How To Speed Ramp Interpreted Footage in Premiere Pro

[@whoismatt]

Hey! I would recommend watching my Frame Rates EXPLAINED video first if you're not sure what I'm talking about in this video 😂 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZeUoJdoraiUfLs

[@MrTakeOne]

Matt WhoisMatt Johnson lol what if I know all this already? 😷👌🏾 jk I love learning stuff I already know bc it helps me refresh my memory lol I make no sense hope I didn’t waste your time by u reading this boring a.. comment lol thanks for video tho lol ok bye 😷👍🏾

i think u can make it more smoother with the blue line in middle of start and end of it. just pull it

[@T332009]

Hi Matt, question - with reference to your frame rates explained video, you show how playing the 30 FPS and 60 FPS footage is choppy played at normal speed on the 24 FPS timeline due to the dropped frames which makes perfect sense, however when speed ramping parts of 60 FPS clip (interpreted as 23.976) up to 250% as shown in this video aren’t we going to run into the same problem where the parts of the slow mo clip we want to play at normal speed will be choppy as it’s effectively the same thing as playing non interpreted 60 FPS footage at 24 FPS? Will we still be loosing frames on the parts of the clip played at ‘normal speed’ using the method shown in this video and have that same choppy feel? Much appreciate your reply, Thank you

[@kernmahabir5368]

The part where I have it as “real time” the footage looks choppy. How to fix this?

[@adianarivera9527]

I just want to say this video is about to change my entire editing game! I learned how to actually utilize my frame rates because of your last video. I was running into issues when trying to play with speed after interpreting it but now, NO MORE! Thank you! Thank you!

[@wcsdiaries]

Your tutorials are so thorough and simple. Best teacher on youtube

[@isaacryan4034]

I was legitimately having so many issues tryina figure this out just the other day- as I decided I'd edit everything in the same frame rate and then had issues with the interpreted footage wigging out due to me using regular speed ramping methods (was dragging the wrong side of the ramp) and i thought the program was broken LOL- now I don't have to re-edit that whole timeline- thanks so much dude- ABSOLUTE lifesaver haha

[@chasingluminance]

You’re seriously the best teacher on Premiere Pro

[@mtngrave]

Been scratching my head trying to answer this on my own. I had no idea the pin point "V" you mentioned split apart. Quick KZbin search and resolved. Thank you, Mr. Johnson!

[@whoismatt]

😁👍

[@MrTerryRay1]

Thanks Matt! You've made speed ramping understandable just like you have with frame rates, interpreting footage, and proxies. I kinda feel dumb to say this but I didn't know that the back side of the speed ramp had to be adjusted. I can see that you have to because interpreted footage is already slowed down. And I see that you have to adjust it to 250% (250% of 24 fps = 60 fps) to bring the back side to normal speed. This is something I've always wanted to know, but didn't know how to ask the question. I think will help me with a speed ramping problem I've been having and couldn't find an answer. :)

[@PicsbyTower]

PicsbyTower here.. thank you and thank you man. My videos are now on a another level!!

[@GenesTherapy]

Thank you! And you taught me something else without you even knowing it....I can add a curve bezier to the ramp! Bravo Matt! (new sub)

[@mattiebrownoz]

Excellent mate. I've watched your how to deal with proxy video so many times, but then forget it all again as I do quick edits through Lumafusion all the time. That is a really good video you do, but the workflow kills me when I'm in a rush. Thanks for making these vids. Matty.

[@FilmFantasy]

Hello Matt, your contribution to Filmography is remarkable, can you ask you something please? If you have a 119,88fps footage that you have interpret to 23,976fps and then create proxy for that clip, when you do time remaping the preview get crazy, how to you solve that problem? (thank you!)

[@yazidikurdishboy9936]

It was a very good explanation actually, now I can do it too, thank you!

[@gamaunglahpai3462]

Can I get the easiest method of colour grading. I am one of your subscriber. I'm from Myanmar. Thanks.

