Canon XH-A1 - Time Remapping - Slow Motion

Hey everyone. This video just tests how I can take footage with the Canon XH-A1, import and time-remap it in After Effects, and edit it in Premiere Pro. Hope you like! View this video in High Definition: http://www.vimeo.com/667978 Process: The video footage was shot in 50i, then imported into After Effects so that the upper and lower fields of the interlaced footage could be seperated to become individual, whole frames. The footage was then time-remapped with a motion detector called 'Pixel Motion' in After Effects. The footage was exported and edited in Premiere Pro, with the audio edited in Audition. The footage has remained in HD every step of the editing process, until it was exported for YouTube and Vimeo. A flaw that time-remapping has is the occasional 'ghosting' that can appear, as seen around my arms. This is caused by fast movement which the 'Pixel Motion' detector cannot compensate 'intermediate frames' for, and tends to 'frame blend' sections of the image for those instances.

Sweet my camera has a shutter speed of 1/3000 sec :D Now I only have to learn how to time remap in AE :P

thanks of the info. I will see if my cam can have a 1/1000 sec shutter. I guess not. We will see.

no you're right, i was just making sure you didnt think it was a feature of the camera or something. you know what i mean. it is a fuckin good camera

yes thats true but do you really think that it would look so smooth with a simple handycam like sony HC40e for example??

the shutter speed was set to 1/1000 sec which means that it was capturing the frame that quickly. that allows the picture to remain sharp rather than blurring with motion. it has nothing to do with the speed of the video. He used AE to slow the video down and a filter within AE called Pixel Motion to keep it from looking stuttery.

It's a setting on the camera that makes the shutter speed 1/000 of a second and then he (sped it up?) in After Effects.

I really want to! I just wish I had the time though - so much going on all the time.
