Free tutorials for Twixtor available
Hey all,
Slow motion, speed up and variable speed (time remapping) software that uses motion estimation can be a very difficult topic to get your head wrapped around. Due to overwhelming demand, we have developed tutorials that explain the concepts of retiming and motion estimation with respect to Twixtor.
And the good new is: THESE TUTORIALS ARE FREE.
Twixtor Basics
Tutorials for After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro and combustion.These tutorials explain the basics of Twixtor and why you’d want to use motion estimation in order to time “warp” your clips. Also explained are concepts that will help you figure out how to set up Twixtor and which settings to tweak in order to get the best results. Included in the basics tutorials are sample projects, sample clips and explanations tailored for each for each of the four applications.
You can download the tutorials from here: https://www.revisionfx.com/rstwixtortutorials.htm
Note that we still have our sample projects available for the more advanced features found in Twixtor Pro.Be forewarned, the tutorial package is huge (217Mb). Please note that we do not have the resources to mail physical copies of the tutorials to you.

Any chance of the tutorials getting broken up to more manageable file sizes Pete ?

Speaking of Twixtor, does anyone else find it’s stability a bit flaky with Premiere? I’ve had to switch to Boris Continuum (Optical Flkow filter for slo-mo) because of the constant crashing with Twixtor 4.5.

Have you tried “Plenty of Memory” unchecked? (i.e. OFF).
Also, I’ve seen it freeze up if I define the color
source / secondary source in T4.5, then move tracks
around, but it doesn’t happen all the time.” Any chance of the tutorials getting broken up to more manageable file sizes Pete ?”
As for *these* tutorials, the main reason why
they’re big is that they have a lot of footage
(incl. full-NTSC/PAL sized clips,
even though they’re very compressed and shared
by the html guide as well as the project
files for various host apps). They also have
a lot of illustrations as opposed to formulas
and such, to add some Physics-For-Poets feel.:)
These were originally done for the recent
NAB swag CD.Also, not a step-by-step tutorial, but smaller
sample projects are available at

All the way at the bottom of that page.-Shin

We’ve had no one report problems with Premiere, but that just might mean that no one is reporting the problem. Can you give some specific setups or things that you do when Twixtor crashes for you?

Thanks Pete,
I’m away on a shoot, but will do some tests when I get back to the studio. It will get halfway througha render then crash PPro to Desktop. I’ll confirm though.
Regards,
Peter
