  • Advice/Tips for Slow Motion scenes

    Posted by Jay Craig on March 12, 2013 at 3:13 pm

    I’ve been trying to create slow motion scenes for the longest but I can’t quite get it right.

    Here’s what i do. Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

    Adjust camera settings in Canon 60D

    60fps, 120 shutter speed

    FCP X – Conform Speed.

    Not sure what I’m doing wrong

    It’s always choppy

    Thx

    Well you did not tell us what or how your are working, choppy video can mean slow drives, incomplete processing, bad conversion of media, failure to blend frames.

    and I am not sure that the 60d can do 60fps I think that is 60i isn’t it?

    This was happening to a person a few posts down (bit from iPhone footage).

    Optimizing the media solved it.

    DSLRs don’t do interlaced. It shoots 60p. It’s the same video tech as the 7d, t3i.
