Dear friends,
I did a simple animation movie whitch has a paper sheet being folded as an Origami and it turns to a woman dress. It is a classical Origami work. In the background it has a texture and the paper goes over it with a different texture. All the Origami drawings (movie frames) were made in Illustrator and exported to Photoshop where I did the texture of the dress.
In FCP I opened a new timeline and I insert every single drawing repeting it 3 more times, in the end I had 30 frames per second and a good and smooth animation. Fine by now ......
Last week the client ask me to set the movie to be the introductio of the company's website. Then I exported it through the "quicktime conversion" as a flash file, buuuut the web programer is saying that the file is too heavy.
Will I have to make it all over again in Adobe Flash (urrrgh) ? Any Idea ? Any clue ?

thanks Fellows ....

the webmaster is lazy sad.gif
I always give huuuuuudge files to my clients and they recompress it to integrate in their site
The last animation I made was 1Go per minute (video codec "Video", audio "wave", HD size for dailymotion wink.gif), and the client used my QuickTime movie as intermediate format (with his flash encoder application).

so it's not a real answer, but it's not your job to adapt video to his technical specifications (or he must provide them to you)

You simply duplicated frames? so your "content framerate" is 8 fps? (=30/(3+1))
(I don't understand why a duplication will introduce smothness)
so export your video at this framerate (and the size of your video file will decreasee, easiest to compress it again in a flash format)

bye

Did you export it as a SWF or FLV? Normally the export tools in NLEs are not very good for exporting web video. You should export the video as uncompressed source and then use a encoding software like SUPER (free) or Sorenson Squeeze to encode to a appropriate web format.
