Slow motion hvx 200

hi
have been out testing with the hvx 200 trying to get a slow dreamy effect in camare. whats the right way to go about it.
we chage the frame rate to 32 37 50 what the hvx 200 would let us do and the thing is all of the above came out as 50fps in fcp apart from 25 which came out as 25 fps. we are not recording to p2 card but to a firestore and i belive we don't have to do any thing there or am i wrong!
ok taking the fottage into motion and using timeramp is one great way to go but in camare is all ways best. any tips would be great to recive on how to do it.
cheers

Are you trying variable frame rates on the same drive (firestore)? If so, I think you have to shoot your slow mo stuff on to the firestore then off load the footage and switch back when you have what you need.
...If I read your question right.

Can I shoot slow motion on HVX-200 keeping 1080i/24P without FCP Conversion

I've been reading many threads, but haven't figured if you can actually shoot true 1080i/24P on my HVX-200 with menu frame rate set to 60fps/shutter 60fps. The times I've tried it shows 24P in the menu frame rate and will not playback on the P2 in true slow motion so I can import into FCP slow motion at 1080i/24P without conversion.
From everything I've seen it shows it has to be in 720/24P with menu frame rate at 60fps/shutter 60fps which will let it playback on the P2 in slow motion.
Any suggestions? We want to shoot everything in 1080i/24P but see instant playback in slow motion without conversion mostly for music videos.
Thanks, Paul

You can't. 720p is the only format that is 60fps. 1080i is 30fps.

Correct. You can only shoot in-camera slow motion at 720p60, using the 24p setting. And this is also the way to shoot so you can slow it down later with Cinema Tools or in FCP. It must be 720p60. Again, 1080i is 30fps only. Even 1080p...30fps with DVCPRO HD.

Sorry, if you want to shoot smooth slow motion, you need to shoot 720p. If you must shoot 1080p, then you need to invest in good post slow-motion options, like Twixtor.

HVX footage shot at 720p50 for slow motion...how do i???

Hi
I'm shooting some test slo-mo footage on my HVX (PAL).
I've shot as 720p and a frame rate of 50 and when I import it into FCP the footage shows 50 frames per second now how do I get that into a 25 frames per second time line and thus in slow motion?
Hope someone can help!

Ok figured this out. Use cinema tools and conform footage to 25fps.

Slow motion problem

I'm using Shake's adaptive re-timing, but when I set the video to anything less than .5 speed (like .33, or .15) the rendered footage looks jerky and jitters back and forth when it interpolates the frames.
I don't think this could be due to the deinterlacing, because it's the same despite what I set the deinterlacing to.
MacBook Pro 17" Core 2 Duo 2.33 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8) 200 GB HD

Retiming techniques have their limits. You can get optimal results beetween 0 and 50 percent max (normal speed to half speed). After that limit, the software doesn't have enough informations to reconstruct the huge time gaps between two frames, especially if the footage represents a high speed movement.
Keep in mind that the retiming possibilities are for retiming, not for slow motion, there is no miracle at this point.
For slow motion videos, use high speed cameras. Most DVCproHD cameras have the ability to record at 60fps full frame, that's a good start.
For interlaced video, if you accept to loose image quality on the vertical resolution, the 25i format can be converted in a sort of 50p, that's not bad for low budget projects!

Slow Motion troubleshooting

Hey so I have been trying to use the slow motion feature for a few clips but either the whole clip doesnt work or some of it gets cut off. It works as a preview, but once it renders it doesn't work right. I've tried everything, returning the clips to their original size, one clip at a time, but same results. If it works for the preview how come it doesnt work when rendered? Is there any way around it?

I'm having problems with rendering slow motion effects on a dvd project. I just switched from PC and the sales people assured me that Imovie would work. So far its not even as good a basic PC software called Ulead. Anyone else dealing with this and found a solution. Am I destined to purchase Final Cut Express? Another $200-

Capturing 24p from the HVX-200

I just filmed some footage, with the Panasonic HVX-200. I filmed in 480/24p on a tape. when capturing it in FCP do I choose DV50-NTSC 24p, or DV-NTSC 24p in the easy set up menu? I think its DV50, Im just not 100% sure. IF anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it.

