I'm not sure how it stores those images, so this is a bit of a shot in the dark.
#Istopmotion resolution not matching movie
My thought is that iMovie might work better with a movie rather than a collection of images.
You could try exporting to a high quality video and then importing that back in and using it in a new project. You said it looked good in iMovie already but is getting sluggish to playback in iMovie. Apple still charges for that 'Pro' feature. It has a feature to import a sequence of images. Remember, exporting to full HD makes no sense if you don't have the Pro version since it is limiting your project to less than that.Īnother tool to try is QuickTime Player 7 Pro. I notice they also have a "Send to iMovie" option. If options aren't grayed out, match the frame rate to your project or try leaving it at "Current" and choose "Key Frames:" All. Under the "Setting." tab, try the "Compression Type" of "Apple Intermediate Codec", Animation, "Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2", or perhaps H.264, or Video. Upon output, you can choose a very custom setup by using File->"Export."->QuickTime Movie->"Customize.". I also think you should set the frame rate to what you expect to output. For the Preset, I would try Medium or Large, or maybe even custom if the size of your images are odd. High resolution images from a still digital camera perhaps? Is the ratio 4:3 or 3:2? You hinted it is 4:3. When you create a project, make sure you set that up correctly. One has to assume it matters since they have several settings upon creation and a limit on the size. Their Pro version handles 10,000x10,000! Also, you can't tell what your project is set to.

Why, when 1080p and 720p are so common in the consumer space now. The Home and Express editions are limited to 960x540 resolution. I've always thought that Boinx is a little brain dead when it comes to iStopmotion. Or is there maybe just some small trick that I am missing? Should I use a completely different software for this and start from scratch? I am working in 4:3 ration, and the best option seems to be HD ( but in 16:9 only) so that doesnt seem to work. I have tried so many different settings while exporting from istopmotion, but it doesn´t seem to make much difference. I just got istopmotion and did a small test reimporting just onescene, then trying to export it, and importing it into imovie (i like using imovie because of all the possibilities of playing around with contrasts and colors)īut now the quality of the images looks really bad. I started to read about imovie and discovered it isn´t supposed to be used for stopmotion. I am getting really stressed about this now since I have put so much work into it and just want to finish the project (maybe add another 2 more min) and export it to a dvd with as good quality as possible.

Sometimes I can´t even watch the video, and definitely not in the full size mode, just on a small video image in imovie. It looks good, but since the film is now over 5 min long, the software (or can it be my computer?)get´s really slow. As I am not very good with computers and all the settings that there are, I just imported every single image from iPhoto into Imovie and changed the time lapse for each image to 0,2 and that´s how I created the animated film. I have created the real 3D sets, done the clay figures and shot the still images. For the last 3 months I have been working on creating an animated stopmotion film. I am wondering if somebody could help me.
