Advice
- Make sure your images are numbered in sequential order, the easiest way to do this is via the Bridge menu item. Select all the images and open them in Camera Raw, then choose Select All again. Click Save As, select the start value and the number of digits in the extension
- You can use Bridge (Camera Raw) to change the order of the frames, as well as to perform simple transformations, such as changing the color or exposure.
- The higher the number of frames per second, the smoother the movie will be.
