Video to sound patches
A student has asked me to put some sound on some short videos for an installation that's running next week.
I will, of course, have a crack at putting something together myself, but to be honest Jitter is not my strong suit, so given the short time-scale, can anyone point me at any existing patches?
The videos are black & white, and show things like starlings flocking, sand moving on a membrane, iron filings moving under magnetic flux etc. and ideally we're looking for sound which is not far from noise, but which is clearly modulated by the motion in the videos.
I will be using some actual recordings of starlings, sand etc. but would also like mix or convolve it with something generated by the videos themselves.
Any help much appreciated
Then, have a look at Jitter Recipe #20:

You'll replace the camera input with the movies.
Thanks - that's a useful starting point.
Despite using Max for 15 years or more, I have still never really got to grips with Jitter - maybe this will inspire me to have another go!
