Animation of a rotating diamond structure. Created in RasMol 2.7.2.1.1 using diamond.pdb and the following commands: GUI options were: Options->Specular, Display->Ball & Stick Then, in the command line: background white color grey write diamond-000.gif set write true script script.txt where script.txt was a separate text file in the same directory, consisting of the same two repeating lines: rotate y 03 write diamond-001.gif rotate y 03 write diamond-002.gif rotate y 03 write diamond-003.gif ... from 001 up to 119 (for a total of 120 images when combined with diamond-000.gif). This was then loaded in Adobe ImageReady, cropped to dimensions divisible by 8 (264x192), exported as this animated GIF , which was then converted to an Ogg Theora video with the ffmpeg2theora command: ffmpeg2theora -x 264 -y 192 -v 10 filename.gif
