OverCrank with the 100B

Is there anyway to over crank a shot with the 100B? Produce slow motion in Progressive mode?

Thanks,
 
There isn't. You can shoot 60i and slow it down in post but other than that, there is no way to do it in camera.
 
Shoot 60i with a 1/120th shutter, then slow it to 40 percent on a 23.976 timeline. Only half rez, but legit 60fps slow motion.
 
Go to videocopilot.net and look up the tutorial for speed changes... Absolutely the greatest way to do this. You will need Adobe After Effects... And if I were you I would still shoot 60i, perform the effect, then take that rendered file and convert it to 23.976... If you don't know how to do that, he has a tutorial for that too! Awesome resource site!
 
this is probably an ULTRA-NOOB question, but....can I record 60i and 24/30P on the same tape? :zombie_smiley: I'm just wondering what implications that has during capture.

yes, you can.



The AE trick VC shows doesnt work that great all the time and sometimes is just crap (to put it lightly). Stick with the 60i>23.976fps trick and you'll get clean slomo every time.
 
I have gotten really nice, smooth slow-mo through another hack-overcrank method. Shoot 30P and use Cinema Tools to conform it to 23.98. Works very, very well, though it is only about a 20% speed reduction.

Let me see if I understand: i've been filming in 30p and there's something I want to film for slo-mo, so I flip it to 60i and film, then switch back to 30p and continue? Is that accurate?

Yep, I did that all the time on the DVX.

That works too. But with 30p as the time base, you'd be slowing the 60i to 50 percent instead of 60.

you wont have any trouble capturing this because the dv tape runs at one speed only.
The "24P" that the camera is still recording 30 frames per second but through some interesting mathematical pulldowns, makes it look like 24 frames per second. When editing, you can remove this pulldown to make it really 24 frames per second.
