In my opinion, you&#39;d be better off making a simple open-source<br>stop-motion program and then importing the stop motion clips into<br>blender. As you said, the functionality is not that complicated:<br>connecting with the device, real-time viewing of the image, and a
<br>capture button.<br><br>While blender isn&#39;t really built for that sort of thing, it would<br>certainly be cool to work it in in the compositing stage.<br><br>Aaron<br><br>On 7/6/07, Johnny Matthews &lt;<a href="mailto:johnny.matthews@gmail.com">

<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; environment, all it needs is a live preview of a webcam/camera/feed<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; and a &quot;freeze&quot; button which will take a snapshot, store it somewhere<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; and put it as a frame in the sequencer.
<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;Have anyone done something like this? How hard would it be to do it?<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; Shaul<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; Well, you&#39;d have to write platform-specific webcam interfacing code,
<br>&gt; &gt; which would be kindof annoying.<br>&gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; However, blender is most definitely not meant as a photography-based<br>&gt; &gt; stop motion animation suite :)<br>&gt; &gt; That&#39;s not the purpose of blender, so I highly doubt something like what
<br>&gt; &gt; you suggest will ever happen;<br>&gt; &gt; *unless* theres some additional benefit to doing it.<br>&gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; Joe<br>&gt; &gt; _______________________________________________<br>&gt; &gt; Bf-committers mailing list
