Hi everyone. We've recently started creating animations for various clients and finding that the composition process can be a bit lengthy. I mean, render times aside (which we expect to take time), putting the frames of animation together and exporting them out is taking a while. Being very new to this, I was wondering what techniques people are using to actually create a final animation (be it in Flash or into a video file) from Maxwell.
We're currently importing the frames to Flash, adding audio and overlays from there and exporting as an SWF file. After that we can take it into Premier Pro and convert it into most movie types without dropping in quality (leaving us with seperate Flash and movie files). Is this a pretty standard way to generate animations? Aside from the occasional crashing that Flash does when dealing with hundreds/thousands of frames, it does get us the results we need. But any tips on streamlining this process or general talk on what program(s) you use to collate frames together and export them would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
