Artbeats Clips

Artbeats is pleased to include these clips from various Artbeats titles for your use and enjoyment. This is only a small sampling of the large volume of footage available.

The clips are included here as NTSC D1 resolution (720x486 at 30fps) QuickTime movies encoded with PhotoJPEG for maximum image quality in a useful file size. Most Artbeats titles are also available in PAL format (720x576 at 25fps) and many titles are available in other formats.

You can use these movies to composite with your digital scenes using either Maya Fusion lite or Maya Composer lite, or you can extract the images into individual frames that can be loaded as an animated texture map into Maya. The How to Extract Images from a Movie lesson shows you how to use Maya Fusion on Windows NT to accomplish this task.
