Well the funny thing is with 99% of sports content the shots only happen one time, so that advice is counter productive. When shooting a campaign or ad like you showed in this video where you have full creative control, sure, but the players aren't gonna redo a play so you can re-shoot it in a different FPS. Just shoot 60fps with at least 120 SS. Imo, 60fps footage doesn't look wrong played at full speed if your handheld skills are at least decent.
I'm liking what you say and now I want to watch your video! Shooting live shorts in 24fps, nope, never. You get one chance to get it on video. Not 10 takes.
I’m glad you talked about the higher shutter speed. Hardly anyone ever actually does that and since I film jiu jitsu tournaments I love using 24fps x 200 SS to make it look dramatic and intense
Gotta use this shooting style on my next project/spec! Thanks for the tip🙌🏻
A year late, (and I don't know how I got here), but everything is soo true. I learned the hard way like you. Awesome stuff. subbed...
Thanks You so much for your precious advisor!!! I appreciate so much!!! You are cleared mí work!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗🤗🤗🙈🙈🙈🎥🎬🎥🎬🎥👽👽👽
GREAT VIDEO
I've never heard the term SHUTTER ANGLE until now. I've crossed into another dimension... again
That’s awesome man seriously I remember the first time I heard that term it blew my mind as well. Glad to help on any questions that you have my man welcome to the channel.
Yooooo! I'm also guilty of shooting with a wide open aperture too often when, in reality, even at F5-6, we will still got that blurry background (not as much, but still) no matter what ! Great video, once again, my main!! side note: For the love of God, when are you going to book a project in Montreal?! 🤐😜
@@Alexzarfatifilms I dare you to come!!! If so, I'll be there with open arms!!
I film horse racing but with a camcorder. I notice all my videos are soft and not focused. Would your recommend 60p or 120p. I feel like when I record in 120, everything is extremely soft.
Hi Alex, Does this aspect apply to mid range smartphone standard cameras as well. I shoot kids football using 4k@60fps and crop it to 1080p@30fps taking in the ball action area. my Redmi Note 7 Pro phone has f1.8
Hi, really good tips and nice content. What fps would you use for basketball game? Thanks
Can you explain what a 90 degree shutter angle is?
I’ve been shooting 120fps here lately for the football content I recently have been shooting and I overcranked the shutter too.
What framerate and shutter speed would be recommended for motorsports especially when the subject goes past me really fast? I would also like to retain ability to create sharp slowmo so i guess 60fps would be minimum (?) but how about the shutter speed? Would i benefit to go even faster shutter than 1/120? And is there some sort of industry standard that is used for example in F1/WRC/Nascar etc?
I think for motorsports 60 frames is probably a really good frame rate just because things are happening so fast that you’re not gonna notice the fact that you might not slow the footage down at times. In terms of shutter speed, I would say try 180 and see how that works.
Is shooting 60fps at 180 degree shutter dropped on 24p timeline the same look as shooting 24p at 90 degree shutter?
No if you dropped the shutter angle your going to get a more jittery looking image because there’s less motion blur. It’s going to look closer to 60 frame footage without slowing it down.
It’s great for exaggerating motion.
Or.... Just use 60p at 360° shutter angle...
It has similar motion blur to 24p at 180° shutter angle (when played at normal speed, slow motion it will look too blurry).
24p at 180° SA = 1/48 shutter speed
30p at 180° SA = 1/30 shutter speed
60p at 360° SA = 1/30 shutter speed
You have to have your settings dialed in on your camera IMO
what is a 90 degree angle shutter speed ?
Typically what you’re supposed to do is have your shutter double your frame rate and this is called a 180° shutter angle. So a 90° shutter would be your frame rate and shutter pretty much the same so if you shoot at 60 frames, you would have your shutter set to 60 and what that would do is make your footage have a lot less motion blur
Do you think flickering caused by gaseous lamps will affect our setting of shutter angle?
paul joy did a video on why your 60 fps video looked terrible and its beacuse you were trying for 180 degree shutter but you need to do 360 for changing between slow-mo and normal speed depending on your specific artistic or crisp interpretation for the shot
Paul Joy is a real videographer, whereas this Alex guy is just parroting old outdated bad advice having no idea what he's talking about. I don't know if it's hillarious or sad that someone would say "60p is bad, because it looks weird when I take it down to 24p" or "You always have to use 180 degree shutter at 60p, because of... uuhm.. reasons"
I Export in 25 fps and shoot in 50 fps😁
Thats your style but it doesn't feel good for me.
I dunno man, this just sounded like you copied and pasted what every other video on TH-cam says about the 180 rule. overrated. regurgitating something without legitimate reasoning behind it makes no sense. also the high aperture is really only a black magic shooter issue, the rest of us have great auto focus, or focus pullers.
