CAMERA FPS / Divided by / PROJECT FPS = (X) Multiplied by 100% 30/24 = 1.25 X 100% = 125% 60/24 = 2.5 X 100% = 250% 120/24 = 5 X 100% = 500% 300/24 = 12.5 X 100% = 1,250%

Excellent Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you thought about - Riddleagan handling camera Remedy (just google it)? It is a great one of a kind guide for making sales videos super fast and make money minus the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my work buddy at last got amazing results with it.

[@corbinwisneski7219]

How come I film in 60 FPS on my camera, and then I put it into premiere pro and It’s no longer 60fps, it’s now 30 FPS and I can’t do slow mo

[@justinburgan]

@@corbinwisneski7219 make sure your sequence setting is set to the desired to FPS for your deliverable. transcode footage to sequence fps, footage should be naturally slowed down at this point depending on what you shot it in.

Thank you ! 1 question Is there any difference in quality if you 60 fps, convert to 24 fps and speed up vs just shooting 24 fps?

@@justinburgan Hi Justin, can I just clarify something? So assuming i shoot my footage at 60 fps, but i edit in premier pro in 24 fps. So basically i should increase my footage speed to 250%. But if i want the 60fps slow-mo vibes, i should let it remain at normal 100%? Not sure if i make any sense haha.

[@Gosk]

Great video. Note that the audio wil not be inpitch. Even when hitting maintain pitch, at least for me, the pitch locks on to the already adjusted version so it's higher. It can be fixed to ear but I haven't found another, quicker way.

[@justinburgan]

It depends, if it the audio is baked in or "linked", then yes, you are correct. It won't always be the same. UNLESS, the audio is slowed down or sped up with the clip. Audio is recorded around the 48khz which it doesn't matter what timeline you are in (24,30,60fps) what does matter is if you slow down the audio while it's sync. As long as your audio is trimmed / sync'd to the clips length. It should match correctly. Slating and timecode will help solve this issue as well. Anything off speed however typically doesn't pair well and calls for sound design or more attention. Hope this helps!

[@Dolphinlaugh]

dude this is genius! Thanks a lot!

[@nicoc6109]

Thank you. Shot on a RED this weekend.. Decreased my speed to 80, so I did the inverse of the adding 25 to 100. I subtracted 15, didn't synch, then 20 to get it completely synched. The ideology and your method fixed it.

Just what I needed, thank you Justin, you have a new subscriber.

[@TKBthemkrisleboys]

Wassup Justin, I appreciate your informative content! It’s helped me a lot. However, I am having an issue and I’m hoping you can help me out. I shoot hunting videos wearing a gopro filming at 1080 and 60fps. I film at 60 because it seems to reduce the motion blurr when I’m looking around and such. My problem is, when I create a 24fps timeline and convert all my footage to 24fps, the motion blur is pretty bad on my video when in the timeline. Idk if I should maybe create a timeline with a higher fps? Or is there something with shutter speed? I’m not sure and hoping you could help me out. I’m just trying figure out how I can make smooth looking action content. Thanks for any help bud!

[@justinburgan]

Hey dude, sick! Love hunting content. Have filmed a few hunts myself. You're correct on 60fps lessening the motion blur. Film buffs will want to say 24fps feels more pleasing to the eye, which it is. However, 60fps will allow you to capture more detail, hence being able to slow it down and retaining detail. It's a preference thing. So, a few things here. First, the GoPro might you're main problem here. Especially if it's on auto. Take a look into shutter speed and play around with it. Typically you'll want to shoot at 1/120 or 1/125 when shooting 60fps. This ensures fluidity in the shot. Sometimes GoPros will under/over cranking shutter speeds based on the light it reads. Which in return doesn't give you a consistent look. You can solve this by using ND filters on the camera. Abe Kislevitz is the go to on all things GoPro. He lays out some really good settings. You could try creating a 60fps timeline as well and NOT transforming your footage. This might also be a look you are trying to go for. Test around and have fun with it. Hope it goes well. Feel free to comment back with any more questions. Good luck on the stalks. Cheers, JB

[@geraldine-211]

Thanks so much! Also wanted to ask if you could make an infographic or a metaphorical analogy so I could better understand frame rate. Here are ideas that idk might not be useful but I have these Qs anyway and maybe could help Why are different iPhone videos taken one after another showing slightly different frame rate (59.96 and then 60.02)? Is this because of lighting conditions and the Camera app algorithm? Why does Premiere use 24 frames per second as a default? How does speeding up a clip to 125% work technically? I found this cool article "What's the difference between 59.94fps and 60fps?" on tv technology and maybe you could explain some of it? Just in general, what are the fundamental principles of film so I can have first-principles thinking mindset towards filmmaking in general, all aspects. THANK YOU

[@haroldriverofilms]

You just saved my life? I love you man

[@Draatmans]

So to be clear.. if you edit a 60 FPS footage on 30 fps time line and render it as 30 fps but after interpreting those 30 fps and speeding up will they still bet 30 fps? :D and if so what happens after rendering? So lost in here

[@justinburgan]

yes correct, you would be transforming 60fps to 30fps into "real time" at 30fps by speeding it up to 200%

Yes, so as long as the footage as been > Modified > Interpret Footage in your source bin, the same % still apply. I can make a video on this as well! I do this all the time to do speed ramps!

