Time-lapse

[dennisa33021358]

Hi.  Am looking for the ability to take several hundred images and turn them into a mp4 video clip.  Question.  Does Premier Elements 2018 have the ability to create time-lapse video?  If not, can any photoshop product do time-lapse?  Can I buy a stand alone copy, or do I need to get a monthly subscription?

You can certainly set Premiere Elements up to show each for a given length of time -- 1/30 of a second for instance. You just go to the Preferences and set Still Duration BEFORE you import the photos into your project.

Premiere Elements is not a subscription purchase. It's a one-time-and-forever purchase.

In addition to Steve's point about setting the duration, the other "trick" is to be sure you have a file naming scheme that will retain the order as shot.

Thanks.

Elements has the ability to import a bunch of stills as an image sequence which in fact is a movie and not separate stills.

This means the stills need to be consecutive numbered (e.g. 001.jpg, 002.jpg etc)

Select the first image, check Numbered Still at the bottom and Open.
