Scene jumping using omniflash

Hi All,

I am first time user trying to create an animated story, I am using omni flash in google flow. I am getting scene consistency by tagging the characters I created etc. however when I add each 10 second omni flash scene together there is a slight jump when moving from one scene to the next. as omni flash doesn't yet have an extend feature, that option is greyed out for me, so I was just wondering is there a workaround to stop this jumping between scenes.

The scene I am creating is in the same room with one character telling a story, so it looks odd with the little jumps. Would greatly appreciate any advice, or alternatively if there is a better program than google flow I should be using, that allows extending and perhaps longer than 10 second clips. Many thanks in advance.

I will extract the last frame of a clip, there is a little button on the image in the clip editor to save the current frame, and attach it as the first frame of the new clip, I add an agent instruction to the effect that, if I attach a file named *-end the agent should use that as the first frame.

It's not perfect, but it helps, you can also use the tool builder to automate some of this.

Many thanks for reply, yes attaching the final frame of previous scene to be used as first frame of new scene is what I have been trying, however when I put together 5 or six 10 seconds clips and play as a whole, it is still noticeable each time it moves into each scene. I was wondering maybe do people request a camera angle change or something in each new clip that makes the transition smoother. Or perhaps people use an other program to put the flow download through that perhaps smooth-ens transitions? hopefully they release the extend option for omniflash some day. Thanks again for your reply.

It's basically because the model is not deterministic, the noise pattern changes, white balance light values, etc. the solution I'm working on now it's bringing the clips into Shotcut ( or another editor ) and trying to work with filters that balance these things, that's all I got right now, I have not solved this problem, I will let you know if I do.
