humm, not exactly "easy-to-follow". You have to discover much by
yourself... there are some scripts available that you can start from
Regarding making the movie from a loaded molecule I used scripts
such as the following one to rotate and move:
NB the "cmd.mset("1 x360")" makes a movie by copying the molecule
360 times. this is not needed if you loaded a trajectory.
The rotations and moves are then applied to frames via the mdo commands
Once the movie is OK, save it with mpng and get a set of png files.
then make a mpg or avi file from the png files
hope this helps

==================================================
install and run pymol
load any molecule
modify the script and name it, e.g. script.py
within pymol, type run script.py
===================================================
from glob import glob
from pymol import cmd
cmd.mset("1 x360")
for i in range (1,120):
cmd.mdo("%d"%i, "turn z, 1.0; move z, 0.2")
for i in range (121,240):
cmd.mdo("%d"%i, "turn y, 1.0; move z, -0.2")
for i in range (241,360):
cmd.mdo("%d"%i, "turn x, 1.0")
=====================================================
