It has been recommissioned by C4 for 60 episodes, including prime-time versions and five themed programmes. It has been a great success and the shows grabbed more viewers in the 4pm weekday slot than any previous strand. I also designed and built the majority of the graphics as Motion templates. Though I haven't yet tried to herd a flock of sheep through the city centre! Current EditingĢ020 has been busy, the beginning of the year was finishing off a new property series (cut on FCP) for Channel 4 called The Great House Giveaway. I was made a Freeman of Lichfield through The Worshipful Company of Smiths (established 1601). Under the name Idustrial Revolution, I have written and sold plugins for Final Cut Pro for 13 years. I have also worked as a broadcast and corporate editor for over 30 years, starting on one inch tape, working through many formats, right up to today's NLEs. I am the Editor-in-Chief of FCP.co and have run the website since its inception ten years ago. The basic workflow is to 1) Shoot at 59.94fps 2) Bring the footage into Motion and retime to 15%, 3) Export from Motion and conform it to 23.98fps using Cinema Tools. It’s important to mount the camera on a tripod, turn off AWB, and pick a scene with a relatively simple background (like…snow). Either way, you’ll need to pick and choose the best bits with the smoothest motion and the least mush.įor our test, we used a Canon 60d with a Tokina 11-16mm f2.8, 59.94fps 1280Ã-720, shutter at 1/1600. Which is better, Motion Optical Flow or Twixtor? It seems to be more or less a draw, with Apple Motion having the distinct advantage that it comes bundled with Apple Final Cut Studio and is therefore free if you already use FCS. As is the case with Twixtor, Apple Motion handles some shots beautifully while other shots get turned to ripply mush. We wil let Crumple Pop take up the story -Īfter a lot of experimentation, we came up with a workflow that yields pretty solid results. So why not use Motion instead? Watch the tutorial then see the result after the break. You've seen the awesome BMX videos posted here that slow down footage to 1000 fps using the optical flow plugin Twixtor.
