You may or may not need to edit the music.

You just need to credit him appropriately if you use the music. I found what I was looking for at, where Kevin MacLeod has published a large number of tunes. This page has a list of links to various sites with royalty free music. It turns out that there exists quite a bit of music released under a Creative Commons license. SoundtrackĪ video is more interesting to view if it has some sound. As soon as I set any of the crop values to higher than 0, the resulting video file came out empty. Since the cropping and scaling was done using Irfanview we do not have to worry about it here, which is good since I could not figure out how the cropping features here worked.

The only window in the program “Images to video”Īfter setting up this dialog, you just press Convert and after a (relatively short) while, a video file pops out. The program needs no installation and has a single window (it can also be used from the command line). I found a wonderfully unbloated and straightforward – yet functional – tool to do the conversion from JPEGs to an mp4 video, namely “ Images to video“. Advanced batch processing options in Irfanview. Select files here and click on Advanced to set up the cropping and scaling. I had to crop from 2144×1424 to 2144×1206 (to get the 16:9 aspect ratio) and then I also let Irfanview rescale to 1920×1080 and place the resulting files in a subdirectory. I found this tutorial that explains how to do it, but basically you just select File -> Batch Conversion/Rename, add the files you want to crop, click “Advanced batch conversion settings” and set up all the relevant parameters there. I had the excellent free (image) viewer Irfanview already installed and it turns out that it is the perfect tool for batch cropping and rescaling of photos. Here is how I did it on a computer running Windows 7: Cropping and rescaling

Add some title text before the main video and some more text after it.

(Edit the music to fit the length of the video.).

Find some suitable free music to use as soundtrack.

Assemble and code the images into an MPEG 4/H.264 file at 30 fps.

Crop the images to 16:9 format (and also scale them down to 1920×1080).

After all, this is just a minor hobby project.Īfter some iterations, these are the steps I went through to produce a video: I have hardly worked at all with video before and turned to Google to figure out how I could accomplish some results without buying expensive commercial software. So here comes the part that was most difficult for me and where I had to learn a couple of new things. This post is about going from there to creating a video. The previous post was about building the hardware for a remote release timer, programming it and capturing a (large) number of JPEG files.
