You could reduce your question to: "Code not working." and there would be as much information as you have already provided.

You also do not mention, what you did, with what API interface, or define what you want to achieve other than 'glitter'.

For some glitter examples using the command line API see

Try adding the correct -delay {time in centi-seconds} as well as -loop 0
see IM examples animation basics for more details on this options.

DO NOT use a delay of 0. It is a very bad practice for animations, unless you really mean 'instant delay' (so fast you don't want to see it).
