In this article we will see how we can create a image sequence clip in MoviePy. MoviePy is a Python module for video editing, which can be used for basic operations on videos and GIF’s. Video is formed by the frames, combination of frames creates a video each frame is an individual image. Image sequence clip is the clip which is formed by combining images one by one to form a sequence i.e video.
In order to do this we will use
ImageSequenceClipmethodSyntax : ImageSequenceClip([‘image_file1.jpeg’, …], fps=24)
Argument : It takes image file names and fps as argument
Return : It returns ImageSequenceClip object
Below is the implementation
# importing editor from movie py from moviepy.editor import * # creating a Image sequence clip with fps = 1 clip = ImageSequenceClip(['frame1.png', 'frame2.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame2.png'], fps = 1) # showing clip clip.ipython_display(width = 360) |
Output :
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
Another example
# importing editor from movie py from moviepy.editor import * # creating a Image sequence clip with fps = 3 clip = ImageSequenceClip(['frame1.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame2.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame2.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame1.png', 'frame2.png'], fps = 3) # showing clip clip.ipython_display(width = 360) |
Output :
Moviepy - Building video __temp__.mp4.
Moviepy - Writing video __temp__.mp4
Moviepy - Done !
Moviepy - video ready __temp__.mp4
