  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Would you shoot 3D at 24fps for, "the film look"?

I have done it, no big deal. That said, unless you have cameras that sync PERFECTLY, then the higher the frame rate the better your syncing works. Example, with a sync discrepancy of 1/3 of a frame between cameras, the difference will be a lot less noticeable at 30 fps than 24 fps. Then again, for filming nature and the like, 30 fps is ok, but for cinema projects that demand 24 fps, you have to go with that. Also, if you can choose your frame rate, keep in mind that higher frame rates decrease the problems that come with blurriness from pans or unwanted camera shakiness, all of which are very destructive o the 3D process and feel. I shoot 30 fps as a norm, and wish I could shoot at 48 really, and do 24 fps only when required.

I think that in the nearish future, 3D will move to 48fps, with 96fps field sequential, or 60 and 120. The faster the better for 3D I think. Motion blur is harder to deal with. I'm a total 3D noob tho.

24, 48 and 60fps are already in the full capacity of most Projectors and we have done some testing and as I said in the
David's thread, I like it better at 48fps, shot and projected, we did not tested the 60fps, but we will do so with Epic.

The artifacts that are presented during the sync process at 24fps in S3D shooting will always be greater then that seen at 48/60fps.

We will try again 48fps as well as 60fps with different lighting set ups and Aperture settings on our lenses, while testing
various scenes, as Landscapes with movement to fast paced action scenes, and see how I like it once done and projected at
48/60fps accordingly.

There is surely a fact of clarity, less Motion and other artifacts seen while shooting and projecting at higher frame rates then when done so at 24fps
and I like that, now is a matter of continue testing and see with the capacity of the Epic more S3D friendly Sensor adjustability,
were we wil find the best frame rate for our first S3D Movie.
