Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping

In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Really liked Michael McKinley's render global videos. Anyway, I saved a movie as an MPEG to a folder and it plays as a video without any trouble. The MPEG video is represented as a single icon in the folder I saved it to. When I save the file as a Targa I get a set of Targa images rather than a sequentially playing set of images. How do I convert my targa single images so they play as a video.

I like the video mach editor. Really simple and user-friendly.

Thanks, Mt. McKinley...

I just figured it out. I feel pretty stupid now. I forgot to go back into my folder where the targa images are and save those as a single file. All I had to do was click the output icon in Video Mach and tell it to save images as a single AVI, video only file, and start saving with the first Targa image.

Thanks 3deeder for asking the question and finding the answer yourself.

Video Mach is only $29 something and you can at least learn how to render a movie and use the program.

I have no personal or professional interest in Video Mach I just thought it a cheap program to allow me to at least see my video.

I may later move to Adobe After Effects.
