so the options would be like this (in order of qualirty):
1- RSMV motion blur
2- RS motion blur
3-use simple time warp (enable motion blur)
4-Simply AE frame blending
4-use twixtor (enable built in blending)
right?

OK, to sum things up if one wants to have a nice slow motion effect here are the options:
1-convert from 60fps to 30fps + enable frame blending or use RS motion blur or use timewarp motion blur.
2-use time strech + enable frame blending or RS motion blur or time warp motion blur.
3-use simple time warp (enable built in blending).
4-use twixtor (enable built in blending).
PLZ corerct if I am wrong.

Hey Dave,
The last I used AE and twixtor was 7 years ago so forgot a few details, picking up things again.I don’t want to animate the speed of a clip I just want to slow it down (constant speed) in an elegant way without it being clunky.
I don’t like to use the native time remapping tool in AE because the slow motion effect is never as smooth and fluid as in twixtor, this is why I chose twixtor.

when I do this, the fully transparent pixels (so in my case the gray and blue area) show the background and not a black color. And its identical to the beauty render. Does this mean that maya is outputing a straight alpha and not pre-multiply?
-
that can be the case, because when rendering the image out of maya, i am checking the “premultiply” option. Any ideas?

sorry about that, here is a new link:

-does adobe media encoder generates better h264 than quiktime pro?
have you tried the comparison?-regarding the tutorial, this only wok for Mac, I already doenloaded the X264 codec and when I open quicktime pro in windows it just doesnt list X264 in the export options.

I’ll try the “conform to 30 fps” hoping its not causing any audio asynch for the imported 29.97.
Thanks for teh info
-
yes its true 29.97, after.
@ 29.97 fps: After 16 seconds it would have played 479.52 frames
@ 30 fps: After 16 seconds it would have played 480 frames
So the difference would be half a frame in worst cases, right?But shouldn’t the audio always be in synch with the video of the imported movie since they belong to the same file and thus the sound is “baked” to the images, so if stretched in a new composition they will stretch together? doesn’t the new composition’s fps become irrelevant when it comes to the video/audio synch of the imported file?
And what’s the use of choosing “conform to frame rate 30 fps” in the interpret footage options ? how does it help in keeping video/audio synchwhen AE gives a warning saying: “Audio may not be synchronised”?

30 FPS is needed because the movie has to be submitted to a competition that requires so.
