OK, my last Christmas present to the forum in 2022.
I’ve put together an HTML file that accepts various parameters and breaks an image into tiles. Some of the parameters relate to properties than can be animated, such as opacity, scale, rotation etc. Play around with them and see what you can come up with. You need to provide it with one or more images.
I have an example below and the HTML file is also below, just remove the ‘.txt’ suffix and run it in a browser and use screen-recording software, like Sharex, to record it.
Or, run it as a “Browser Source” in OBS Studio, recording the animation and then open this clip in Shotcut.
Looks great! However I found out that it won’t work if there is a space (or spaces) in the photo’s filename (eg “photo1.jpg” will work but “photo 1.jpg” won’t) …
Sorry - my bad (as the Americans would say). I forgot to enclose the “url” parameter in quotes to handle those filenames containing these special characters.
