FCM - Fractal Clip Maker

Art greatly evolved along with the computer, especially since this can create stunning virtual figures and environments. Based on math, however, fractals represent an example on how you can infinitely zoom in on an image, without quality loss. In this regard, FCM - Fractal Clip Maker wants to help you build cool animations based on fractals.

On the bright side of things, the application doesn’t need to be installed in order to function, so you’re able to use it on other computers directly from a USB flash drive. Registry entries are not modified during the process, so system stability remains intact. However, you need to be sure that the target PC is fitted with Java Runtime Environment.

Most of the interface space is fitted with an interactive preview area to help you easily navigate through fractals. You can open up a default Mandelbrot or Julia set, or even load an existing fractal file. Each zoom iteration is saved in a side panel and represents a frame in your new animation. You have the liberty of editing and arranging them as you see fit.

You can open up existing images to be included in your animation, but also to save either the selection or entire strip. The animation can be set to cycle and continuously play. There’s an animation preview possibility without actually building it, and this is shown in the interactive preview section.

The animation greatly enhances your work, creating a fluent zoom effect by adding considerable more frames. This can take a while, but it all depends on the number of zoom iterations. In terms of export, you can build a movie file starting from a set of images, and defining output quality and parameters.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that FCM - Fractal Clip Maker is a neat application which can help you create pretty powerful and mesmerizing video clips. You have complete control over the number of frames, colors, as well as the encoder used to create the clip.