[@justcarryonnow]

Can't I just drop the 30fps footage on 24fps timeline and watch it real time? Would the 6 drop frames affect the look? And when needed to slow down, change the speed to 80%.

[@justinburgan]

Is your timeline at 24fps? and have you tried rendering it to see if it renders out choppy? Could also be a shutter speed errror in camera when shooting if it's not double your frame rate: 1/60th if shot at 30fps

[@AdilShahOfficial]

@@justinburgan Thank you so much for quick reply :) My timeline is 24fps , Yes i did try rendering its choppy , i didnt check the shutter speed while shooting , i feel like its shutter speed error , is there any fix to this issue ?

[@justinburgan]

@@AdilShahOfficial if there's a lot of motion on the shot with an overcranked shutter, it will look choppy. Do you have to play the clip back in real time? Maybe leave it 100% instead of speeding it up to 125%.. this will slow down the footage and maybe "clean" it up a bit. If not, i'd look into some motion blur software or a plugin. Maybe find one in AE? The gopro plugin found on there website is pretty good as well! Warp stabilizer may also give it a "cleaner" look. Look into some ND filters so you can keep that shutter lower :)

[@AdilShahOfficial]

@@justinburgan Yup Thanks alot , I am leaving it to 100% it looks good , and i will keep in mind this thing before shooting :)

Why does it shows the slow motion display whenever i drag my arrow rather than the speed up display in my timeline?

[@joannalovell9434]

Should i match all my video clips to the same frame rate at the beginning of the project? And why? Will it help with syncronization later on? Or will it help when i make sub clips? I like to know the why behind something. I did find this helpful, so thanks.

[@justinburgan]

Yes, you should make all your footage the same fps to make them congruent. Be sure to make sure your footage fps matches your project timeline fps. You do this because you want your footage to look the same when it renders out. If you don't do this, a multitude of things could go wrong such as drop frames, render issues, etc.

[@joannalovell9434]

@@justinburgan Thank you very much for the advice. All the footage I use is out of my control and shot by individuals for a virtual choir. They are all over the place. I worry to about the resolution. Is it more important to match the resolution before creating a sequence?

[@joannalovell9434]

Its worth noting that there is no camera movement. Simply movement of the head a little while singing. Camera is most likley and iphone on a tripod. Im wondering if that makes the resolution the more important factor.

Sir I have a handycam. Its FPS is 60. How to correctly fit that clip while editing in Premiere Pro. Thanks

[@ScottSkywalker]

After you interpret the footage can you then speed it up and slow it down to whatever you want, or will that then affect the frame rate?

[@justinburgan]

Yes, so once you interpret your footage, your footage will be slow down based on the difference of your project timeline vs what your footage was shot in. (See the breakdown in the comments) you will then have to adjust your speed duration (can also do this with time re-mapping) to get it back to real time OR you can leave it slowed by leaving it at 100%. Lastly, as long as your shutter speed was double your fps while shooting, you should not have any weird looking footage. If you slow your footage down too much, it will skip or drop frame because those frames do not exist. Cheers!

I am new to this and have a real film nightmare on my hands. I recently found lost film shot back in the 1960's in my basement that flooded. The film was boxed and in cans so no water damage. Most of the film looks as good as when it was shot. Some of the film is regular 8mm 16fps. silent/no sound, some is super 8mm 24fps Sound on mag stripe and some is 16mm Crystal Synch 24 fps.MOS. (Sound recorded on casette) using in synch recorder This film was shot when I was much younger to make a feature horror film that was never finished then stored away when I moved and lost for over 50 years. So now that it is found I decided to try to finsh the movie. I transferred the 8mm and Super 8mm film using my Wolverine Moviemaker Pro to the chip it uses and the 16mm film was transferred by being projected and filmed by a digital video camera. I have all the films on a digital chip now. Pinnacle Studio 15 is my editing program. How would you deal with something like this. My goal is to combine all 3 film types into a flowing movie.

[@justinburgan]

sorry for the late reply, didn't see this comment come thru. you could go two ways here in my opinion: 1, make the project 24fps and intrepret the 16fps to 24fps and then instead of speeding it up like this tutorial, you'd slow it down to get back to real time. this might work. you could always leave it at 16fps and make it feel artistic, but i dont know if that's what you want to go for.

Will this cause any audio issues when speeding back up to real time?

[@justinburgan]

it depends on how your audio is wrapped with your video, but normal no issues.

[@santosfaab]

I guess it will happen if you don't make the math and change to a wrong speed after interpret footage! But in my opinion I stick on keep my higher framerate files at my lower framerate size (for slowmotion) by changing the sequence framerate before drop it, get it? Still looking if this can cause me any issue including audio not sync or a frame loss during playback/exported file.
