilkRooster...If you are ever in vegas...I owe you! Contact sheet II worked like a charm. I did have a small problem in that it added one pixel on the top and one pixel to the left, but I was able to adjust this in the end and build all the files that I needed in under an hour...it used to take the better part of a day!

Thanks again!
