Stop-Motion Quark to InDesign Animation Demonstration
This is a cool stop motion animation, following-up on the FlightCheck vs Stickman video we did earlier: Animate. This is a stop-motion animation that was made by an intern at Markzware’s European office in The Netherlands (Europe). His name is Chris Starrenburg and he is from the Grafisch lyceum in Rotterdam where he is learning to become a graphic designer or as they say in Dutch, een grafisch vormgever. There were countless hours of drawing, cutting and pasting the interfaces of page-layout application Adobe InDesign, the Google search page, FireFox web browser on a Mac, QuarkXPress, the Mac OS X and last but not least, the YouTube interface where you see an instructional video demonstration of Q2ID v4 (QuarkXPress to Adobe InDesign) plug-in embedded within the artwork, Adobe Flash and the resulting movie. The movie had to focus on the Q2IND, I mean Q2ID of course, Adobe Plugin. The Diet Coke or Coca-Cola Light spilling at the end was done with pleasure by Chris after weeks of planning, filming and taking still photographs! This video demonstrates some of the creativity that can be achieved with a free trial Q2ID trial of version Q2ID v3 ( formerly Q2ID v2 ), eh I mean Q2ID v4 trial. Q2ID for Mac trial download is available, as well as the Q2ID for win download trial version (which is the Q2ID trial for pc download). Created on a Mac with a digital video camera. Used Adobe Photoshop, Flash, iMovie and a host of other utilities and work-around’s. Remember to try the Q2ID free trial download (Q2ID plugin trial).
