I'm alway struggeling when trying to loop video footage (even when
camera is fixed on a tripod). You try to find a good "matching" frame or
cut in the middle and bring the end part to the beginning and vice
versa.
my helping tool of choice is the difference matte to compare 2 layers of
the same footage to find the best looping (or blending/transition)
spot.
How about a plugin/script that hels with that:
======>
this would be the way to build it (how I would do it, if I could)
- compares every picture with every other picture within the (trimmed) footage
- USE THE "DIFFERENCE" layer blending mode to lay every picture over every other one
- scan how much of the picture is black (or dark) - save -> maybe in percent
- at the end find the combination where the result has the most percentage of black
-> that should be the most similar frame to an other one to make a loop
I'm totally not into coding, really I just can't
sorry for my bad english, does anyone know what I mean
