Combining my scene .png files

utor

Hello,

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I don't see it when searching the forum.

I've created a scene with many png files.  What are people using to combines these?  I'm assuming movie making software.  is there a list of recomendation someone can point me too? 

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean? Have you rendered an animation to an image sequence, or are these different groups of items from a single scene rendered separately for performance? In the latter case any image editor should be able to open the PNGs as transparent layers which you can then stack (as long as they don't all have a background object making them non-transparent).

Davinci Resolve - there is free version available:

But this is a beast of a software that does much more than just converting image sequences into a movi file -> steep learning curve.

I use shotcut - it's quite a comprehensive video editting package, including the ability to turn a sequence of PNG files into a video file: https://shotcut.org/
