Stagetools Moving Pictures
Do any of you out there use StageTools Moving Pictures?
It takes an eternity to render 1080 picture moves with this thing. And it also has a ton of quirks.
Does anyone use it successfully? Anyone have any alternatives to do better moves than FCP basic motion can handle?
Thanks

Motion does a great job.

How well does Motion work when you have say 75 images that need motion in a 30 minute 1080p ProRes project? Is it manageable and easy enough to go back into motion to tweak a move?
Thanks for the help.

Jimmy,
Go ahead and check out Motion, but take a look at Fotomagico too. I compared it with Moving Picture a few years back, FM won hands down.
Have a wonderful day.

I bought the Core Melt ImageFlow for stills using Motion and I love it. Motion rocks. Doing movement on stills in FCP is a PITA but in Motion, it is easy and quick.

I use the Lyric Pan Zoom Pro plug-in. I generally like it. It isn’t perfect, but I find it much easier to use than StageTools. I have been thinking about using Motion for a while. I suspect that I may use Lyric as a ‘quick-and-dirty’ tool to handle 90% of the work and do critical stuff in Motion.

I use the Lyric plug too, but it takes a bit of time to render. Fotomagico is very fast.
Have a wonderful day.

Is Fotomagico a plugin or a standalone program? Ideally I would like to stay in the timeline so if there are changes, they could easily be made.
