You could use FCheck to save your image sequence as a Quicktime movie on macOS. On Windows/Linux though you do not have that option.

 

That being said I wouldn't even use FCheck as it doesn't allow you to make any corrections or have many movie format options. The general industry workflow would be to import your image sequence into a video editing program like Adobe Premiere, do all your post work like colour correction etc., then save as a movie file.

thanks however if I was to go through all of my files in premiere pro I have about 4000+ so arranging would be a nightmare and I am on windows by the way i would hope that maya would have a handy way to do so

Hi!

 

In short:

 

1. You need a video application which supports image sequences

2. You need to render the images with a sequence format that is supported by the application.

 

When importing in Premiere don't forget to set the checkmark for image sequence at Import window in Premiere.

 

Just search for:

premiere image sequence

You can find a lot Tutorials in the web.

 

For further help please show you sequence naming and maybe upload 3 images to test.
