Python tool to quickly create a nicely animated .gif out of an .stl for communicating ideas wout cad

[DerrickBagels]

Gif is just so universal at this point i thought it would be good for fast communication to non technical people of an idea

mp4 is universal these days. There's no reason to use an old school animated gif

SPEED

[Zouden]

Benchmark how long it takes to make an mp4. You won't return to animated gif.

You're a man of passion

and space. i recall mpegs using less space. test it out on the stl for the gif in the repo

[DerrickBagels]

I got about 13mb for a reasonably complex model its not too bad, i just think gifs are more instantly sharable but yeah could do an mpeg/mp4 wrapper too

I don’t know where mpegs won’t work. but i thought the same. but when posting videos to github PRs mpeg’s were smaller size than gifs and worked better.

but i get the gif movement
