Number of FramesNumber of Frames

Enter the length of the animation in frames. For example, because animation is generated at 15 frames per second, a 30-frame length will run for 2 seconds.

Number of frames to pad at endNumber of frames to pad at end

Output Animation File SizeOutput Animation File Size

Select the final video size, in pixels, from the drop-down list.

Because standard video sizes are much smaller than standard image sizes, select a small output size to greatly reduce the rendering time.

StrengthStrength

Enter a value to specify the intensity of the morphing effect. A low value results in an extreme effect; a high value results in a subtle effect.

FalloffFalloff

Enter a value to specify the degree of falloff effect in the animation.

Falloff gradually decreases the intensity of the morphing effect at the edges of the images. Set the falloff at 1 to decrease the effect more abruptly. Set the falloff at 5 to decrease it more subtly.
Click OK. The animated sequence is displayed as a movie.
