Okay...so I'm in a "programming for artists" type class and I need help with my program. The basic idea of the program is to display an array of gifs over a video that I made in Final Cut. The array is thirty images, each just a black image with a transperant hole cut in them, and are about 4 kbs each. Everytime I try to run the program it displays like 4 or 5 of them and then displays an error that reads:

"Exception in thread "Thread-2" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space"

I'm not sure what's wrong with the code but if anyone could give me any kind of help I'd greatly appreciate it. Here's the code:



import processing.video.*;

Movie doorMovie;
Mask doorMask;

void setup() {
 size(720, 480);
 doorMask = new Mask("Mask", 29); //the masks created to cover the video, 30 of them
 doorMovie = new Movie(this, "The Door.mov"); //the video of a dolly up to a door
 doorMovie.loop();
 frameRate(2);
}

void draw() {  
 image(doorMovie, 0, 0);
 doorMask.display();
}

// Called every time a new frame is available to read
void movieEvent(Movie m) {
 m.read();
}


class Mask
{
 PImage[] degrade;
 int frame;
 int numFrames;

 Mask(String imageName, int frameCount) {
   numFrames = frameCount;
   degrade = new PImage[numFrames];
   loadImages(imageName);
 }

 void loadImages(String name) {
   for(int i=0; i<numFrames; i++) {
     String imageName = name + ((i < 10) ? "0" : "") + i + ".gif";
     degrade[i] = loadImage(imageName);
   }
 }

 void display(){
   int framenum = int(random(numFrames));
   println(framenum);
   image(degrade[framenum], 0, 0);
 }
}  


The idea seemed simple enough...so I figured the code would be too but it's not working. Again, if anyone could give me any kind of help I'd greatly appreciate it.

Maybe you're interested in this post.

There is no need to load images for a mask cause you can build the mask in processing using a PGraphics object. Also you're more flexible this way, cause you can move the mask hole by the mouse for example, or change the size of the hole.
