Step-Printing: The RIGHT WAY to Avoid Common MISTAKES

[@user-th1vv3iw8b]

Quite literally the best video I’ve seen on this effect. Informative and to the point, answered questions I didn’t even know I had. Thank you for this man.

[@TenfoldProduction]

Glad this helped. We wanted to sum up our years of trial and error in a digestable video. Cant wait to see what yoy create with it!

[@BennieWoodell]

I always did step printing when I shot on film, it's my favorite technique since watching Hong Kong cinema back in the 90's. Shoot at 6fps, get it back from telecine and slow it down to 24fps and you're good to go. I had figured out years ago how to achieve it with the Sony EX-1 thirteen years ago or so, but had forgotten and I'm just now trying to get back into making films and needed a refresher on how to do it digitally. This is great!

[@petersee12]

Have a shoot tomorrow and this is the effect I'm trying to achieve. This is extremely helpful. Thank you.

[@TenfoldProduction]

Glad this helped! Hope the shoot went well

[@TheKodakChris]

Followed immediately. I didn’t even know what this was called and have been wanting to learn how to do it. So glad you just happened to come up on my recommended

[@TenfoldProduction]

Good to hear! Hope you find success adding to your work

[@TheKodakChris]

@@TenfoldProduction thank you. Also love your style of videos. I checked out a few. The way you break down the production process is truly impressive

[@matt.banton]

Thank you! I'm just about to do a shoot where we will use this effect. Never done it before and this was super insightful.

[@AustinHo]

This is such a great video and such a killer overall channel. I’m one of many people looking to level up their commercial work in a creative and authentic to the industry sort of way. Just wanted to say thanks for pushing some high level knowledge out to those of us that missed film school.

[@TenfoldProduction]

@@AustinHo thanks for the great message man! Means alot

[@nene-music-official]

Exactly what I needed, thank you!!

[@Jona]

nice thx, have to try it

[@aidanrogers1087]

Thansk for making this! Have you noticed on the Komodo when you drop down to 6fps or whatever, the shutter angle cannot go higher than 180 degree so you can’t get the 360 degree angle which is where the magic happens :(

[@filmowaniezprofitem]

This is very creative effect that I first saw on Your videos. Thank You for sharing that, becouse I've alredy see use for it :)

Thank you, we love to use it in our work!

Thanks ! Looks like a cool effect to film a dancer or a blury POV shot !

Thanks for the breakdown! How come you don’t set the FX3 at a lower frame rate in S&Q mode when step-printing?

Hey! Could you please give us some insight on how to create those great few frame transition clips like you show at 0:24? I absolutely love this technique of transitioning between segments of my video, but I just don't know how to go about making them.

[@LouMonestime]

I wonder if the upcoming fx3 update will allow for the shutter angle method when it comes out?

[@ahmadoff-on]

Thanks a lot for the great explanation! I've always wondered how to do this properly. How do you apply this to a European standard with a frame rate of 25 fps when using a shutter angle? Since 25 can't be divided by 8, it seems tricky to get the right speed in post-production.

[@TenfoldProduction]

No problem we are glad this was of use. for 25 it kind works the same way just the percentage is different. For example if you shot at 3 fps and want that for a 25 Fps timeline you would: 25/3=8.33. So you would set the percentage of time in your edting software to 8.333%. Hope this helps!

[@erwinge]

Awesome! I alsways asked myself how you get this nice grain! Do you use an overlay or Dehancer? Keep up the great work love it!

[@TenfoldProduction]

Usually our colourist haha. The grain is either base light or DaVinci resolve! We’ve been fans of dehancer or filmconvert grains too.

[@khamitalexander7343]

If I slow down my clip to normal speed using your formula (24 / 3 = 8) will I get duplicate frames? Thank you

[@NolimitDayler]

Is it possible to do in post production?

[@orthopriyoa.7148]

Brooo !! 🔥🔥

[@financial_age]

What about the panasonic S5II, should you just set shutter angle to 1/360 in 24fps (dont think there is a difference between base and recording with panasonic?)

[@TenfoldProduction]

Hey! Shutter angle should be a whole number like 360. Shutter speed is a fraction. Unfamiliar with that camera so if you have more information so we can provide more insight.

[@shyaboutmyart]

so I guess I'm curious in the edit, if im doing say a music video and I recorded everything in 24 p and my time line is 24p , when trying to make this effect what would I do since the time line needs to be in 8 in order for it to shop properly ? Because when I try to change it on premiere wouldn't me putting it in 8 ruin the entire project ?

[@trizzleseven]

what's the benefit of filming this in kind of a timelapse and slow it down again in post? Can't the venice go further than 360 deg?

[@Moguandleo]

Does it work with Fujifilm Xt3?

[@richarddzisiewski7197]

nice...Slow shutter is so underused!

[@TenfoldProduction]

100% It's an awesome tool to use. Thanks Richard

[@joaocorreiamedia]

It sort of feels like a gimmick these days. Everyone uses it when there's zero motivation on the scene to do so. It's pretty cool, but it needs to serve a purpose. Slapping this in the middle of video without any reason to feels cheap.

[@AlchemistEskimo]

I agree with the other commenter, it’s honestly completely overused in music videos and cheaper commercial work nowadays. It feels gimmicky and often used without purpose. It’s undeniably a cool technique but when used with no motivation it just feels cliche and a slapped on

[@iamalexchua]

Its actually overused nowadays. Everything is using step printing even for static subjects

[@legitimatejones]

My camera is a canon c500 Mk II. But for some reason I am not able to go down to 3fps. My camera stops at 12 fps … is there a work around for the math?

[@TenfoldProduction]

Hey you would just have to slow down the footage to 50% (12/24 turned into a percentage) it won’t be as blurry but if you can set your shutter to 360 degrees it’s should help

[@MrGxmxe]

C300 MKiii owner here and I was wondering the same thing. Did you end up trying it? How were your results?

[@hemanshupareek_1]

Put you video setting like 4k 30fps then try to lower your shutter maybe it will help

[@legitimatejones]

@@hemanshupareek_1even going to 4k 30fps I could go past 12fps.

[@geimzz]

Why set it at 24fps if you’re trying to capture 3?

[@sujanhariharanr22]

I am confused by the shutter angle method, I have the Panasonic Lumix S5iix with shutter angle, how can u change the recording frame rate 3fps(guess u mean using the S&Q) in these types of cameras.

[@getfmlr]

You camera has to have the capability to do it first. On my camera, it's called VFR or Variable Frame Rate. You can literally set it to any frame rate even in single digit increments. Ie...1fps, 3fps, 10fps,etc.

[@mfundomzolo4498]

Riddley Scott

[@apipmyblack]

how do you set 3fps?

[@getfmlr]

Not every camera has this capability. If yours doesn't then use the shutter method.

[@EntirelyHonest]

New studio eh

[@Yartin]

step 1: slow the shutter that's it.

[@shemmo]

2:20 still going to show... go right to the point, you are too much teasing, i give up