Yup...pretty sure...
#23 Differences between 24p and 24pA
Shane's Stock Answer #23
Quoting Ken Stone's site found at:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/24p_in_FCPnattress.html
24p Normal
When shooting in 24p Normal, the camera is adding normal standard 3:2 pulldown to the video, which results in 24p footage designed to work with any non-linear editing suite and it will play back and look good directly to any NTSC monitor. You can use 24p Normal footage just like normal video from any DV camera, and everything will work fine, but obviously, the footage will have a film look to it. If you’re just going straight back to NTSC video tape, then using 24p Normal is the simplest, easiest workflow. No special treatment of the footage is needed and you really can just edit as normal.
24p Advanced
Before you shoot 24p Advanced, you should fully understand it’s workflow implications. If you watch 24p Advanced footage before you’ve removed it’s pulldown, then it will look a bit jumpy and jerky. This is totally correct, because 24p Advanced is not designed to be viewed as is.
To use 24p Advanced and gain all it’s advantages, you should know that you cannot edit it as is (as this would leave it’s jerky looking pulldown intact), but you must first remove it’s pulldown. Final Cut Pro will do this for you, leaving you with the 24p footage without any of the extra “padding” fields that are added to make it’s frame rate 29.97fps. Now that your footage is 23.98fps, it must be edited on a 23.98fps timeline, and this can cause problems if you, for instance, want to include other footage, B-Roll, or stock footage, that comes from a different source. However, once you have your finished edit at 23.98fps, you can make a 24p DVD, which will allow you to compress your MPEG2 less than if you were making a normal 29.97fps NTSC DVD, and hence attain higher picture quality. Similarly, if you’re making a web movie, you will find it easier to get a higher quality result from 23.98fps media than normal NTSC media. 23.98fps movies are also easier to take out to film that 29.97fps movies.
If you are editing in a 23.98fps timeline, Final Cut Pro will add pulldown on the fly, over Firewire, so that you can see your movie on a normal NTSC monitor. Similarly, it will add pulldown when going back to DV tape. However, this will not work on a non-DV format output, say to Digital Betacam, and slower Macintoshes do not have the power to add 3:2 pulldown in realtime, falling back to lower quality pulldowns which although are not too bad while editing, will not make the final project look as acceptably good on television as a final product.
What that tells me is that 24P just adds a "look" of 24 fps to the footage that resembles that of telecined film, but that you work with normally at 29.97fps. Or, if you want to, you can add a reverse telecine and work at 23.98. Either way.
BUT, with 24PA, the footage looks jittery when played on the tape. So sure, you can work with it and output it to tape, but that tape is useless to anyone OTHER than someone who can capture it and perform a reverse telecine to work with it. It will not work as a Master tape for any viewable purpose: Broadcast TV, projected video from tape, a master tape for dubbing purposes. So, in effect, it is useless as a tape master, and should be avoided.
If you want to have a tape master, shoot and edit 24P at the 29.97 framerate.

Playing GoPro Video 120fps - defaults in slow motion

Is there a way to change the speed of play in Photos? My GoPro videos that I took at 120fps are played in slow motion by default and I can't figure out how to change it to play at normal speed. Ideas?

Video plays in slow motion

I do not know how but one of my videos is playing in slow motion. How do I get it to play at normal speed and save at the normal speed.

Time Stretch / Slow Motion Percentages

When doing slo-mo (aka Time Stretch), are there "magic" percentages that will give you better results?
For example, if I have a 2 second clip, will stretching it to an "even" multiple like 4 seconds give me a better result than, say, stretching it to something random like 3.75 or 5.32 seconds?

Ed.Mache
From what I have heard there are "magic" numbers that most instructors advise their students to use in this regard. The following is an exerpt of how I answered a similar question elsewhere:
"Advised Slow Motion Speed" sets are given as:
50%, 33.33%, 25%, 20%, 16.67%
"Advised Fast Motion Speed" set are given as:
100%, 200%, 300%, 400%, 500%
What is looked at is the even manner in which the frames are added or removed. And, the decision is based on the speed change percentage. In the case of the 50% speed set, the ratio would be 1:2, reflecting that every one frame ends up as two; 33.33% speed set, the ratio would be 1:3, reflecting that every one frame ends up as three, etc. In the case of 200%, the ratio would be 2:1, reflecting that every 2 frames become 1, etc.
It all goes to the smoothness of the motion.

