Creating An Image Sequence - Ulead MEDIASTUDIO PRO 8 User Manual

Creating an image sequence

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.
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.
