Is there any software out there that'll make a movie from a bunch of sequential photos?

Thanks!

How about photo to movie? It's $50. I just read a review of it yesterday; reviewer said the price will prevent it from being an impulse buy, but it does a nice job. There are some quirks to it, but it works better than iphoto for the job.

I'm not exactly sure if this is what you're looking for, though.

idvd does it too and authors straight to dvd. Don't add music though or it will jitter in a dvd player.

If you just want to make a quick movie, you could just use quicktime and load an image sequence. Just number the images like picture001, picture002 etc. and do quicktime->load image seq->select the first one. Then choose a few seconds per frame.

Nice! I tried that but I didn't know how to properly number the files. Thanks!

QuickTime Pro will do it both ways.

Still Life by granted software is a nice app that goes a bit further than ken burns.

If you are using 10.4.x, you can get or make an Automator Finder plug-in to rename files sequentially.
