Overcranking look. . .

[Stephen Pruitt]

Hi all. . .

I'm interested in getting your opinions on whether if I shoot something overcranked to say 60fps I can then change my mind in post can I have it look the same as if it was shot at 24fps should I decide not to go slo-mo on those shots. I could keep the shutter at 180 degrees in all cases and editing in Premiere Pro.

Thanks!

Stephen

Wouldn't the best idea be to split the difference between the 180° shutters respective to both frame rates? 180° for 24 fps is 1/48, and for 60 fps is 1/120 so shoot at 1/(24+ (120 - 24)/2) = 1/96 s?

This is always a tough choice because the Shuter really makes the footage look different when sped up. Take a good look at the motion blur filter in Afrer Effects. It really does a good job at adding in the missing piece of the puzzle.