[@SileaThorEnIslandia]

I like to make it in after effects, you can control the ease in and ease out and make it softer

[@channeljuan9714]

new premiere user here, I used to edit with final cut. One thing i can’t do or don’t know how to do here in premiere is to speed ramp a reversed clip. I like to edit with whip in camera transitions but sometimes i need to reverse the clip so that i can match the last clips whip. But everytime i do it in premiere, it won’t let me and the clip I want to edit changes to another scene of the clip. I know, it doesn’t make sense.. 😔😔

[@Stomped500k]

how do you speed ramp the audio though

[@jackngaruiya6494]

This is Very Informative and simple to use man

[@kelseywinter5498]

TOTES MA GOATS.

[@byFilipeCardoso]

Have been doing the same way as you! But I was wondering if you or anyone knows how to work with the audio of a interpreted clip. Case: Clip was recorded at 60fps and interpreted as 23.976fps. The audio is now as slow as the clip and unusable, but I want to use it as ambiance. Speeding up the sound doesn't seem to work as it keeps playing at a super low pitch. Instead of changing the pitch, I find easier to have two versions of the same clip inside the project. One for the video and other for the ambiance sound. But I hate having duplicates in the project. Do you know any workarounds? Damn this comment got long 😅

[@surj93]

Hey Matt, just wanted to share a process I do as well that you can try yourself and see if it helps your workflow. Instead of interpreting footage, which does get complicated, especially with proxies, I simply lower the speed of my 60FPS footage to 40%. It has the same effect as interpreting the footage to 23.976. Try it and lmk what you think.

[@KennethGreenCMP]

Already liked it but came back to it in 05/24!

[@mrblackbond]

Dude! Great job! You never fail to impress! Thank you!

[@therainman8703]

I edit in 120 frame time line then export when I'm done in 24 don't know why but this makes me work on the clip more effectively.

[@davidburchettephotography6513]

Very good vid and you take the time to explain a little more clearly than some others... which I greatly appreciate. On the speed ramp, bézier curve can take that ramp to the next level, yes? Although maybe not needed except for certain situations. Btw, first came across you with your $1400 vid editing build. Went with the 3900X and not looking back. Awesome. Thanks.

[@grafinx]

Interpret before putting on timeline. Quick note: Interpret footage option was not actually meant to slow down footage (I asked a adobe prem pro worker). That's what the speed duration option is for. If you do use the interpret footage method, you will run into problems when speed ramping and/or use proxies. Use speed duration option instead. Interpret footage option is to fix the frame rate to match your sequence settings frame rate (eg. from 29.97 to 30fps). Reason being, If you ever try to dynamic link from premiere pro to after effects to use for example rotobrush tool, you won't get the "frame rate mismatch" error, where ya have to start all over again in prem pro. To recap my advice: Use speed duration for slow motions, and use interpret footage to avoid frame rate mismatch errors (especially when using dynamic link to after effects). Hope this helped ♥

[@lestersantos4827]

Hi Matt, Thank you for the video. I'm running in some situation. For example I shot a clip in 60fps and slowed down as you. But when i try to bring it back to normal speed, the clip jump to other part of the video. Any thought on why is this happening? thank you.

[@jonnycarr3573]

Same thing happening to me mate, really choppy and difficult

[@basselzaki]

My videos looks chubby although I record at 60 fps and use optical flow..pls advice

[@abidakalil9071]

Hi Matt, the only issue that I have right now is that the part that I speed up to real time(250%) looks jiddery and stutter. It is not pretty smooth. It’s looks like a 60fps footage playing in 24fps sequence settings without interpreting the footage (just like in your fps video). How can I make the speed up part looks smooth? P/s: sorry for my bad english.

[@T332009]

Exactly my question, defeats the purpose of interpreting to 23.967 in the first place if you use speed ramps

[@aymanalfayez]

If there are clips before and after, I would like to know what will happen to them?

