  • Beginner-friendly tutorial for Twixtor Pro?

    Posted by Juuso Voutilainen on October 30, 2009 at 8:50 am

    Hi, I have read the Twixtor and Twixtor Pro manual and searched the internet and Creative Cow forums quite a bit thoroughly without really finding a informative tutorial about creating and applying the foreground and background mattes, usage of tracking points and geometrical splines, all of the advanced motion guidance tools. So I would like to ask that if there exists, or if anyone could take some time and explain how to use this advanced features I would be very, very grateful. I am searching for best-possible slow-motion, and I am not getting satisfactory result with default settings, alot of disturbing artifacts appear. I have tried RealViz ReTimer PRO also, it has quite a bit good results, but it has some glooping (background distorting near foreground objects) and the output slow-motion video suffers from somekind of flickering (rapid luminance changes in video), so that is not good either. I am using Canon HV30 with 60i mode and a shutter speed of 2000. Thank you very much

    Greetings

    Pierre, does Twixtor need foreground and background mattes for best slow-motion results? And if it is so, does it need frame-by-frame rotoscoping?

    I am having a similar problem. I read the manual but I still get many artifacts. Did anyone post any advanced videos online somewhere?

    Thanks. I’ve seen these though. I’m looking for tutorials that feature the matte, tracking and spline options of Twixtor. My expectations might be high for the footage but I want to know the extent to which Twixtor can handle strange warping artifacts.

    Thanks!
