I have been working with digital photos for some years now and now I would like to animate them through changing abstract forms. I am using Paint Shop Pro (primarily but not limited to the kaleidoscope effect) to incrementally alter the images and then I place them in a movie program to animate the changes. Unfortunately the smallest changes I can make with kaleidoscope create a greater change than I want my animations to proceed with so that I end up getting either jerky motion or having to run the frames too fast so the movement will be smooth. Can I get some hints on how to alleviate this and with what animation software? I guess I should also ask if this is feasible with an older PC 2.4G mhz and 512 M of RAM. Thank you.
