I do believe Syrp could and probably will add DF4 support as many already have, Edelkrone being one of the most recent to announce it. The software allows the user to manipulate the camera and the scene, and then to combine the frames into a sequence of animated frames. Additional hardware add-ons can be connected for controlling lighting and camera movement. So, in this case, they did not save time since they had to use an external app to control the motion. To create basic stop motion animations, the software controls a digital camera. So using Syrp for the actual motion was just for the sake of it, any other slider that would have connected directly to DF4 would have worked better and saved them time. If you have seen the stop-motion movie Coraline, then you have witnessed a product of.

Granted for those who are less technical it might be a big undertaking, but anyone who is interested in moco needs to have a certain level of technical curiosity, to begin with.īottom line, there are plenty of other off the shelf hardware solutions that are supported in DF4 through Arduino Moco protocol or their own protocols, and some even for live motion.Ĭognisys, Emotimo, Kamerslider, Dito, Edelkrone to name a few. Dragonframe is an industrial-grade stop motion animation software. The slider itself is easily built by off the shelf hardware in any size you need. Not really hard to make Arduino controller the hardware is super easy to put together and the code is free and is uploaded to the Arduino with a push of a button,
