okay bestie, welcome to the stopmotion glow-up page — this is the General Commands Manual entry for stopmotion, and we're about to make stop-motion animation make sense. 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

stopmotion — a program for creating stop-motion animations. yes, literally the whole point. it's giving ✨motion picture magic✨.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

stopmotion [--nonGUI <options>] file

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, real talk: this manual page is the short version — it briefly introduces the program and documents the commands you can use when you're running it in non GUI mode. iykyk. 🫶

stopmotion is a program for creating stop-motions animations from couple of images. 🎬 like, you take a bunch of pics and it turns them into a whole animation. iconic behavior.

you can use your favourite video device for grabbing the images as long you have a program capable of doing it. you just sets stopmotion to use the program. and it's also possible to do the same with video export. the way that works is you point it at whatever tool you already love and it handles the rest. no cap.

and stopmotion has a set of tools which helps you creating the movements smooth and precise. ✨ smooth. precise. the dream combo. obsessed.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

stopmotion follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`--'). heads up though — this part of the program is under construction and not yet fully usable. 🙈 it's a work in progress bestie, we're all just vibing.

a summary of options is included below:

• -a DIR, --addFrames=DIR — Creates a new project containing the images located in DIR (e.g. /foo/bar)
