Title: Mandelbrot Zoom Animations Post by: Fractacular on March 29, 2012, 07:45:49 PM Since there's nothing here, I'll add some of my animations made with Fractal eXtreme.
Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0KSMzE_X7M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7SCxoco6vU More fractal videos of mine at http://vimeo.com/fractalexplorer (http://vimeo.com/fractalexplorer) Title: Re: Mandelbrot Zoom Animations Post by: panzerboy on August 24, 2012, 01:30:05 AM I've never seen colour cycling and zooming with Fractal Extreme.
Did you set your display to a 256-colour (8 bit) mode to get this effect? That way fractal extreme just needs to alter the palette table to cycle the colours. In 16 bit of 32 bit colour I guess it redraws all the pixels to cycle the colours.

All I did was create the movie, then play it on the pc full screen with the Cycle colours check box checked. I had my camcorder hooked to the s-video output and recorded the output. It's not the greatest, but it works...sort of. :D Title: Re: Mandelbrot Zoom Animations Post by: panzerboy on June 25, 2013, 12:19:50 AM The cycle colours checkbox will only appear if the Fractal Extreme Movie was rendered in a 256 colour (8 bit) screen mode. The Movie can be played in 32/16 bit colour mode it the rendering that's important. I've achieved a modest sized colour cycled video in this thread. http://www.fractalforums.com/fractal-exteme/making-zoom-videos-with-color-cycling/ I've used direct screen capture as I dont have a video camera nor S-video output. Probably cleaner using direct screen capture but you're limited by your CPU/Memory/Hard disk as to how large the resolution able to be captured. Ie to capture uncompressed 1080p you'd need the fastest of SSD drives, or a a very powerful CPU (GPU?) to compress on the fly. |
