I've been trying to figure out how to convert images into videos for my edits focused on the Universe for the last year and a half. I'm inspired by shows like Stranger Things, Shameless, and the Avengers. It's been pretty frustrating, and I'm looking for some guidance. If anyone has tips, videos, photos, or even step-by-step instructions, I would really appreciate it! Thanks in advance!

Just to clarify, are you looking to animate still images or are you trying to create something with narration over them? You might want to check out the Ken Burns effect, which can add some nice motion to your photos!
You can use software like Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, which are great for this kind of project. If you prefer free options, you might want to check out CapCut or Shotcut. Just import your images, arrange them on the timeline, add transitions, and then export it as a video. It's pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it!
I also recommend trying out ffmpeg if you're comfortable with command line tools. It's really powerful for video processing, but it can be a bit daunting at first. Just make sure to look up some tutorials to get started!
I don’t really know much about command line tools. Can you give a simple example of how it works?