[@JazzBanjo]

How did you determine 250% was the correct amount to get to normal speed? What would it be on a 30fps timeline?

[@srirajk2318]

@MattWhoisMattJohnson Dude I am literally doing the same thing shot the video in 60fps and interpreted the video to 23.976 and checked it in 24fps both ways but when I make the clip 250 percentage faster the clip begins from the start/beginning again in the same slow speed but when I make it 190 percentage it speeds up but not to realtime, anything above 190 it begins from the start again what is it I am doing wrong in here?Can anyone help?

[@Webrisernl]

Maybe a dumb question I have some 120fps slowmotion footage.. can it also be changed to normal footage and do creative things with it?

[@rovethewild]

when i do this and then play the clip, in the part where the speedchange is its all messed up with the frames. it shows different parts of the clip totally weird

[@Harthual]

I'm having the same issue. When buffering through it looks normal, but then the clip gets shortened. Did you ever figure it out?

[@rovethewild]

@@Harthual i did! Nest the clip before applying any effect (right click on clip > nest...) worked fine in my case! Cheers 🤙

[@FaustoEstupinan]

all this time i had been using direct cut of different speeds, thanks Matt

[@whoismatt]

Glad to help! Haha I’ve done that before!

[@ivanyamson]

Hey Matt, do you happen to know how to change the hotkey for Ctrl + L Click? Mine seems to have changed and I can't do these speed edits on the clip itself anymore... thanks!

[@dam1rche193]

I adore your videos man!

[@aftab_chandio]

Wow you just solved my problem thanks mate....

[@odysseyfilms6652]

This was so good, I have been using FCPX so far and it's been so easy for me to switch between frame rates as I don't have to do anything it interprets by itself, I guess?, I shoot on GH5 4K60 all the time with audio, so I can literally ramp any segment that I shoot, but I am switching to windows now since apple hardware is impossible, My MBP 2017 is failing me in different ways, knowing this really eases me out, although I am thinking of going Resolve, since I prefer resolve grading tools.

Hey thanks for the video, do the speed ramp work with proxy files ? Like if we replace the proxy by the original footage do we keep the speed ramping effect ?

[@emilbaligod1935]

Hi Matt! Can we do the same to play at normal speed the 60fps in sequence with 24.976fps too when editing video clips with different fps?

[@thevanekslasvegasfoodvlog]

Another great video. Question. How do you speed ramp a reversed clip? Every time I try. The footage gets all wonky.

[@whoismatt]

Nest it first

[@maryfrancismillan2196]

New subscriber here, thank you for your tips.

[@HuntressMedia]

Wow, this really opens up doors and answers questions I didn't even know how to form! Thank you again for a great eye-opening video. Such a "seemingly" simple concept. but (as with many things "Premiere Pro") Who Knew??? There's been many an occasion when I was trying to speed ramp interpreted footage and had just weird stuff happening - so used other ways or skipped it altogether. One question - and maybe this is simple too - what percentages do you use for the various frame rates to be "normal speed?" This one was a 60 FPS clip interpreted to 24 FPS so 250% was what you dragged it back to for normal speed...so for 30 FPS, or 120 FPS, trying to do the math...come up with a formula...or just ask Matt! Thanks!

If you want to know the real values for the Max Slowdown of each clip based on it's specific framerate, go to this link: www.zapstudio.net/framecalc/ And in there go down until the "Max slowdown of a clip" section. Insert the values and it will give you the different percentages to which you can speed up/slow down a clip based on the project framerate you choose. Try switching up the frame rates on the form and see the different results! Hope it helps!

[@SukaProductionsLLC]

Do you have a keyboard shortcut to display the time remapping keyframes?

[@paulhall580]

Can the same thing be done if you change the timeline settings in sequence settings in Premiere Pro to 23.976 fps? I don't interpret the footage before it hits the timeline, I usually get it on the timeline then change the sequence settings. What do you suggest? Thanks Matt! :-)

[@vizualizefilmsllc6225]

What if your interpret footage section is all white out? I cannot change the factors in the interpret footage section?

