Hi- wondering what is the best way to compile animation images rendered in poser.  I have rendered my animation as images, then I tried to compile them in pinnacle studio video program (I am full aware this program is low level).  Anyway, I am not sure what the best way is to make the video animation from the images- pinnacle added way too many artifacts when rendered as avi.

-how many seconds, or tenths of seconds should each frame be in order to create a non jumpy animation?

-what is the best way to change speed throughout the animation- before compiling, or after?

-should I render the animation in my video program and then change speed to my liking after importing the rendered video?

-what program is best to do this?

-I rendered as TIF - should I change the format for compilation?

I have photoshop, and macromedia suite- will these help me?

Thanks a lot for any help, I just got a new job teaching drawing at a new media college, and I have my first class this Thursday and am trying to quickly throw together an animation that looks good to tie together with story-boarding  - so far my images look good, but I need to compile them with a good final result.  I am pretty excited about the job- they will pay for me to learn 3DSMAX in order to teach it and I am trying to make a good first impression, even if I am only using poser.

thanks!!
