You may have noticed the new intro at the top of the show since we turned HD. It was made by Philippe with a combination of GIMP, Jahshaka and GAP, the GIMP Animation Package. As reported by Torbjorn below Jahshaka has been given a new name, CineFX: http://www.cinefx.org/ Is this a fork?

Jahshaka is a video editing and special effects tool. I looked into it as an editor when I planned this podcast and preferred then Cinelerra instead. Jahshaka has matured a lot in the last two years but is still a pain to install under most Linuxes, but it seems to be fine with Windows and OS X.

Philippe asked me to write here that this is just a short look into Jahshaka – no in depth tutorial. But I liked it a lot while I was editing the video.

And think about our two challenges! We have already some entries for the photography department – but the “from scratch” area is still an empty canvas. Well, it takes more time dto do something from scratch and the challenge is open up to September 9th.

[Gimp-user] ANNOUNCE: GIMP Animation Package 2.4.0 and GIMP 2.4.4

GAP, the GIMP Animation Package, is a collection of plug-ins
to extend GIMP with capabilities to edit and create animations as
sequences of single frames.

Version 2.4.0 of the GIMP Animation Package is now available. This is a
bug-fix release that makes GAP usable with GIMP 2.4.x releases. The
source code can be downloaded from

ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.4/gap

Users who are not familiar with building software from source code are
advised to wait for binary packages to become available.

Happy GIMPing,
Sven

No real work today – but a lot of fun with the iwarp plugin and a little bit of the GAP (Gimp Animation Package). And you get some more advice about making animations by some of the viewers.

You find Jeffegg2’s baby picture here. Still a bit of a wrinkled forehead – but definitely a smile.

The GAP tutorial at gimp.org has more informations about GAP.

Don’t forget to make a panorama and put it into the photogroup!
