Used this 1.5 years ago for a music video shoot, then revisited it last week for a shoot this past weekend. Beautiful info, perfect amount of self deprecation, and even more beautiful flares. I'd imagine you're busy as all hell, hence the lack of uploads, but I know myself and many others would love to head back into your nerd cave for whatever you decide to cook up. What you make is such a perfect combination of ridiculous, yet useful and inspired filmmaking.
Thanks Vincent! Might take a while for the channel to get its momentum back after my lengthy absence. If you get a chance to share the clip around, every bit helps!
Hey Brother! First of all thank you for this video! Very creative! One question remained... how are you actually jamming the timecode to the camera? It wasn't explained in the video... I am assuming that you have a stereo female connection, the audio going to your speaker/in-ear rig and the other one with an audio to bnc cable? We do a lot of multi-cam and this would be a game-changer! Let me know your thoughts!
Hey mate! So this technique is a strictly visual timecode - no actual timecode signal goes to the cameras. It still works with multicam - we've done a lot of clips that way. You just need to make sure that every camera sees the tablet screen at the beginning - and then you use that footage to manually line up each camera in post. Sometimes that means putting some extra timecode on your playback file before the music starts, so the playback operator has enough time to get around to each camera and show them the slate. I've been wanting to work out a way to get physical timecode to each camera, but so far when shooting offspeed I haven't found a reliable method.
@@TheUndercurrentTV hey! Thanks for clarifying! But manual timecode=nightmare. I'm sure there's an easy way to jam it to a wireless master timecode unit. I'll do some testing and get back at you when I figure out a solution!
thank you brother for such a detailed explanation about this important section of the video clip, I really want to learn more about the subject, hopefully I can develop more classes on playback in audiovisual production, even if they are paid they will be received. When do you plan to talk about it again?
Dude thank you for this video. I feel like i could do the same thing by mimicing someone dancing. Slowing down the dance and song and getting all the movies to match then speeding it back up. Im going to try this today lol.
No probs! That’s a good idea. I tried something similar for a clip that didn’t get released. We got stems of the track and had dancers from different styles “interpret” how each instrument sounded at different frame rates.
@@graetzmedia I have taken the liberty of sharing the link to this video on the ‘Music Video Pro’ FB group, so hopefully other aspirants in this field can also be inspired by your ‘next level’ production skills and attention to detail.
So I tested this out this weekend. Bit confused how to sync it after. Usually use multi cam and sync that way. Would I add a gap 10 seconds on time line, add my audio like the slate, then match up the time code on each clip? When the slate it shown
Great tutorial 👌🏾👌🏾. Will give this a go next time. I’m just starting out attempting/doing music videos. I’ve used Bluetooth and a speaker so far, you say not to though. I have the wireless go 2 also. How would I use that with iPad and speaker? Is that how you meant?
Thanks! I only recommend avoiding Bluetooth as most of this systems have some inherent (and inconsistent) delay which makes it hard to sync accurately later. Bluetooth is getting better and better so hopefully that will change as it’s a super convenient way to run your setup. To use the Wireless Go just attach one of the transmitters on your iPad (maybe use Velcro or if your case has a handle or lanyard clip it onto that) and connect the 3.5mm cable between the Go and the iPad (you might need a Lightning or USB-C to 3.5mm adapter if your tablet doesn’t have a headphone Jack). Then connect the receiver to your speaker using another 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable (assuming your speaker has an aux input). You might need to tweak the gain settings on the Go transmitter/receiver if the volume you get is too high or low.
Thx for the nice video!! Suppose you got only 23.976 24 25 29.97 30 50 and 60 FPS in camera. How would you do under-cranking? 24 fps to 30 Fps? how to sync 35 of 40 FPS audio to 25 FPS timeline if shot on 60 FPS? if that make sence non cinema cameras do not offer fps 30-40 range?
Can you please tell me what slider you are using? I have the latest Rhino motion controlled slider, but have been trying to figure out a way to have it sync with the music. I didn't know it was even possible. I would love to know a little more about the hardware and/or software needed to this. Excellent video! Love you style of teaching (and all the cool anamorphic) !! :)
Hey Steve, I’m using a camBLOCK Adventure motion control system. Unfortunately camBLOCK aren’t actively making the product anymore, but if you reach out them they may have some available. They occasionally come up on the second hand market. I’ve used a bunch of systems and camBLOCK (while not cheap) is by far the most capable. Glad you liked the episode - much appreciated 🤙🏻

This. IS SOME GRADE A QUALITY Content. Holy Sh. it.
i have never seen anyone with an atlas orion for the a cam for youtube but i have to say it's a pleasure to watch
Your Premiere shade really hit the spot. I'll probably finish your video before my project finishes autosaving...
Crazy. I literally needed a solution to this yesterday, and lo and behold, here it is! Dan, you are a legend. Subscribed!
Glad it helped you out 👍🏻
Seriously excellent demonstration. Thanks mate. This little gem needs wider viewage.

Brilliant stuff. Loved the multipass mult rate motion control!
Thanks Steve 🤙🏻 hope it helps on your next clip

Loved this, always meed more vids filmed in Anamorphic haha.
It’s in line with the unofficial motto of this channel - overkill is underrated.
Pure Gold. Thank you
Great Video
Love your work Dan! Thanks for sharing…

Why do we see some video clips that use clapperboard with timecode if they almost always record 48, 50 ext?

@@graetzmedia - thank so much for the info! Looking forward to exploring more of your content!
Curious how close you could get to Coldplay’s “The Scientist” by playing it in reverse? Might be impossible but it makes me curious.
The adobe premiere jab had me cackling!!! FACTS!
love the Big L shoutout
👏🏾👍🏾🙏🏾
Might be time for you to go pocket 4K... 😟
Painful. Painful.
