hand drawn animation question
hi there,
i’d like to animate a series of pictures so they appear in succession, each picture staying on the screen for 2.5 frames, the animation is at 25 frames per second.
i have them in the timeline but at the moment each layer (each picture is on a separate layer) is lasting for the full length of the animation (20 seconds)
is there a quick way to do this? because positioning them on the timeline no doubt would be a pain do to for 200 pictures.
thanks

If your pictures are already framed the way you want them to be, ie. lined up right, then just number them (the file names, that is) numerically from beginning to end ( 0000001 – 9999999) and import them into AE as an image sequence. You do that by selecting the first frame in the folder and checking the import as sequence box below. If you want it to be a certain frame rate within a different compositional frame rate, simply right-click (option-click) the sequence file and choose interpret main. Change the frame rate to the desired animation frame rate. That will allow you to use frame blending to import a 15fps (or whatever) animation into standard (again whatever your standard is {24p – 60i}) frame rate composition.
