But you're not talking about frame rate... you're talking about slowing stuff down by varying degrees, which can only become possible when you start shooting at higher frame rates.
"for him" I really don't understand what the fuck he was talking about considering the question is "to shoot at 24fps or 120 fps". The question was never when to have motion blur or when to have details, because 240fps would easily win that by simply playing it back at 24fps.... The real disadvantage of 480 fps and 960 fps is that 1920fps takes up less space then 3840fps. everything else is up to the director, if you only caught 24fps the that's all that you got to work with. he did have a run in the sun so he was shirt less for that video, also you got to give that man credit for the sunglasses they really did look cinematic, not like some fuck boy that got a degree in arts. Seriously I don't even film shit and I know that the faster the fps the more light it requires, a 24fps shot would require more light thus the exposure would be more, that's what gives a back alley fight more "feel", it's dimly lit, fast ad "gritty" compared to a 60fps action shot in a brightly lit environment where every detail matter. I mea I didn't have daddy money or felt the need to expose myself to a camera on the internet. maybe I'm wrong
You make an excellent point. His unstated assumptions are atrocious. This is YT, not second year cinema. We're all left to guess something like this... "All shots are played at a frame rate of 60fps, so divide 60 by the recording frame rate to get the playback speed." That would make a RECORDING frame rate of 120 play at 0.5x real time and a RECORDING frame rate of 30 play at 2x real time. The crucial five second explanation is sorely missed.
Great examples BUT... you left off that some people shoot entirely at 60fps and plays at normal speed not slo mo. I guess your examples are 24fps time line and when dropping in 60/120/180 fps motion is slow?
I got some footage on my Mavic 2, at 24fps and dropped it into a 30fps timeline, and FCPX added a duplicate frame every four frames to make up the disparity in frame rates. I don't know, but my guess is that frame rates that don't multiply or divide equally to the timeline will suffer. So, maybe a 30fps timeline for those 'slo-mo's' you mentioned? 24fps 'not playing well with others' is why I almost never shoot 24fps. I could be wrong... (BTW, I'm shooting on an EOSR and 70D at the moment, plus Hero7 and Hero8, Osmo Pocket, Osmo Action as well, and combine a lot of various footage, all shot at multiples of 30.)
Look at the frame rates that each of those devices support for example if they all are capable of supporting 30p it probably makes sense to set all of the devices to 30p. If they do not all support a common frame rate then find a good compromise. Something shot in 30p on a 24p timeline most of the time no one would notice because they'll be too focused on the action. Another factor is what codecs are used to encode the video on each device chances are that each device encodes the video with a slightly different method - I have a generic GoPro which does use a good codec so my editor must re-encode those parts because even though the frame rate is the same. Still, you would not notice this in the end result the only thing is it takes longer to encode the file to generate the final product. The most important takeaway is it's good to develop a knowledge of the problems that can appear when combining different frame rates.
Exactly. This should have been pointed out at the beginning of the vid. I also shoot at 30fps on a 30fps timeline. Then 60fps 120fps drop in perfectly.

