Experiment. learn new tools. the following are a series of experiments I did when I first started exploring an isight iMac with quartz composer, a node-based visual programming language for open-gl effects. all movies are around motion detection, and video interferences.
If you are a visual artist with a mac and an iSight camera, I recommend playing with quartz composer for a fun time. Below are the source files for the projects:
gostei muito disso, a primeira e segunda partes principalmente! vou olhar o resto.

nice ideas. like it.
how did you record your stuff? the quartz composer has no component to do this…
greetings,

tom: unfortunately quartz composer doesn’t record so I had to use a screenrecorder. I tested many and alhtough it wasn’t my favorite (like snapzpro) I ended up with the low budget ScreenTool.
I am uploading the source files if you wish to play with the compositions..

Awesome work man thanks for sharing!! I’m new at Quartz and any sort of programming in general so stuff like this really helps my learning. I am getting an error though….16:02:50.870 [”Video Input” @ “Video Input”] > Sequence grabber settings restoration failed (error -2004) …..where do I go to to address this? I looked at some compression seetings in the video input but that seemed to drop the image out completely. Cheers again though, this stuff really helps! Peace, Joel
