  • 20% velocity and supersampling questions

    Posted by Steven J casey on June 29, 2006 at 2:54 pm

    I have some shots in a short production that I want to slow down to around 20% velocity. At that speed there’s a noticable jerkiness of motion from frame to frame. Isn’t there a function that will interpolate frames to smooth this out? Is this where supersampling comes in? I’ve tried adding supersampling in the bus track but nothing really happens, although I’m not really sure what supersampling does because I can’t get it to make any noticable effect on anything. The help file isn’t very helpful on the subject either.

    TIA

    Supersampling creates a bit of a blur on moving objects so, for example, computer animation has a more life-like appearance.

    As far as a 20% slo-mo goes; you shouldn’t expect smooth looking video because you are essentially showing only 6 frames per second (assuming 30fps to start with).

    try a short test on the slo-mo sections before using super sampling

    1) right click on the slo mo section in TL – properties and check the box force resample ..render or use ram preview
    2) again right click properties and this time choose do not resample.
    render out or use ram preview

    or if you have a fast CPU – on the vegas preveiw screen -when you use preview auto/full that is using do not resample …. good & best auto/full is using resample … if your CPU is not fast enough to playback 29.97 then zoom into TL so when you use the right arrow you advance one frame at a time then hold down the right arrow and look at preview window …

    i find sometimes i like the resample and other times no resample – just depends on the clips …
