This video looks at how to use the saveFrame() function to render a video from a Processing sketch.

How do you teach so well? You're style of teaching clicks so well with me, it's crazy! Wish you were my teacher, so grateful to have your channel available to me.

[edgarfabianfrias]

just want to say how grateful I am for you! I am an artist taking a coding/electro-art making class right now and your videos have been such a game changer for me! so appreciate you!!

If only everything was explained so directly....I'm watching these videos and making progress by the minute. Brilliant.

It's just so helpful! I'm so happy you are here. Thank you, thank you for everything!

Hello from South Korea!
Thank you always!👍
Thanks to you, I can learn easily and get to know in detail.
You solved my problem!  
My professor always talks about you and recommends your 'Learning Processing'book. I'll wait for more lectures on Processing :)

It really looks like programmers are real life wizards.

thanks man. I'm learning java in my IB class right now so i'm totally going to use your tutorials

Just a side note, there's an extremely robust cli program called ffmpeg(if this helps, it's like image magick but for videos) and it can do the same thing. the advantage is it can convert to pretty much any video format your can think of and has done advanced options like overlays (in the same way learning gimp/Photoshop is useful, learning ffmpeg and image magick pays off a lot)

Huuuuge thanks. I searched for solution to save animation since yesterday and all I found was advice to render video right in program using ffmpeg(I make project in c++ on Linux). But this solution is super simple and fast to implement.❤❤❤❤❤

Awesome just implemented this to help me produce some better quality animation - love your videos it has helped me learn Processing and now i'm making some of my own videos using it :)

Amazing your videos! I’m just starting on and I founded your content super nice! Great teaching ✨✨

1000 hugs ... ;-) ! is there a Nobel prize for teaching ... ?

Sorry to be pedantic but PNG is technically compression, but it's just lossless compression which will compress the image file as much as it can without losing any detail from the image.

How do i handle it when i want to record video and audio output from processing?

[deadmusik]

THANK you dan :D, i can now save without having to go back to the sketch and rename the 1, 2, 3, 4 etc. .... @ 3:08

Thank you for this; However, I still experience a little bit of trouble on my side, I am trying to export a video from a code that is audio reactive (the export will be a music video), and when I run the code for 3.38min (length of the track), it works but the output is only 30 sec or so.. I understand that it "slows down" when the code is saving frame while running but since the visuals are linked to the sound in "real time" it is a problem for me... Any idea how to fix this? I would highly appreciate.

[syruptree]

Nice video! I never knew about the save("blah.png"); lol. Please keep rolling out amazing videos! :D

[danthemancasey]

Very cool!! Super awesome!! Super thank you!!
