Append find result to txt file

I am trying to concat jpg and png images with the use of ffmpeg. Before doing so, I am trying to append the file name and paths to a txt file. However, I am getting an error. The files have to follow the format file '/media/test.jpg' for appending to the txt file. What would be the best way to achieve this?

Print files:

find . \( -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.png' \) -print

Error when trying this:

find . \( -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.png' \) printf "file '%s'\n"  > mylist.txt