Video shot specifically for Slow Motion playback

I thought I might try starting a thread for sharing video shot specifically for the purpose of playing it back in slow motion. For the first example, I shot this flag flying on a perfectly clear day. We have had a lot of really clear blue days lately much to my delight.
My Panasonic DMC-GH3 can shoot 1920X1080 at 60 (59.94) frames per second. That is frames, not fields. So interpreted at 29.97 frames per second it plays half speed. This was taken a step farther and played back at 24p. So if my math is correct, it is playing at 40% (close enough).
Funny, but the camera actually has a setting to shoot video to play back at 40% but it seems redundant to me. Perhaps if the video was never going to be edited, just played back, that could come in handy.
I used a recording from the US Army Band because I was in the Army and I am just used to hearing it played by the Army Band. I thought of adding the lyrics since I really like them. All four verses. I just didn't have enough footage to do it right and I love the sunshine and blue skies. So here is a link to the four verses for those who want to play the video four times and sing along. Nobody? Are you sure? I did it. Couldn't help it.
I am probably going to put up a couple more copies. One with the Pledge of Allegiance and one with the first verse of the National Anthem. In the meantime, I am enjoying all that blue sky.
If your camera can shoot at a higher frame rate to play back at 24p, please post some examples. If you are particularly good at using Premiere Pro to modify the playback speed of video, let's see what you've got.
The camera was siting on a GorillaPod shooting at approximately a 30 degree angle. The lens was my 100-300 set for 183mm, the equivalent of 355mm on a 35mm camera.
ISO 200. This video has not been modified in any way other than interpreting it to play at 24 frames per second, to trim off the beginning and the end (to eliminate the shaky setup and take down of the shot), and I also added cross-dissolve transitions at the beginning and the end. No color correction of any kind and no stabilization. This is what the camera saw.
I really love the flag of the United States. If you live in the United States I hope you do too. Today is Washington's Birthday. So Happy Birthday to the Father of our country. Our first President. This is my present to our founding fathers on this day, and I chuckle to think about how shocked they might be at the number of stars on the flag, and I am sad when I think how mad they would be if they knew how far we have strayed from the principles they fought and died for.
(I'll bet old Ben Franklin would love the Internet though.)

Steve, regarding my request getting inside flag and changing shutter speed etc..
I have to admit right off that I don't understand this myself as I should...and I don't have a motion pic camera OR the DSLR ....which I can get in April ...at which time I will be off to the races trying to figure out how to use it.
But the gist of what I was getting at ( though hazy and not understood by me ) I'll try to explain...
Motion pic film cameras with the mechanical gizmo that pulls down the film ( frame by frame ) have a rotating shutter ( the gizmo is typically called a mitchel movement I think ). The rotating shutter has a mirro on the back side which allows a person to 'see' via some magic stuff ( prism ? ) what is in the frame ( eyepiece ). I guess it's similar to a SLR mirror but this one spins.
This is what it looks like
So, a normal setting for that shutter is 180 degrees... and it spins so that each frame gets 'exposed' by the open part of the shutter. Then when the shutter is spun to the closed side ( no light getting to film frame ) the 'next frame of film' is dragged down into place to be exposed. So that happens typically 24 times per second. It is pretty fast.
Some motion pic cameras can shoot even FASTER ( amazingly )...and you can therefore increase the FPS. Then as you know when it's played back at 24 FPS in projector, it looks like slower motion.
Unfortunately if the FPS is increased the 180 degree shutter may not be letting in enough light to get a good exposure anymore... so that shutter can be adjusted ( called the shutter angle ).
So a 45 degree shutter would let a lot more light hit the film ...cause it lets more light through its rotation time. This is the part where I can totally confused....and hopefully I'll learn more when I get the DSLR how this is handled with modern digital camera.
Cause, if you let more light hit the film by adjusting film motion pic shutter it stands to reason there will more " blur " from the longer exposure. However, this is offset by the faster FPS speed... so this is why I am curious about it...
As a point of fact motion pic cameras can be synchd to CRT screens using a mechanism that times the shutter to coincide with the horizontal 'lines' of the CRT ( timing of frames of interlaced signal )... and the shutter has many 'angles' it can be adjusted to ..
So, anyway, I guess this is something to explore when I get that DSLR...
I was thinking it might look cool to have slo mo with more 'blur' to make something look a little ghost like...kinda like my flag picture with time exposure...
crazy idea...

Slow motion tips?

Can anyone give me an idea of how to pull off the slow motion look that can often be seen in music videos. I plan on capturing a shot of singer looking into camera and singing and want it to look like it's in slow motion, yet it is in sync with the music.
suggestions?