[@nateduran11]

You’re a wizard!

[@thetoppicks4677]

Hello matt, how many percent will i going to make if i wanted to play a 120 fps into a normal speed? (24fps timeline). Thank you Matt..

[@maryfrancismillan2196]

Thank you for the tips.

[@Bonewmobile]

Thanks for the guide and all your knowlodge

[@400080vikkash]

I have a very fast pc and when I do speed ramp it freezes my time line playback and I can't work at all.. Know if that's some glitch? It's very frustrating.

[@sonybvizualsfilms6011]

Thank you one of my biggest questions

[@Tlaptopmac2]

Just what i was looking for thank you bro

[@DanielTuriman]

What the calculation for do s frame eate at camera 50fps to convert normal speed 23.976?

[@PaulSebastianmedia]

Hey Matt, thanks for this video! I have 1 issue. Whenever I want to fast forward clips that are interpreted into 23.976 they end up getting cut up and I believe only can speed up to 800% Sometimes I want to speed up to around 2000% How can I speed up my footage without the clip getting cut up from what looks like skipped over frames. Do you already have a video explaining this? Thanks!

[@whoismatt]

Hey Paul! The latest version of premiere lets you speed up clips faster than 1000% now. You can speed them up to 20,000 I believe

[@areeszgandhistudios]

I am having the same issue. Earlier I used to able to speed up more than 800 percent and if I do it now it just skips the clip to some other random frame. what's the solution to this?

[@DEPARTE]

i've seen this tutorial by peter mckinnon where if i remeber correctly what he was doing was speeding up the clip to the max, then nesting it, then speeding it up again and so on.

[@areeszgandhistudios]

@@DEPARTE Hey man, yes thanks I have seen that video and I know one can nest it. But a couple of months back Premiere had released an update in which one could speed up the video a lot more. But now since a few weeks it is not happening. Its the recent updates that have caused this I am assuming.

[@Nikica358]

Just what I was searching for ! Thank you Matt!!

[@whoismatt]

Awesome Nicky!

[@wcsdiaries]

@@whoismatt doesn't the sped up 60 fps to real time look choppier than standard 24fps in real time? is there a way to fix that?

[@brockflash116]

My footage doesn’t have the yellow fx icon. How could i possibly enable that?

[@SilvermanTricking]

I have the same

[@infinityphotorob]

I have a weird issue when I do this. As I scrub in timeline after speed ramp I get a still image that is no where near the time I am scrubbing. It makes virtually impossible to work. Many others on the Premiere pro Forum on Adobe have same issue. I hoped new update would fix but it has not. I am on an AMD Threadripper system. It kills me that this isn't an option for me. Maybe it is the 23.975 vs just putting 24?

[@maxlord2972]

but what i don't understand is - won't the footage sped up to normal motion now have that choppy appearance of high frame-rate footage playing in a lower frame-rate sequence? that's the problem im having - will optical flow sort this out? I shot in 50fps and have interpreted to 23.976 in a 23.976 sequence. once sped up to normal motion, the footage is jittery compared to if it were playing in a 50fps sequence (smooth). does anyone have any tips? is 50fps just weird? i wasn't aware of the concept of PAL vs NTSC until i encountered this problem

[@evancriscuolo2693]

Question about this: So, I have done this before but when I try to go frame by frame through the footage after the ramp is applied it renders incorrectly. its almost like its frozen and it just keeps rendering the wrong frame (usually the same one over and over from another part of the clip) as I am moving the playhead. As soon as the playhead motion stops the computer figures out what the frame should look like and it changes but this makes it very difficult to work. any idea what that's about?

[@Mattithias]

Evan Criscuolo are you editing with proxies? If not, that may help. That used to happen with me until I started using proxies. Another option is to right click then select render and replace.

