Super slow motion

[hyphygreek]

So I'm looking everywhere but maybe I'm blind. But I'm shooting with the 7d and want to do super slow motion. I know Cinema tools can conform 60fps down to 24 and all that. But how would I slow it down to a super slow motion like 300fps. I have the FCP suite and Adobe CS5.

Well surprisingly enough I just discovered Twixtor. Unless there is a better way.

When you find it, let me know.......

To my understand you need to have a camera that can shoot at higher frame rates such as 120, these Canons only do 60fps. Also I heard of a program named twixtor that can allow better slow motion but I have never used it.

Twixtor is really the only way I know of and it can have really good results if you know how to use it.

Over at Creative Cow, they've got some good tutorials on Twixtor. You can get great results using it because it can interpolate frames instead of repeating them. You can get great results using it because it can interpolate frames instead of repeating them.

Wow, what an informative post. Wow what an informative post.

A couple of years ago, CaptainMench posted a good tutorial for slo-mo using Shake if you happen to have it.

Wow, I didn't realize the Capt went Bronze.

The only really semi effective ways to do this is with Twixtor as mentioned , AE's timewarp, Shake's retiming and Compressor's Optical Flow retiming. Some are better then others at certain things but they all use interpolation so it's going to be about as good as you can get without shooting it at say 300fps. There are many threads here and the net on these methods so a search will uncover many a tutorial.
