Download MediaTools or install from the CD-ROM. There are several accessory programs. We shall be using MovieMaker. You can install MovieMaker anywhere. I'll assume that you put it either inside Applications or on the Desktop. MovieMaker is the same on the PC and on the Mac. The only difference is that you can't double click its icon and expect it to run on the Mac. Instead do the following:
Open a terminal window. (The terminal application is in Applications/Utilities).
Go to the folder that MovieMaker is in. Say it is Desktop/MovieMaker. You do this by typing the following at the terminal prompt:
cd Desktop/MovieMaker
If you put MovieMaker in Applications, you need to type the following instead:
cd /Applications/MovieMaker
Optional! If you type 'ls' you should see a list of file names printed in the terminal that corresponds to the files you see in the folder in the Finder. This means you're in the right place.
Run MovieMaker by typing the following exactly:
./MovieMaker
(you need the dot, the slash, and the capitals) This is the step that corresponds to double clicking on the icon if you were using a PC.
The remaining instructions are common to the Mac and the PC versions
Follow the instructions on the web to use MovieMaker. It creates a .mov file in the same folder as MovieMaker itself from the images that you specify. 16 fps is a good frame rate for a movie but is a bit jerky. In HW3, we are asking for 30 fps.
Optional. You may want to move the .mov file to the same folder as your .jpgs just so you can keep track of everything.
Double click on the .mov file icon. It should run Quicktime movie player (on the Mac) or Windows Media Player (on Windows). You can download Quicktime and Windows Media Player, but one is usually already installed with MacOS or with Windows.
