550 image animation



I apologise on advance for the selfish nature of this request.

I'm working on a film where we had to make a Filemaker database with a single still image of every camera setup (slate). In the process of doing this I was able to make a sequence in the NLE which had a single frame from every slate in scene order. When you watch it at film speed (24fps) it looks very cool.

However I would much rather put it into some form of interactive space where the images could float and scroll by, perhaps move round them in 3D using the mouse and have music effect their movement. This is purely for fun!

A tall order for sure and to add to this there are a total of 550 images I want to use. Common sense tells me I could only really achieve the display in something like After Effects, but then I loose the interactive part. Perhaps Flash? I get the feeling that would handle that number of images quite poorly too.

So, just to throw it out there, could I create a QC which could access all 550 JPEG images and animate them interactively? From what I know the Image Importer can only access one image at a time so I would need to create 550 of these. It seems more likely I would need to do it programmatically.

Many thanks for any ideas.
Mark
