When you shoot really close/tight, slow the action down manually ie – move slower and fake slow motion. Its the movement at the top of an arc/trajectory that works best for Twixtor because that’s when things generally move the slowest, more frames of the relevant action for Twixtor to work with.Ĥ. The law of nature is that what must goes up, must come down. Shoot against a plain/solid colored background – sky/wall etc etc.ģ. Shoot at a fast shutter: anything 1/2000 – 1/4000s. Here are a few key things to consider when working with Twixtor:ġ. I wanted to try shooting super slomo using the Canon 7D and Twixtor in interiors. I wanted to shoot something different to all the other Twixtor stuff I’ve been seeing – which have all been shot outside.
When Twixtor becomes a part of my workflow I need to become increasingly more aware of the way I am shooting so that I have workable footage in post. I guess with every project the approach is somewhat different. Let me quickly explain how Twixtor works: It takes your footage [generally your transcoded 50fps, or 60fps footage and “guesses/interpolates” your missing/in-between frames Gravity – Director’s Cut from Salomon on Vimeo. But for those whose budget means renting a Phantom Flex or something similar is out of the question Salomon guides you through the best ways to make the most out this powerful, but tricky plug-in. You need to light a lot to make them work but as you will read below you need to do the same with twixtor to get the high shutter speeds needed. Twixtor will not give you as good results as a dedicated high speed camera of course.

He put up a new video a couple of days ago, Gravity, and he was kind enough to write this guest blog post on how to get the best out of it. One of the best filmmakers I know who uses Twixtor really well is my friend Salomon Ligthelm, whom I met when he lived in Dubai back in January last year. I have used twixtor myself for a few projects but I have never had terrific success with it.
