71 clips of 50 sec each, interval 3 minutes. Exposure 9ms, gain 240. Histogram 60%. Novosibirsk, city center, balcony. According to the chat bot forecast "3".
1. Autostakkert! 71 clips, stacking from 6 to 55%.
2. Registax. Preliminary rotation, correction, wavelets.
3. WinJUPOS. 57 intervals, 14 images in each. Each next interval is shifted by one image. As a result, I get 57 frames. Since I shot with satellites, masking them is a pleasure.
4. Photoshop. Without automation, everything would be very sad.
5. VEGAS. I assemble a sandwich on four tracks, video from 57 stacks with project parameters 1920x1080 29.97 fps, Jupiter's scale preserved. For the screensaver, I added flickering stars, they are the only ones in the project that are not mine, let them be... For the screensaver, to avoid "burning" pixels, I smoothly zoom the background and return it to the state of the first frame (for seamless looping). On the timeline, the transition between images is 9 frames, I apply deformation using optical morphing. Result: 513 frames, which corresponds to 17 seconds of video.
6. PIPP. From the resulting video, I make a gif with a crop.
