Matlab Demonstrations
My favorite Matlab demonstration was 'Convert Between Image Sequences and Video' because I recently have fallen in love with photography and film. I took a film animation class last semester and one of our assignments was to create a timelapse, where we took hundreds of still frames and then sequenced them together in a computer program to create a video. It was interesting seeing how the finished product looked depending on what interval of time you waited between taking each photo in the series. So, I find this Matlab demonstration particularly interesting because it alows you to convert between a sequences of images and video.
