![]() The part of the video where the girl can be seen running in the middle of the frame is a perfect example of a cinematic feel. By analyzing the video seen at the beginning of this article, you will realize that most of the clips are in slow motion and very stable. Slow motion effects are dramatic, hence they naturally give a cinematic feel due to the fluidity of the shot. It helps the user see all the details and the jump appears sleek on-screen.įor a shot like a kangaroo jump, I suggest a frame rate of 60fps to 120fps. In the example below, the jumping kangaroo was shot at a high frame rate and the video was played back in slow motion, showing a smooth jump. We can use slow motion effects to bring more attention to a specific action or detail. As a result, the viewer can process the action in a clear manner and understand exactly what’s happening on-screen.įor a very fast action like surfing, I suggest a frame rate of 120fps to 240fps. In this slow motion shot, we can observe the expressions on the surfer’s face along with a wall of water moving 8 times slower than normal. ![]() The frame shown below was taken from the official GoPro Hero 6 video seen on YouTube. Slow motion looks awesome, but what do we use slow motion for? Here are a few examples: #1: To Enhance Action Shots By doing so, 60 frames will be spread out in 2 seconds instead of 1, making your video appear slower than usual. Therefore, if you shoot at a higher frame rate, like 60fps (Setting 1), then you can slow down the footage by 2x because you only need 30fps in one second. Since the human eye perceives a fluid motion at about 20fps, the film industry has adopted a playback standard of 24, 25, or 30 frames per second. Setting 2 → Shooting at 30 Frame Per Second (FPS) Setting 1 → Shooting at 60 Frame Per Second (FPS) Imagine we have two different GoPro Settings: Let me give you an example to better understand the concept. GoPro does a pretty good job with slow motion: Hero 5, Hero 6, Hero 7, Hero 8, Hero 9, and Hero 10 can shoot at super slow motion up to 240fps in full HD. In other words, the camera takes a lot of still frames (60, 120, 240) per second, which appear slow, smooth and more stable when played at a normal speed. In order to achieve a slow motion effect, a camera has to be capable of shooting frames at a faster rate than they will be played back at. Slow motion refers to an effect where the footage appears to be moving slower than normal. HERO 6 (taken as a reference for this article).Slow Motion is available on these GoPro models:
