Re: open image sequence in quicktime

I've looked around for an answer to this, but I can't seem to find
anything relating to opening a sequence of tif files (or any other
image format for that matter) in QuickTime Pro.  I've tried with the
script below, and I've tried setting the pictureFile to just the
directory where the tif files reside - the Applescript activates
QuickTime, but doesn't open any files - nor does it produce an error...

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Cheers,
Andrina

set pictureFile to "Macintosh HD:path:to:file.tif"
tell application "QuickTime Player"
	activate
	open image sequence pictureFile
end tell

This works for me (where the file I choose is the first image in the sequence):


set firstImage to choose file with prompt "Pick the first image file."
tell application "QuickTime Player"
	open image sequence firstImage
end tell

beware of line breaks.
