  Particle emitter with moving video

  Posted by Greg Galowitz on September 1, 2009 at 2:36 am

  I am trying to make a particle emitter but i was to use video and not still images. So is it possible to point the emitter to a folder that has about 30 1min videos in it? So it would be random on what videos are coming out.

  Thanks for the help Greg

  Negative, that would require 30 different emitters, each pointing to a separate video clip, each set to random start frames.

  You can, however, create a new moviein FCP, highly intercut, that appears to have random frames from all of your 30 clips and use that as your emitter source.
  Or you can create on long movie of all 30 clips and establish the random setting high enough that no two consecutive particles are from the same clip.
