    Hey guys,

    So I have to do an animation for an ICT Award I won a while ago, it was working all good, until the software I was using crashed, that being CrazyTalk Animator... Anyway, I managed to make the characters mouth move to the .wav file I had and save it into a .png sequence... I've started to redraw it all in Adobe Flash, and moral of the story, there is 5401 .pngs in a folder of each movement of the mouth for the character, trying to import these into either Photoshop or Flash crashes it. Is there any software that would allow me to add all 5000+ images and it creates a transparent animation, video file or something that is just one complete file ready to import into the Flash stage? Keeping in mind it MUST be transparent, otherwise it'll look odd.

    TIA.

    -Joel.

    So do you want to make a video of those 5000 files? I think any respectable video aplication like premiere, vegas, edius, avid can do that. Maybe even lesser ones.

    That was my plan, but I think I've done it now. I just made a small AVI file with the clip I was producing and embedded it in Flash... Thanks for the reply.
