Abstract
A method and an apparatus for generating a stop-motion animation, a computer readable storage medium, and a computer device. The method comprises: acquiring a video containing a periodic motion of a target, the video containing a preset number of continuous motion periods (S); determining an initial motion period of the target in the video by using a posture estimation algorithm (S); determining a start period node according to the initial motion period, determining subsequent period nodes according to the start period node, and for the preset number of continuous motion periods, respectively extracting, in each motion period, a video frame corresponding to the same posture, or respectively extracting, in each motion period, a video frame corresponding to a different posture in a sequential order or reversed sequential order of motion, so as to obtain a video frame sequence of the stop-motion animation (S); and generating a stop-motion animation video according to the video frame sequence of the stop-motion animation (S). The method is simple in operation, and performs frame extraction automatically using an algorithm, without the need of selecting video frames manually, greatly improving the efficiency of generating a stop-motion animation and having high robustness.
