Like the title suggested, I'm looking for implementing a new feature, the animation of PIDS inside the train.
Background
As a POVer, I want to add more details to my video clips. A dynamically changed info pannel is a bonus if I can put everything the viewers or the commuters need to know. Such as where the train is going and the current station.
and at 03:34 in video av28793765. The ultimate may be something like this.
And I believe there is something similar in your city.
However, manually adding and PSing these slightly different pannel is tiresome. And adding dynamic info pannel could greatly ease my life to make these videos.
Main features
The additional info pannel should make picture sequences so that video editing programs such as Adobe Primere Pro or others can make use of them. The pictures may change at different t and these are automatically caculated by the project. All the user input are listed below.
- The duration of the video
- The frame rate of the video
- The arrival and departure time at different stations
- The terminal station (in case the train not ends at the furthest station or the line has multiple destinations/branches)
- Any additional infomation the LED inside of the train has
Technical Details
The current project supports most of core concepts the feature may use. However, some could be changed.
The terminal station
In case the train not ends at the furthest station or the line has multiple destinations/branches, the user must select the terminal station. In my plan, when the users select it, we change the state
in station. And I hope all the others will remian intact.
The additional operating tab
I'm going to add another tab in the website. All the user input will fit here.
Download multiple files
When the user hit button to export, the browser will fire multiple downloads with a number changed in each file. Thus, these can be imported to video editing programs.
The realtion between styles
The term style we refer to now and the style we used in this feature may have many-to-many relationship. For now, the easiest way is to have some additional changes on top of the current styles. However, when a newcomer who want to add a dynamic style, say JR, and who do not to waste time on the current styles in railmap. He or she may find exhausted to implement both two styles. But splitting the two styles may also seems confusing and causing additional works.
