Playing an image sequence with the RAM Player
- [Instructor] In the previous exercise we saved out a sequence of images, 150 separate files, each a still frame from this animation. We want to view that image sequence as a motion picture, as a movie. We can do that using a tool called the RAM Player. It's found in the Rendering menu, at the very bottom, Compare Media in RAM Player. Open that up and we get a window. The menu item says compare media because RAM Player has two channels, Channel A and Channel B. We could load in two different sequences and compare them. We only want to load in one right now to view it. Click on the folder to open Channel A. We should be taken to the Render Output folder in the current project. Navigate to your image sequence. I've got one here, camera arc sequence example. Go inside there, and there are 150 still frames. Select the first frame in the sequence and at the bottom of the window, double-check to make sure that the…
