I recently created a video of the music to Reverie scrolling by horizontally aligned to the audio (Steve Park gave me permission to use the audio from his youtube video). Here's an overview of how I made it:
- Set the music on one wide line with no breaks and no headers/footers. - Convert it to a high density raster image. * Keeping it as PDF would be better, but this was easier for later steps. - Mark each beat in the image (list of pixel offsets from left edge). - Mark each beat in the audio (list of millisecond offsets from the beginning of the audio). * My method of doing this was pretty crude: listen to the file and record the times when I hit the spacebar. - Create each frame aligning beats and interpolating frames between the beats. * I used linear interpolation. I'd like to use a different interpolation method to make it less jerky. * I used Xuggler to draw each frame and combine it with the audio. This way I didn't need to keep a huge directory of frames and could create the video in one step. Anyway, I thought it was a nice way to watch the score and might be of some interest here. I at least like it better than the regular chopped up scores that are prevalent on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iv7k0GLjXLE -----Jay _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
