Looks like you are trying to re-invent the wheel. Apple has a script
that does what you are trying - all except for moving the files. You
might use their script as a template and add your file movement routine
where needed. Go to:
http://www.apple.com/applescript/qtas.html to see
the info on the "Create Slideshow From Folder" script.
Otherwise, you might want to modify using the following:
on createMovie(referenceName, referenceFolder, targetFolder,
movieNumber, frameRateVar)
try
set movieNumber to movieNumber + 1
tell application "Finder"
set movieFolder to folder (referenceName &
movieNumber as text) of targetFolder
set firstFile to file 1 of movieFolder
end tell
tell application "QuickTime Player"
open image sequence firstFile frames per second
frameRateVar
end tell
on error
return false
end try
end createMovie
