time-lapse making-of video's of directly in Affinity.

[Willem Pirquin]

Today I was thinking about a totally non-essential function, but a very nice-to-have that seems very possible to me.

I think it would be great if we where able to make time-lapse making-of video's of our work directly in Affinity.

 

Since there is an unlimited history, it should be possible to write a script that returns one step and writes the image to a folder for every step in the history-list. Then it's only a matter of stitching these images together in reverse-order as a .mov and there you have your timelapse-movie. The second part can even be done in Automator as long as we would be able to generate the png-sequence.

I know this is not an essential task at all, but I think it would be great to be able to show the world how we do things in Affinity. Having this function could generate considerably more buzz online.

 

Anyway, I hope you like the idea!

Agree. The unlimited history is fantastic for making offs.

 

Another way to do it:

1/ Quicktime > New Screen Recording

2/ Go to the beginning of your history

3/ Hold ⇧⌘Z  all the way back.

Voilà! Direct to video.

+1 from me, also had this idea in mind, when I saw the document history.

 

A replay functionality where I can set a delay to switch from step to step (history entry) would be great!
