How to make slow motion with twixtor

1. It is recommended to shoot with a fast shutter: 1/2000- 1/4000s. [Your lighting needs to be particularly adequate]

2. Choose a simple, three-dimensional background for shooting, such as the sky and walls.

3. The highest point of shooting action. According to the laws of nature, if there is a rise, there will be a fall. Twixtor works best at the vertex of the moving arc/trajectory, because things usually move slowest at this point, and more related frames can be processed by Twixtor.

4. When you are shooting close to the subject, you can slow down the action artificially, for example, let the subject move more slowly, and do fake slow motion to achieve a slow effect. When you are shooting very close/close, slow down manually, that is, move more slowly and pretend to be slow [all close shots in Gravity are done like this, and then slow down a little with tools]. ) Shooting actions at a certain distance from the camera makes it easier to get good results with Twixtor. Because there are actually many frames in the whole action. For example, if you move your arm up and down, the camera will capture this action 50 cm away from the front of the camera, which may be 1-3 frames. However, if you are far away from the camera, such as 10- 15 meters, you will capture the whole action, which may be 7- 10 frames. More frames are easier to process with Twixtor.

5. Shoot at 50 or 60 frames per second. High-speed shooting, at the cost of giving up resolution.

6. You shoot as much as possible-try to shoot the action from different angles-if it's wrong, make up the shot, if the setting is inappropriate. Shoot more!

Post-workflow:

1. Use twix tor in After Effects-For some reason, Twixtor works best in After Effects, at least for Philip Bloom. Probably because AE can manipulate time more effectively.
