But to make videos, he had to take screenshots for individual frames and add them into a separate video editor.
Yup, that is what Emily does.
 
If you're going to so much manual fuss @Emily, having to screenshot individual frames and put them into a video editor, that's a massive amount of work. You might actually find that a 2d animation tool (Synfig or Opentoonz) is actually easier, not harder.

Nope, sorry. My brain is strange and can handle what I'm doing more easier than animation.

1) EVERY brain is strange. We all learn in our own unique ways. I have 9 kids, but all 9 had their own strengths & weaknesses. How we explained it to one child wouldn't work for the others. Meagan picked up reading w Beka Blue-Backed Speller fast. Alex needed "Hooked on Phonics". Hannah was struggling w math until we tried "Common Core", then it clicked.
3 verses that emphasize this point:

1 Corinthians 10:13 (NASB)
"No temptation has overtaken you but such as is COMMON to man; ..."

This 1st verse reminds us that your challenge is SHARED. You are NOT going through this alone. Other people have your same challenges and excel.

Mark 8:34 (NASB)
... “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me."

This 2nd verse reminds us that even as the cross did NOT stop Jesus from carrying on w His mission, our person challenge shouldn't stop us either.

Hebrews 12:2 (NASB)  
"fixing our eyes on Jesus, the  author and perfecter of faith, who for the JOY set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

This 3rd verse explains how Jesus overcame His literal cross: He looked beyond the temporary suffering to the eternal reward.

As you mature, you will become ready. Maybe not today, but soon.

It sounds more like she has "fear of change". That overcomes itself when the real pain of staying become greater than the imagined pain of changing.
 
Hey @Tesfalcon, may I have a link to your son's YouTube Channel?

Yes, I agree. Pay attention to this @Emily! This:

Might simply be completely mistaken. You may well just need someone to explain it to you in a way that makes sense, then you'll think "I never realised this was so much easier".
 
What video editor are you using?

Video editing has its own words for stuff since it's over 150 years old.

The first "video" was a carousel horse lamp shade around a candle. When u spun the shade, the horse looked like it was moving up & down like on a merry-go-round. (They showed this in the song "A Million Dreams" in "The Greatest Showman".)

After Eastman Kodak invented photography, Edison turned single images on a reel into "moving pictures". Each image is a "frame" (what the camera sees) like the frame around a picture on the wall. Using film, the length of the video was determined by how long of a length of film you had. Originally, they were hand cranked. (The movie "Hugo" goes into these early movies quite a bit.)

In digital editing, each screenshot is a "frame". Somewhere on your screen is a "timeline" where they show up. They farther apart they are, the longer they appear. The closer, the shorter.

This style of video creation is VERY common in video games where space has historically been at a premium. The original Pac-Man simply alternated between 2 images (known as "sprites"): mouth open & mouth closed. MOF, there weren't even separate images for left vs right. The image was flipped in code and drawn in reverse.

Besides being simpler and more direct, it is also much more flexible. While 2D animation might allow a fuller exploration of an imagined character or scene, stop motion animation allows for greater flexibility in source of artwork: Gacha Club or MS-Paint or even PlayDough claymation using a digital camera.

"Myst" was made using Macintosh's Card File system which was intended for recipes, etc. Still images linked to each other became a #1 game in the 90s.
 
Veedio is the same Veedio from Italy?
 
I just signed up for an account there. They keep asking for audio / video files to upload, not still images.

What am I missing?

I didn't make an account on it. I just press "Upload Your Video".

So you must have already have made a video before uploading it to that site. What software do you use to turn all of your still images into a video?

No, Upload Your Video takes me to the editor.
 
Also, I use Veedio and Gacha Club both on my computer, I don't know if that makes a difference as well.
