How good is cinelerra[-gg] for animation post production? I mean traditional animation taken with a camera and then has to be edited on a computer. Also, if I expect stability, how good is cinelerra-gg for that? Would I be better off with a different version of cinelerra rather than cinelerra-gg? Thank you.
Specifically for restoring animation I have evaluated my options as well. For animations you want different layers, Cinelerra has that. So you can argue, if you are able to drag photo's to a timeline, you are all set. But what Cinelerra does not really expose is the technical aspects for example one, two's, in betweens. I think you would visually want to see those aspects as well, similar to metadata within the compositor. Cinelerra is a screwdriver. But the question here: is it the right bit. I have not yet found the ideal gui for this work. -- Stefan