DO MORE GUIDES LIKE THIS! sorry that was a bit overdramatic but seriously I always come back to this video it really helps so any other guides would help too!!
My favorite slow motion camera is the one I have, 🤣 so far using 60 fps on my EOS R has been great, only a couple of times have I used the 120 fps for fixed shots of food falling or stuff that I can fix focus
This was incredible man, great explanation on when to actually use a type of slow motion as opposed to just slapping everything on 120fps and a colour grade on everything. Very useful thank you🙏🏾
this lady in the pic confused with all this calculation, is a successful brazilian actress. Her name is Renata Sorrah. This expression of her was performed during a soap opera in 2004, and eventually turned into a meme. teh simply fact that put her face on your video made my day thankyou for everything.
This was super helpful! I'm just getting into studying cinematography to improve my TH-cam channel and this was just what I needed to know! One quick question, though. At 120 fps, I start getting flickering in my recording when attempting this inside under fluorescent lights. Sounds like this is best used in outdoor spaces?
Our A/C power in the US runs at 60 Hz(50hz in EU) so if you shoot in framerates higher than 60fps you can get a flicker from lights using that power. Quality video lights convert this power to D/C and eliminate this issue. There are also ways to fix this in post. Even LEDS can flicker if they use a dimming process called pulse width modulation(google pwm to learn more).
Theres also the option to use davincis deflicker setting, really does work wonders if you have a robust enough file. Ive been able to achieve 240fps under led household bulbs (i was on a canon c700 mind you, so please post your results with your camera, id be really interested to see)
@@loganfishbeard And LEDs don't even need to be dimmed to be suffering from PWM or AC-ripple. LED power supplies can suffer from AC-ripple when their filtering is not (what I call) up to standards (as I think LED-lighting should not have any flicker at all, whether it be a videolight or normal household/office lighting) but there are also quite a lot of power supplies for LEDs that suffer flicker from PWM driven circuitry. Those last are usually the hardest to deal with as the frequency can differ from light to light or can even vary with the temperature of the LED itself (higher temperature can have the driver lower the dutycycle but some counteract possible flicker by also raising the frequency) AC-ripple is simple: match your framerate to the power-supply frequency and make sure you choose a shutterspeed that is always a double, qaudruple and so on of your framerate, although it doesn't guarantee you won't have trouble with banding. One advice though: a real videocamera usually suffers far less from banding/flickering than a smartphone or digital photocamera, which is just down to how the sensor is read. Downside is that where a smartphone or photocamera starts to get issues with banding, a videocamera usually has the whole frame affected ;)
Excellent tutorial! Explains so much so well, with perfect illustrations, all in a brief moment of time. Thanks for sharing it! Now I need to practice what you've taught and make it a part of my video production work in appropriate ways!
Well basically all those times stability is not an issue: so when you're shooting from a tripod or use a gimbal: turn stabilisation OFF. It will try to prevent a pan as it thinks it's movement, and especially in a gimbal, that compensates for movement itself, it could really counteract the image. Even when you're shooting handheld, stabilisation can be a thing you might want to turn off. The GH5 does a fantastic job at stabilisation, but when you are getting better at panning or tilting by hand, this can introduce the same unwanted effects as when on a tripod. (what you'll see is that when you start and stop panning, the sensor basically lags for a while and when coming to a stop after your pan, it could overcompensate and cause a kind of soft bounce-back like effect.
Sorry I'm just seeing your video so I'm a bit late to the party, great explination of what the different rates are best use for. Can you explain why these different uses must be filmed at 24, 60 or 120 instead of filming everything at 120 and just export at the 24, 60 or 120 that you need for the clip you are working in?
Thank you, Mark! I needed to see this. I shoot underwater and definitely overuse slow motion. Appreciate these specific tips and your content in general. Your approach is practical while also keeping it fun and entertaining. Keep it coming!
Very late to this video but what a straightforward and simple way to explain the frame rate differences and their potential applications. This made so much sense to me. Great work 👍🏼
When making these types of videos, it would be helpful if you make sure the viewer knows you're talking about filmmaking, since 60 fps is often used to get a more realistic effect when played back at 60 fps. It's not always just for slow motion.
Great video, good info on FPS/slow motion, but mind blown, “they drop the sound before the explosion for contrast” lesson learnt and will apply in the future.
A good tip is to not make 60FPS to slow it down, but to be played back as 60FPS - as it's a lot smoother than 30FPS, and because of the halved motion blur it also means a much sharper footage that still lets you clearly see objects in motion even if it plays back at full speed. Similarily, if you then shoot 120FPS you can half that down to 60FPS and get that dream like feeling without quartering the speed of motion. :)
@@justafrenchkidtryingtospea9462 - That's just because you're not used to it. Obviously our eyes work at least at 60fps (otherwise we wouldn't notice the difference,) so if frame rates above 24fps "don't look natural," that's just in one's head. (That, or you're watching something where AI took 24fps video and tried to make it look like natural 60fps, which usually DOES look like crap.)
Kind of confusing. You film in some frame rate YET you play it back at another rate . You didn’t film at 120fps, then also play it back at 120fps. It’s in “slow motion” so you are playing it back at a slower rate (slo mo). Confusing 🫤. What topic are you talking about , slow motion (filming at one rate then playing back at a slower rate) , or just different film rates played back at the rate they were filmed in. Example: 60fps / played back at 60fps looks unnatural , yet 60fps played back at 24 fps looks good and also has a “slow mo effect”. You made a how to video about slow motion NOT film rates.
I think the best compliment on TH-cam is to say I am glad that I watched this and I am glad I did. One of the best channels about video I found. Thank you!
Man, great content. I've been watching your videos since you started you channel and there is no such thing as boring video. Keep going with the same energy:))
very interesting angle on that topic. We all should think about the need of a gimmic, a tool and when it is really needed. GREAT JOB on that. Of course I am a new subscriber! BTW Fantastic commercials - especially the nike one and all the others.
Really useful - thanks for the resource! I've just bought an action camera so that I could shoot slow-motion, but the sodding information on amazon was inaccuratel, so I can't shoot up to 120fps. However, now I'm uncertain because the motions that are described here at the 60fps mark (playing in a band would be my use of it) seem to fit the right speed of motion that you described. What a first-world quandry!
im a bit lost (been looking into videography never stepped in it yet) around 6:30 when you show the girl getting ready to run, you're showing 24frames then when shes ready to run you switch up to 60frames. where im confused is, it looked like the same scene, do you shoot 60frames and downframe (is this a word?) to 24 but when slowing down you use the actual 60 frames footage? or are you able to switch those settings mid recording?
Great to break it down into specific areas of use. Thank you. Very helpful. 50k - that didn't take long. No surprise. Great content. Keep em coming :-).
That's a brilliant explanation of "cinematic" - you get to see things in a way you wouldn't normally see them. I used to teach a class on theatre and would always ask the question 'what is meant when we say something is theatrical?' My answer is that something happens on stage that's magical and leaves an audience either enthralled by what they did, how they did it or a combination of the two - and we're impressed because it would be easy to show that thing in a movie but not on stage. For example, in the stage play version of War Horse they create a man riding a life size galloping horse on stage, with puppetry - and as an audience you're left marvelling at how they achieved that effect.

