Dragon Frame alows them to have a control of entire shot, to run camera is just one part. i am not Animation expert, i am DoP but i work a lot wit animators, so i learned thing or two. Yes you can do it that way but its really primitive workflow and you cant have any motion control.

I could have used my Canon DSLR, but it doesn't have the DR of the BMCC so I was willing to put up with the extra steps I guess. One annoying thing though is each DNG is in it's own folder on the disk, so you have to first get all the DNGs out of the individual folders before combing them. This way I ended up with 1 DNG per frame just like if you used a DSLR. All I did was put it in time lapse mode and RAW, then just hit the record button once to grab a single frame, and then once again to stop recording. I'm definitely no stop motion pro, but I did make one little stop motion film using the BMCC. Let me know if you find some magic formula PLEASE all that just because Dragon Frame didnt support single live action camera and then on top of that i will need to change a lens to any Anamorpic (Iscorama or some patch work ) that has EF or Nikon mount. Things are not looking good for me! first i need to make a huge compromise and accept DSLR with Magic Lantern as my live action camera. This is complicating my life big time! problem is also that my animation crew is insisting on DF and also because producer has motion control rig that only works with DF there is no way around. i have two more problems then you:ġ) i am switching between Stop motion and live action and therefore DSLR is out of questionĢ) my lens is PL anamorphic and i cant fit that in a DSLR unless i get PL converted 7d yes you can use it but you cant shoot RAW. i talked to several experts and no there is no way to incorporate BM in to Dragon Frame. This is do funny! i am about to start a production on a animated sto-mo and i am looking i exact same thing.
