@b6stopmotion157 3 жыл бұрын

I currently use Dragonframe 4.2.4. This was just a quick overview of the program. You just need to connect your camera to your computer to use your camera. I have a video coming out this Friday about camera settings if you want to learn about how to set ISO, shutter speed and aperture.

I have a question it told me to fix the setting on my farmers through dragon frame so I did because the pictures where really Dark before each time I took a picture I had to do it again until I fixed it then after that it was fine I could check all the pictures I took and they where bright and normal but when I exported the video the whole video was dark I am using the free trail version btw

@b6stopmotion157 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not entirely sure what might cause that but here are a couple things you can check to troubleshoot it: 1) double check your test shots. What you see in the timeline might not be the true colors 2) go to your dragonframe project folder and see if the images look ok(in case something happens when exporting) You should be able to figure out what's happening. If not, there might be a weird free trial glitch that I'm not aware of.

are there any videos on how to shoot for 4k and export for 4k in dragonframe? just upgraded to dragonframe 5 and bought a canon eos r8 because client is demanding 4k and i feel soooo lost, have no idea how to do it and for some reason when i open dragonframe its stuck in 4:3 aspect ratio and just wanna die rn lol.

Thank you for helping us noobs out ! :-D , Why re-do the whole up sequence instead of copying and reversing frame 6 to 1 ?

@b6stopmotion157 3 жыл бұрын

Gravity! That's why it's better to not copy frames. When the ball is going down, it stretches more and we need fewer pictures when it gets closer to the ground. But when it is going up, it is going against gravity meaning that it is jumping up a little slower and it's not as stretched anymore. I hope that was helpful.

@@b6stopmotion157 I understand gravity but why not slow the fps on the other frames when copying? Or will this just not work? Sorry my primary language is non English
