Example Usage • Option Summary

Use the animate program to animate an image sequence on any X server. See Command Line Processing for advice on how to structure your animate command or see below for example usages of the command.

Example Usage

We list a few examples of the animate command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use. To get started, lets animate an image sequence in the GIF format:

$magick> animate movie.gif

To animate a directory of JPEG images, use:

$magick> animate *.jpg

You can find additional examples of using animate in Graphics from the Command Line. Further discussion is available in More Graphics from the Command Line and Examples of ImageMagick Usage.

Option Summary

The animate command recognizes these options. Click on an option to get more details about how that option works.
