Usage Instructions

An animation can be generated using the rotate.py or transform.py file.

rotate.py

Arguments:

python3.7 rotate.py <input_image.png> <output_file.mp4>

transform.py

Arguments:

python3.7 transform.py <input_image.png> <output_file.mp4> optional: <transform_type>

Transform Types:

0: rotation

1: vertical flip

2: horizontal flip

3: vertical+horizontal flip

For both these files:

Valid output formats include .m4a .mp4 .mov .avi

The image needs to have NxN dimensions where N is a power of 2. If these requirements are not met, the program can automatically resize the image to the closest power of 2.
