Amazing program and package!!
Can you help me with this situation. My first video
I have a club branch banner in .jpg and need the image to be made into a character. 30 clubs will bring their banner and i need to 'video' a banner parade. The system keeps givng me an error. wrong format? So start with making one banner into a moving character.
The vision is that the banner will come onto a stage, move across left to right, spin at the centre of stage, hold facing the audience for say 2 secs, and then go into a group milling on stage right.
How can i get the image to become a character.
Is it practical to have say 40 characters. The banners look the same, it is just the club name at the bottom that is changed.
thanks john

Did you mean that you want a banner on the clothes of your characters ? Sorry I talk French.

Hi Dwarf
I want the Banner to be a character.
if you like the banner (a flag with the group name on it ) would have legs and arms but no head.
and the flag walks onto the stage.
It has to be big enough to read the words of the club name.

That's hard, but I think we could be able to do that.
You can take a wall, and then, put the picture of your flag on in. After, you add some legs ....

I will try to do what I can for you, I'm comming back in 10 minutes.

You could do something like this, but add some arms like you want:

I'm not sure it's totally what you want, but I try to found ideas.

i really dont think it would be possible to make a banner (flag) with arms and legs that can walk about. the super hero characters can have their arms legs and body removed but not the head. i supose you could use the super hero legs with a moving backdrop as a body, but syncing them both together to do what you want would be a nightmare and having 30 characters doing it would be a nigh on impossible (if your computer could handle 30 characters at once walking about)
its not a project id like to take on. sorry i was no help at all. someone else might think up a solution.

Hi Dwarf
That is great.
i would also be happy if the banner has no surround or legs.
it can just glide a cross the screen, as long as it can twirl when it gets to the centre. and then continue gliding off the screen.
it is a flag after all. as a character, it is thin, but wide and tall
how did you get the file to be accepted into the program.
