<p><b>New page</b></p><div>From Pymol build 1.2 onwards , pymol allows you to build movies directly from scenes defined using the "Scene-Append menu item".<br />
To do this you will create the scenes combining the views and representations you want and then use the command the command "Movie" - Program - Scene loop - Y rock , then pick a time for which the given scene should rock between camera interpolations .<br />
<br />
This assumes that you have [http://freemol.org/ freemol] installed and configured and available on your path.<br />
Failing which you can always save the images and make the movie externally. This very convenient functionality makes movie making a pretty WYSIWYG process.<br />
<br />
To quote Warren from a recent pymol newsgroup post<br />
<br />
<br />
''Assuming that you are using the most recent PyMOL 1.2 beta build, first create a Scene for each display you wish to show. <br />
<br />
(To do that, show everything the way you want and then select “Append” from the “Scene” menu. Repeat the process for each view / color / representation you wish to show. You can PgUp / PgDown through defined Scenes.)<br />
<br />
Then, to create the movie, select “Program -> Scene Loop -> Y-Rock -> # seconds each” from the “Movie” menu.<br />
<br />
Now you can write out the movie as either a series of PNG files or an MPEG file using “Save Movie As…” from the “File” menu.<br />
Using scenes to create movies is a lot easier than messing around with scripts : )!<br />
Cheers,<br />
