processing to video editing? (Read 307 times)
processing to video editing?
Feb 21st, 2008, 8:41pm
 
is it possible to pass processing files into a video editing program? I wonder if you could somehow merge video and a processing file to make it so for example the particles behavior is happening in the sky of a recorded landscape?

it might be a stupid question but I am newbie and very interested in learning.  

thank you for your time.

the processing files itselves do not contain any video. just some code. so, your video editing program won't know what to do with that. but here are some other ways to do what you want :

you may import a video into processing (using the Video library) and display it in the background while drawing your particles over it.

you may export a processing animation (either using the Video library again, or another capture program), then merge it with a video using an external video editor.
