HELP CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FIGURE THIS FAST MOTION EFFECT

[brandon768]

Hey I really want to get help on a transition and it seems no one can explain how it is done! Check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYIGSpKFvwc&list=LLz-U1FX5WdTlIm4ogY5rh5g&index=28
The transition starts at around 0:16 – 0:18. I noticed the effect lasts maybe around 4 frames. But somehow he keeps dramitically speeding up his clips in certain parts of the whole video and I was wondering how is this done. I tried velocity and just speeding up but it will never come out like that. I don’t know if that effect is also giving him the smooth slow motion effect on some clips which could be twixtor but I doubt it.

Hi Brandon,

The effect looks like a simple speed warp. What editing suite are you using? We use Adobe CC here, and to do that effect I’d zoom into the video track on the timeline in Premiere, right click the keyframe line that you’d normally use for opacity and select Show Clip Keyframes > Time Remapping > Speed and then add in a start and end frame for the section you’d like to speed up. Then just drag the line in between the keyframes up to increase the speed of that clip. That’s all that’s done here.

The smooth slow motion looks like it’s coming from the camera- i.e. the camera was set to a high frame-rate (only about 60fps by the looks of things). If you have footage shot at a higher frame-rate than your timeline in Premiere, you’ll need to go to the interpret window (right click the clip in the project panel) and set the correct frame-rate there.

Hope this helps!
