  • Time Question..why does it go from .29 to 1.0?

    Posted by Linda O’connell on May 26, 2010 at 2:34 am

    I am trying to make a still 2 1/2 seconds. However, I never really noticed this, but time goes from 2.28, 2.29 then to 3.0. I don’t really know why this is, but how to I figure out what 2 1/2 seconds is?

    This project really needs to be precise. It is for the Miss Wisconsin pageant and the girls are walking across stage with a series of their pictures one after another in the background.

    Thank you very much!

    2 1/2 sec. = 2.15
    There are 30 frames per second (actually 29.97 but that’s a different discussion).
    The first frame is 0.0 so logically the 30th frame would be 0.29
    Make sense?

    Yes absolutely. I don’t know why I didn’t make the connection. Thank you!