"Shoot at 60fps and playback at 60fps" is not slow motion, just higher detail.

EVERYTHING.

i edit all my youtube videos on a 2017 macbook. i shoot at 1080 120 every day. i make a video just about every day. macbook is great
Thank you. I just got my Note 20 Ultra. I'm new to the camera world. You video explain the frame rate is the best I've seen so far.
well you can have high framerate and speed up. 24fps hurts my eyes when camera moves, srsly.
Great video Mark!
09:48 brazil memes everywhere 😂😂😂😂😂
ROFL!!!!! Dei uma olhada nos comentários só pra ver se algum brasileiro também viu aquilo.
Rob Sound 😂😂😂 teve mais um cara que tbm identificou o meme
You make such informative and interesting videos Mark. Keep at it!
Ive become allergic to slow motion. Its like drone shots.
hahaha, right?
Agreed!
Yep. Yep. Yep.
Yep.
congrats Mark! awesome content.!

This is massively helpful! Congrats on the 50k.
Thanks Jake!!
Kind of confusing. You film in some frame rate YET you play it back at another rate . You didn’t film at 120fps, then also play it back at 120fps. It’s in “slow motion” so you are playing it back at a slower rate (slo mo). Confusing 🫤. What topic are you talking about , slow motion (filming at one rate then playing back at a slower rate) , or just different film rates played back at the rate they were filmed in. Example: 60fps / played back at 60fps looks unnatural , yet 60fps played back at 24 fps looks good and also has a “slow mo effect”. You made a how to video about slow motion NOT film rates.
Whaaat. He just wanted to show the difference you
This guide is essential. Thanks!
Thanks mate!
Hahahahhaa its a little bit of weird seeing a Brazilian meme here. Nazaré calculating
That meme’s been worldwide for at least 4 years, not that weird at all. In fact i’m just finding out it’s from Brazil lol.
Awesome work....You explained the use of frame rates very well...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA I love Nazaré meme
It's the best
Very simple to understand, you are a good teacher. Thank you!
I think the best compliment on TH-cam is to say I am glad that I watched this and I am glad I did. One of the best channels about video I found. Thank you!
Thank you!!
Thanks for such a great video… you break down the why in such an easy to understand format.
Dont usually comment on youtube videos but this was extremely helpful. Thank you.
Glad it helped!
Wow great video bro! I just smashed that sub button. Burst explanation yet.
💯💯💯
Thanks... this is very helpful... now I know when to use slow motion
💯💯💯
Thank you for posting helping me weigh out the importance of 4K 120 vs 6K 60. Definitely helped me figure out what I needed.
Man, great content. I've been watching your videos since you started you channel and there is no such thing as boring video. Keep going with the same energy:))
🙏🏻 thank you for the support!!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
very interesting angle on that topic. We all should think about the need of a gimmic, a tool and when it is really needed. GREAT JOB on that. Of course I am a new subscriber! BTW Fantastic commercials - especially the nike one and all the others.
Thanks SUUPA! So glad you've subbed to this community!
Very useful. I never saw this kind of breakdown before. Thanks!
🙏🏻
This is a great breakdown Mark! Thank you for sharing!
Really useful - thanks for the resource! I've just bought an action camera so that I could shoot slow-motion, but the sodding information on amazon was inaccuratel, so I can't shoot up to 120fps. However, now I'm uncertain because the motions that are described here at the 60fps mark (playing in a band would be my use of it) seem to fit the right speed of motion that you described. What a first-world quandry!
im a bit lost (been looking into videography never stepped in it yet) around 6:30 when you show the girl getting ready to run, you're showing 24frames then when shes ready to run you switch up to 60frames.
where im confused is, it looked like the same scene, do you shoot 60frames and downframe (is this a word?) to 24 but when slowing down you use the actual 60 frames footage? or are you able to switch those settings mid recording?
Great to break it down into specific areas of use. Thank you. Very helpful. 50k - that didn't take long. No surprise. Great content. Keep em coming :-).
Thanks Steve! Love talking about the nitty gritty
just want to say, i know this video is old but two years later it really helped big time!!
That's a brilliant explanation of "cinematic" - you get to see things in a way you wouldn't normally see them. I used to teach a class on theatre and would always ask the question 'what is meant when we say something is theatrical?' My answer is that something happens on stage that's magical and leaves an audience either enthralled by what they did, how they did it or a combination of the two - and we're impressed because it would be easy to show that thing in a movie but not on stage. For example, in the stage play version of War Horse they create a man riding a life size galloping horse on stage, with puppetry - and as an audience you're left marvelling at how they achieved that effect.
I was just wondering about this today. Thanks for that explanation! I see it now.
Great video, very useful and clearly explained. Just subscribed !
Great vid Mark. Really enjoyed it. I'm sure you know but there's quite a bit of reverb coming through when in your studio.
