PyMOL, from first launch to a finished animation

Eight short lessons taking PyMOL from first launch to a rendered animation. No prior structural biology needed: if you can find a PDB file, you can follow along.

Work through them in order the first time. After that they stand alone well enough to use as reference.

  1. Getting started

  2. The interface

  3. Selecting and colouring a molecule

  4. Exporting images and video

  5. Aligning molecules

  6. Measuring distances

  7. Creating scenes

  8. From scene to video
