How to edit individual frames of a movie.

[korrupt]

Hey guys,

I have this short movie (3 odd seconds) that I need to edit every frame of. After these frames have been edited, I need to be able to play it again. I have photoshop. Would I need any other programs for it, or would this do? Also, how would I do this the easiest?

Regards,

You could use VirtualDub to save every frame as a image sequence and take every frame (image) and edit. But even is 3 second thats a lot of work.
After your editing u can use VirtualDub to "recompile" the movie again.
The other method is to use the avi import plugin for The Gimp and see from there how to do it. It's working only with uncompressed avi files, but for 3 seconds is not that much, IMHO.
Maybe is there a plugin for photoshop, I don't know.
I heard about Cinepaint, but the Windows version is very old and I don't know how to use it. Yet!
Hope this helps!

Peace out!

Basically I NEED to use photoshop to do this, so yeh, I'll probably have to extract every frame and edit them individually

Also I need to keep the sound as well...

Any more ideas?

well..

it would be about 90 frames
if you have video editing software you would just drag n drop the frames into the video track and use some other software to extract audio from the orignal
