Selecting all the images by pressing the A key (a useful method, which can be implemented without problems if in the directory there are only the files we want to upload) We now select the images to be imported, we have different modes available:

Then the popup window will open to import the files and we select the directories whose path we had noted before in the properties We add the sequence of images by selecting, in the menu above the channels of the Video Sequencer, Add > Image/Sequence

When we render an animation, the files will be inserted in the directory whose path is indicated in the 'Output Properties' tab, in the Properties Window at the top right, in the 'Output' subpanel. In the top menu we select the 'Video Editing' workspace or, if it is not present, we add it by pressing the '+' button on the rightĪnd we will display the editor with the list of directories, the preview of the video, the Properties Window, the channels of the Video Sequencer and the panel with the properties of the currently selected instrument To transform the sequence of images, we will use the Video Sequence Editor (VSE), one of the many precious tools contained in Blender, which has many features in common with the best professional video editors. However, there is a need to export the video in other formats to show it to the public (in a youtube video, on a web page or even just to view them with a player) or to compress all the animation in a single file of size smaller and more compact.

When rendering an animation with Blender it is advisable not to save it immediately as a movie, but as a sequence of images (in PNG format, as it is the one with the best quality / compression ratio and is compatible with many softwares) and in order to resume rendering from a certain frame onwards in the event of a crash, both in order to divide a rendering into several parts, to be carried out comfortably in the most convenient moments. In this tutorial for Blender (updated to Blender 2.8x) we will show you how to convert a sequence of images into an mp4 video for Youtube using the Video Sequence Editor ( VSE).