[@DrewMalarkey]

Same thing happens to me, I presumed it was just another Premiere bug

[@DELINQUENTZ]

so speed ramping slow mo footage up to 250% every time will bring it back to 23.976? great to know thanks

Hi Matt, I'm having an issue with this. I have a clip filmed in 60fps and I've interpreted it to 23.976fps and dragged it onto my 23.976fps timeline. The Fx button is not yellow on my timeline, and when I right click, Time Remapping, and click motion, it doesn't allow me to slow down the footage. When I hold down command, it doesn't change the icon at all. Am I doing something wrong here?

[@vishalsangi3989]

So now playing a 60fps footage in realtime in 24fps timeline results in dropping half of the frames(also depends on the % you choose)but the drop is inevetable.which results in more shake in the video right?

If I record dialogue at 60 fps, should I interpret the footage and then bring it up to 250% for nomral speed?

[@illusioniste00]

[@kyrgeorge]

A question Matt: When you interpreted your 60fps source footage to 23.976fps, it means that premiere slowed it down to 50%. Then why you choose to speed it up to 250% to get normal speed?

When you interpret 59.94fps to 23.976fps, Premiere now takes the 23.976fps clip as the 100% speed. Meaning if you are going to change that to play at real-time speed, you will have to speed up the clip to 250%. Conversely, if you don't interpret the 59.94fps clip, Premiere will understand that 59.94fps clip as the 100% speed, so if you want to slow it down you will have to speed down the clip to 40% speed. If you want to know the real values for the Max Slowdown of each clip based on it's specific framerate, go to this link: www.zapstudio.net/framecalc/ And in there go down until the "Max slowdown of a clip" section. Insert the values and it will give you the different percentages to which you can speed up/slow down a clip based on the project framerate you choose. Hope it helps!

Thank you

[@BLADE-4]

Hey Matt. So I have multi fps footage. I interpreted everything to 24.00 fps. I performed all my cuts, timing to music and thank goodness I did not color grade. Why. Because when I exported, to see how the project was coming together, all kinds of really weird things happened. 1. One clip is frozen, 30fps. Nothing. It plays like it is an image not video. 2. Another clip starts at the beginning of the CLIP not where my cut is 30fps. ?? Yet another clip which is 60 fps, infact most of my 60fps footage plays in really slow mo and is . The sequence settings are set to a 24.00 timeline. Went to Adobe 3 times they did not know how to fix it. Proxies. I am using proxies, however, I used some other video other than yours (to experiment) since he claims he is doing it the right way. lol Hmm. Not sold on that. Anyway, he was teaching things a little different than you do. For instance he was claiming do not use H.264 for the proxy and other stuff. Does not matter what it was that he was teaching as I am starting over and going to back to your settings for for all. The question is... Do you think the proxy settings could have caused all the havoc with my project? All things equal? Simply wondering what your take might be? Things to try? Things to stay way away from lol? Thanks Matt.

[@jetfu400]

Love this guy.

[@afobainofilms646]

U re the boss thanks 🙏

[@RingRoadSessions]

what if it's 120fps? What do we bump up the speed to if not 250%?

[@alienanxiety]

60 x 2 is 120. So 250 x 2 is 500. The answer is 500%.

[@Staystrongbrotherx]

So does 250% always = normal speed? Eg an interpreted 100fps clip in a 23.97 timeline?

[@thevanekslasvegasfoodvlog]

No. 250% is only normal speed for 60fps on 24fps time line. I think 100fps would be roughly 400%

[@steveloudon7491]

After interpreting the footage it is reduced to 40 percent of the original speed. To get it back to original speed you have to speed out up by two and a half times. 250% of 40 is 100 percent, or in other words, the original speed. If you were shooting at 120 frames per second, the interpretation would reduce the speed to one fifth of the original speed ie 120/24=5. So to get that back to the original speed you'd need to increase it by 500 percent.
