Can GIMP make a GIF Shake? - Mark2855 - 02-03-2022

Like, in a GIF with 20 frames, morphing from a dog to a cat,
both the First and Last frames might show for one entire second.  
I'd like Frames 2 thru 19 (each for 0.1 seconds) to "shake", like in an earthquake.
Can GIMP make that happen?
Thanks, people.

Gimp can do a lot of things if you are willing to do some hand editing Smile  Earthquake effect & automatic ? There might be a plugin somewhere.  For example you might be able to replace the morph with a transition effect dog to cat.

I can throw this in as a starter, Cat to Dog morphed (somewhat) over 20 frames. Then the intermediate frames with a effect applied using a Gimp plugin gmic from http://www.gmic.eu The advantage of this is the same effect can be applied over a number of frames. Looks like this.

To get some variation, applied to odd numbered frames (visibilty on) the settings changed then applied to even numbered frames.

At that point you would be better off with a video editor and a decent special effects palette, and then convert the video to GIF at the end.