Hi -
Get a copy of the song sped up 200%.
Film the singer lip-syncing to the 200% track with a camera capable of shooting 60 fps.
Play the video shot at 60 fps at 30 fps, it will now appear slow mo but the singer will sync-able with the music track played at normal speed (100%).

Slow motion lost after sync from mac to iphone

Hi,
I can capture videos in slow motion but those videos play at normal speed once Sync them via iTunes.
1. Capture videos in slow motion.
2. The videos first play in slow motion in the iPhone. There is a time line slider to move the slo-mo effect back and forth.
3. I do a back-up via iTunes including videos.
4. After syncing, the videos in the iPhone appear in one album called "Slo-Mo".
5. In the thumbnail of the video clip I can see the small dial icon that all other slow motion videos have.
6. Playing the video shows a normal speed clip without the timeline slider under the video frames view.
The videos DO retain the slo-mo "effect" in Aperture and iPhoto also. Not in the iPhone after syncing.
Any hints to solve this? thanks

iPhone 6 iOS8

Hi,
iOS 8.1 didn't fix the issue so here is my workaround to " show-off " my slow motion clips:
I have tried to open the clips with iMovie in the iPhone. ( I guess not everyone has iMovie installed...?)
So, you can create a new project in iOS iMovie and import the clip you want. Slow motion clips preserve the little dial icon so you can see which ones have the slo-mo effect. It will preserve the slow-motion sections of the original clip and will play "slow".
If for some magical reason your clip doesn't play "slow" in iOS iMovie click on the small "tachometer" icon and select the desired speed.
So. iMovie does know the clip has enough frames to play in slow motion... why the camera app doesn't ?
good luck,
jp

Slow motion on windows xp pro

Hello,
I'm on windows xp pro by boot camp and I have sometimes some slow motion. It's a problem when i'm listening music. I didn't find virus with avast antivirus and my computer used to be clean with Ccleaner and Spybot search and destroy.
What can i do?

I would post in the Boot Camp forum area here:

IPhone 6 Plus IOS v8.1 Slow Motion BROKEN

Film in either of the two slow motion speeds and plays back ok on phone. I put the files in the computer (grab the raw file via explorer), on Win 7 Professional, and played with both windows media player AND Quicktime player (up to date players) and the videos play either no slow motion, plays alternating between fast and slow, one time it played slow but had normal voice pitch, other times played slow with low voice pitch. On youtube, they don't play in slow motion. One I shot vertically (which I did just as a test) and it was sideways in the computer, however, youtube rotated it so it's vertical but it is not in HD and it does not play back in slow motion. This same file that was sideways in my computer stopped playing after about 2 seconds in the computer, but played through ok in the phone. I noticed that as the video plays in the phone, there are blue vertical lines below the left/right scrub/scroll bar for the video. This can be set to play only a portion in slow motion. But WHY does it start each video with the ends nudged in so the first 3 sec is regular speed and the last 2 are also reg speed also w/the slo-mo in between? It defaults to this each time an you have to spread it out to get all slow motion..
In Win XP, some of the video files don't show up. It shows .aae files with corresponding numbers to the videos, but most of the videos are not there.
I think this is a huge software bug that needs to be tested. I updated the os on my new phone before I put anything into my phone. Everything else has been perfect till this. HELP!

You said, "...plays back ok on phone." That's where Apple's software stops. Your problems with Win 7, Win XP, Quicktime, and YouTube need to be addressed on forums for those programs and/or sites. Presumably the issue has already been resolved by users on those sites, with different solutions for each.

Slow motion / fast motion in Premiere Elements 13

I read that in Premiere Elements 13 fast motion (and I think also slow motion) ist removed. Is that correct. And if yes: Is there any workaround available?

rr
Thanks for the reply.
Great information. If you have been using Ctrl+R, that is the keyboard shortcut that brings up the Time Stretch dialog.
Time Stretch (use of the Ctrl+R) has not been removed from Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace.
Like Premiere Elements 11, Time Stretch is found in the Expert workspace and not in the Quick workspace.
When you use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+R, I get Time Stretch dialog from where I can create the slow or fast motion effect in the selected clip.
The following relates to Premiere Elements Timelapse Capture (Stop Motion) which has been removed from
Premiere Elements 13 as a specific feature that you see in Premiere Elements 11 and 12.
Adobe Premiere Elements 11 * Capture stop-motion and time-lapse video
Please let me know if you are OK with the above information.
Thank you.
