    Hey Everyone,
    I know I’m a bit of a noob so, sorry if this is a super easy question.

    I have rendered out an animation to .tif files since all the tutorials I am taking say that it is the best way to render because if the system crashes you only have to re-render from the last successfully created frame….Well, now I have about 90 .tif files in my render directory….How do I assemble these into a .mov file? I’ve scoured the internet and there seem to be a number of people saying photoshop or quicktime will do it for you.

    Anyone have any idea on where I should go with this? If I use photoshop where do I begin?

    Well, I am using QuickTime Pro 7.6.6 to open my image-sequences…
    (unfortunately QuickTime 10 doesn’t do it yet…)

    As far as I know, one needs Photoshop Extended to import image-sequences…?

    In Photoshop Extended, you can open video files and image sequences in the following formats.
    QuickTime video formats
    MPEG‑1
    MPEG‑4
    MOV
    AVI
    FLV from QuickTime is supported if you have Adobe Flash 8 installed.
    MPEG‑2 is supported if an MPEG‑2 encoder is installed on your computer.
    Image sequence formats
    BMP
    DICOM
    JPEG
    OpenEXR
    PNG
    PSD
    Targa
    TIFF
    Cineon and JPEG 2000 are supported if the plug‑ins are installed.
For more information on plug‑ins and how to install them, see also Plug‑ins.
    Note: In Photoshop Extended, you can select multiple single-layer DICOM files and open them in a video layer (like opening an image sequence). See DICOM files (Photoshop Extended).
