Hi everyone,
I'm new here and I have a question. :blush:

I have to make a movie with 3Danimation in it, so now I have the movie and I made a lot of stills of every scene (well ok my teacher did that for me).
I know I can use an imageplane and put my model in front of it, but now I want to see all those images when I press play in the timeline, so I can see how my animation looks in the movie.
How am I going to do that? ^^

do you mean having an .avi play on a plane in your scene? When you go to attach a file to your material color, you'd choose "movie" instead of "file" and choose the .avi you want.

Turn on "Use Image Sequance" and should work, assuming the .avi in question isn't encoded weird.
