2fps Hack instruction

Hi, I have the 2fps hack setup on my F2 setting and it records as such, but when I import it to Premiere, I'm not sure how to make it look like this example:

I've had the camera for 3 days and could use some help understanding this method. Thanks in advance!!

I think what you're seeing is how it's shot.
The camera operator made sure to do everything very slowly so the time shift wasn't as apparent when the footage was played back at full speed. It looks like there was a motorized head used in the panning shots and a VERY slow focus pull.

Thanks ProfessorU, I figured there was more to that shot, but I do another question. What is the difference between using the scene file 2fps hack with the SD card and using this setup described here (http://www.studiodaily.com/main/minisites/ag-hvx200/f/mtutorials/5993.html)?

The method Barry's talking about there isn't the hack. The slowest crank you can get that way is 12 fps (a.k.a. 1/2 standard film speed). Using the 2fps hack will go six times slower than that (1/12th of film speed or 1/15th SD TV speed), a significant difference.

Remember, every time you halve the framerate you double the available light, so it's possible to get some amazing nighttime sensitivity, very cool for those cars driving on freeways shots.
