    Hi.

    I am to deliver the pay-off of an hd originated commersial as an animated gif.

    The project is FCP/Shake

    What I am thinking is along the lines of
    Scale
    Export as image sequence
    Drop every 2nd image
    ???

    -;)

    Photoshop or Adobe ImageReady have features for creating animated GIFs. This should be a good way to get them properly formatted.
    Here’s a quote from the Photoshop 7.0 help.

    You can easily create animated GIFs from existing one-layer-per-frame images in Adobe Photoshop file format or from a group of single-layer images.

    You can make each layer in a multilayer Photoshop file a separate frame in the Animation palette. The layers are placed in the Animation palette in their stacking order, with the bottom layer becoming the first frame.

    You can also import a folder of files and use each file as a frame in ImageReady. Files can be in any format that ImageReady supports. Each file becomes a frame in the Animation palette. The files are placed in the Animation palette in alphabetical order by image filename.
