    MovieFX: Combining real and virtual, part 1

    Welcome to the new MovieFX series of TBGL tutorials!

    As the name suggests, they will introduce you to various ThinBASIC techniques, which can be used to produce moving pictures.

    The "Combining the real and the virtual" sub branch of the movie related tutorials focuses on one extremely attractive topic of today, which is enhancing pictures and movies of real world around us with computer generated elements.

    The structure of tutorials is done in classic way from basics to more complex topics.
    The series “for advanced” presume the reader is already familiar with TBGL .

    MovieFX series start with very simple scene, which will show you how to turn still photo into less static video with one CG object added.

    To create AVI, VirtualDub is used to do some post processing and generate the final file.

    Download PDF article
    Download script
    Download final AVI with sound (16 MB)

    I hope you will like it. It is quite simple (script has 170 lines) but somebody could find it interesting.

    That is great Petr. Incredible effect.

    Maybe at the end you can ... wipe out the UFO at warp speed

    Thanks Eros,

    I will add some more effects and more intelligent animation in next parts of the MovieFX article series.

    There are still many suspicious things to fix in this video - for example still birds on the antenna
