00:01 | Welcome to this tutorial on Animation using Chimera Interface. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn to : Adjust background lighting and effects. |
00:12 | Create scenes for animation. |
00:15 | Place scenes along a timeline. |
00:17 | Record a movie of the resulting animation. |
00:22 | To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with, Chimera Interface. If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website. |
00:33 | To record this tutorial, I am using : Ubuntu OS version. 14.04 , Chimera version 1.10.2 , Mozilla firefox browser 42.0 , And a working Internet connection. |
00:50 | Here I have opened Chimera window. |
00:53 | On the command text box type Open 1MBO. Press Enter. |
01:00 | A structure of hemoglobin opens on the panel. |
01:04 | Type, delete solvent to delete water molecules. Press Enter. |
01:10 | Let me demonstrate how to create a scenes for Animation. |
01:15 | A Chimera scene can have - Orientations of models and clipping planes. Display styles and colors of models. Molecular surfaces. Electron density maps and electrostatic potential maps. |
01:33 | A Scene can also have- 2D labels. Axis, plane and centroid representation. CAST-P pocket display. Parameters such as background lighting and effects. |
01:49 | Back to the panel. |
01:51 | Before we begin to create scenes for animation, let us learn to control background lighting. |
01:59 | Click on tools menu, scroll down to Viewing Controls From the sub-menu select Effects. |
02:08 | Viewing dialog-box opens. |
02:11 | In the Effects section click on depth cueing. |
02:16 | It refers to front-to-back shading. |
02:20 | Click on color well. |
02:22 | Choose a color for shading from the color well. |
02:26 | Close the color editor. |
02:29 | Click on Silhouettes to show outlines. |
02:33 | You can increase or decrease the width of the Silhouettes using Width field. |
02:39 | Click on color well. |
02:41 | Choose a color from the color editor. |
02:45 | Close the color editor. |
02:47 | Now click on Lighting button on the Viewing dialog box. |
02:51 | Here we can change the lighting parameters, according to requirement. |
02:57 | Click on Shininess button. |
03:00 | There are two options Intensity and Shininess. |
03:04 | Select Intensity. |
03:07 | Click on mode button. |
03:10 | By default two-point lighting is selected. |
03:14 | Change it to three-point for more brightness. |
03:18 | Drag the slider to adjust brightness and contrast. |
03:23 | Again, Click on Intensity button , choose Shininess. |
03:28 | Drag the slider to adjust sharpness and reflectivity. |
03:33 | Click on Save then click on Close. |
03:37 | Rotate the structure on the panel. |
03:40 | Observe the Shading and Silhouettes. |
03:43 | Let us now create some scenes for animation. |
03:47 | Click on Tools menu, scroll down to Utilities option. |
03:52 | Click on Animation from the sub-menu. |
03:55 | Animation dialog-box opens. |
03:58 | Animation dialog-box has Scenes, Actions and Timeline sections. |
04:06 | Click on the green plus icon in the Scenes section. |
04:11 | This saves the current image on the panel as a scene. |
04:15 | It also generates a thumbnail image of the Scene in the Scenes section. |
04:21 | This image is the first scene for animation. |
04:25 | Right-click on the thumbnail image, a context menu opens with options such as; Add to timeline, properties, delete etc. |
04:39 | Modify the display of the protein structure on the panel to create another Scene. |
04:45 | Using Presets menu, change the display to Interactive 1. |
04:50 | Select the ligand from Select menu. |
04:54 | From Actions menu choose Sphere. This will change the ligand to CPK display. |
05:03 | Clear the selection. |
05:06 | In the Animation dialog box, click the green plus icon from the scenes section. |
05:12 | This will add the image on the panel as scene 2. |
05:16 | For scene 3 add axes for the helices present in the structure. |
05:22 | Click on Tools menu. Scroll down to Structure Analysis option. |
05:28 | Click on Axes, Planes, Centroids from the sub-menu. |
05:32 | In the Structure measurement dialog box , click on Define Axes. |
05 :37 | In the Define Axes dialog box, click on Each helix radio button. |
05:43 | Click on OK. |
05:47 | Add this image as scene 3. |
05:50 | Click on the plus icon in the Animation dialog-box. |
05:55 | Now delete the axes. |
05:58 | In the Structure measurement dialog box, select all the rows. |
06:02 | Click on Delete button. |
06:05 | Close the Structure measurement dialog box. |
06:08 | For scene 4, select main using Select menu. |
06:15 | Show the surface using Actions menu. |
06:17 | Again select main from the Select menu. |
06:21 | Change the color of the surface to yellow using Actions menu. |
06:26 | Select Ligand and change the color of the ligand to blue. |
06:32 | Clear the selection. |
06:35 | Add this scene as scene 4 on the Animation dialog-box. |
06:40 | To show the substrate pocket more clearly, make the surface transparent. |
06:46 | Click on Actions menu, scroll down to surface. |
06:50 | From the sub-menu choose transparency. Click on 50%. |
06:58 | Add this scene as 5th scene on the scenes section. |
07:03 | If you want to delete a scene from the Scenes section; |
07:07 | Right-click on the thumbnail image, select delete option. |
07:13 | To add a scene, again click on plus icon. |
07:18 | Insert the scenes on Timeline section, by drag and drop method using mouse button. |
07:25 | Click on thumbnail image, drag and place the image on the timeline. |
07:32 | Release the mouse button. |
07:34 | Alternatively we can right-click on the thumbnail. |
07:38 | Select add to timeline option from contextmenu. |
07:43 | Add all the scenes to the Timeline in a sequence. |
07:47 | In the Actions section there are 2 options; |
07:51 | Rock- for oscillating motion. Roll- for continuous motion. |
07:57 | Let us choose Roll. |
07:59 | Now we are ready to record this animation. |
08:03 | Click on Record button. |
08:06 | Record animation dialog-box opens. |
08:13 | I will choose Desktop to save the file. Give a file name in the File name text box. |
08:17 | Type the file name as Animation hyphen one (Animation-1). |
08:21 | Select file type as .ogv or any movie format of your choice. |
08:28 | Click on Record button to start recording the animation. |
08:33 | The series of images will be encoded into a movie file on the desktop. |
08:42 | If you want to abort the recording process; Click on the Record button again on the Animation dialog box. |
08:49 | It will take a few minutes to complete the recording process. |
08:54 | The file will be saved as Animation hyphen one (Animation-1) on the desktop. |
09:01 | Double-click on the .ogv file to view the animation. |
09:14 | Let's summarize, In this tutorial we have learnt to Adjust background lighting and effects. Create scenes for animation. |
09:23 | Place scenes along a Timeline. Record a movie of the resulting animation. |
09:30 | As an assignment Open a model of Chymotrypsin (PDB code: 7GCH). |
09:35 | Adjust background and lighting effects. |
09:38 | Adjust transparency to show ligand inside the protein surface. |
09:43 | Create a few scenes and make animation movie. |
09:47 | This video summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project. If you do not have good bandwidth, you can download and watch it. |
09:55 | We conduct workshops using Spoken Tutorials and give certificates. Please contact us. |
10:03 | The Spoken Tutorial Project is funded by NMEICT, MHRD Government of India. |
