I'm not much of a postproduction guy, 95% of my work is purely character animation, but every once in a while I have to actually take stuff out of Flash and edit it. Right now I'm working on my new demo reel.

So I'm apparently terrible at getting stuff from Flash to a .mov file. I feel like I have all the correct things like frame rate, etc, and I barely compress it. But every single time if it's a complicated scene I get boatloads of dropped frames and whatever. The video just chugs. And I've tried every combination of settings I can think of.

Usually I just get frustrated and export the whole thing as a .png sequence, and then when I re-assemble the stuff in Quicktime I don't have the same problems.

Any advice on what I'm doing wrong here?

This.

As far as I understand, Flash is just a piece of shit and these things just happen to everyone.

yeah, avoid using flash to export any QT's ever. it never works the way you want it. just export it as a .png sequence and reassemble in after effects or whatever editing software you use.

Hahaha...thanks, guys. I'm actually kinda happy to know it's not my fault. Screw Apple and screw Adobe.
