Hi All,

I make music, and currently learning 3D animation to make videos for my song releases- I've been experimenting with incorporating footage from magic in my scenes. - which it would be nice if we had avi export, the software I'm using doesn't favor mp4 for synch reasons. - Cheers

wow this looks really nice. is this now the magic output or the output of your animation software?

[AniRhythm]

Thank You

I'm importing the magic visual to iclone ( www.reallusion.com ) and exporting from there.

cheers,

Ricky

Nice one Ricky.

Have you tried exporting from Magic using a .png sequence instead of an .mp4? It will give you the best quality and it doesn't have any sync issues since each frame is independent.

Thank You Eric, I didn't think of that, and it's good to know!! - I also use the hitfilm / sony vegas combo ( also very cool to use with composite magic footage btw! - www.hitfilm.com ) , so I could assemble the png sequence there - iclone doesn't take the png sequence straight so I'd have to make it into an avi or wmv movie first. - I've been using "any video convertor" http://www.any-video-converter.com/prod ... ideo_free/ to go from mp4 to avi

Most of the time, I find myself looking for quick solutions to make concept ideas - u know throw ideas up at the ceiling to see if they stick on youtube hehe - i confess to being a newbie at times looking for ez buttons while i experiment and learn / create new stuff.

here's another I made - all done in magic including logo - nothing fancy, just a simple visual for the track. *video thumbnail was made in iclone.
