To me, making Summer Camp felt like the ultimate in slow motion multitasking. Going from the writers room where we were writing one episode, to a design meeting where we were laying out another, we rarely felt stagnant (though often felt pooped) and one department was always informing the other. What was most important within this process was the artists who worked on the show. When one of us was feeling a little uninspired, there was always someone else who had a better nights sleep, or could think of a better joke, and that support system kept us all going and felt essential for being able to sustain a television show for as long as we did.
Selfishly, I am creating this newsletter to help me feel a little more tethered to the world and the artists within it. It\u2019s been percolating in my mind for a while, and much like all the slow motion multitasking in my life, it feels like i\u2019m just following a thread:
I would like to see a slower replay option on the Cam
Outdoor. The faster playback is far less necessary when we are only recording 10-20 seconds of movement. It is also difficult to pause in an exact spot on my phone. The pause icon shows up briefly and it takes many attempts to pause a person walking up my front steps without zooming from a double tap etc. Perhaps the pause capability staying up on the side of the screen.
Add a slow-mo or the option to advance the video one screen or sec at a time would be handy for when someone wants to get a pic of a face or license plate, currently its a headache trying to get to a specific screen.
If you want 120fps on the export file, then make a custom video mode with a 120fps frame rate.
If you want to make a slow motion effect, then modify the speed property in the properties panel for the clip. For example, 0.5000x would be slow motion.
Copy (Ctrl+C) the clip to place it in Source. Set in/out points for the region that will be slowed down. Then Properties panel > hamburger menu > Extract Sub-clip. The saved file will be a lossless extraction rather than a re-encoding.
So I have a clip shot in 1080@120fps. My intentions were to use this clip along side others show 4k at 30fps. That was a mess so I figured I would make things easy and start a whole new project using only the one clip and dragging it into the sequence so that all the sequence setting match that clip exactly. The problem I have is when I try to select a moment in time during the clip that I would like to either speed up or slow down, the playback just jumps to a different point in the clip after I have adjusted the speed. Not giving me the result I wanted.
Find the point where you want the slow mo to start (point C) and use the blade tool to make a cut in the clip there. Now find where you want the slow mo to end (point F), and again use the blade tool to make a cut there.
When I export my media, it looks fine on the timeline and I export my usual settings H.264 and do a Youtube Preset. However, when the file hits my laptop the image is in super slow motion, yet the audio is normal speed.
How far over cranked? Load the clip in the source window, mark a range and create a motion clip (the slanted frame icon) and start with say, 150% speed value, and go up or down accordingly until you achieve normal speed playback.
Or you can use the traditional motion effect. Load the footage in the source monitor, and from the top left hamburger menu, choose Motion Effect. In that effect, you can set a parameter for the playback fps. Set it to 48fps and it will create a 200% motion effect. Use "Both Fields" as the motion effect type.
Are you trying to nest the Speed Boost effect on top of another effect? The system will only allow for other effects to be nested ON TOP of a timewarp or motion effect, but not underneath it. Attempting to do so will result in the "effect does not apply" error.
Okay, I have some additional questions regarding this. Since I do not want to recut the clip again from the original footage, I went ahead with the Timewarp instead of using the traditional motion effect.
I want to make quick turn of character's head with slow motion. I'm making animation at 24 fps & I don't want to remake it at 60 fps. Is there any way to do slow motion for Particles hair while animating?
You can bake your hair particles system, go to the timeline, and stretch/extend the keyframes to make them slow motion. This basically can be done if you first animate your monkey rotation fast (make the keyframes closer together) and then after baking your hair particles system animation, extend/stretch the keyframes in the timeline to fit your ideal slow-mo length (on both the monkey rotation and hair keyframes).
Confining slow motion to select objects in the scene would be insanely difficult (it would have to track everything in the scene and fill in a lot of detail whenever things crossed). Limiting slow motion to a certain time range is something you can already do if you have editing software. Either run the whole source video and then retime the output in editing, or trim the source down to just the part you want in topaz and edit it back into the original.
I guess those suggestions are both an option, but they both require going back and forth to a third-party app which takes quite a bit of time for just slowing down certain frames and having the rest the normal frame rate.
So you want it to work like what a lot of phones do in slow motion mode - plays normally, plays slow for a certain portion, plays normally again. Possibly with a speed ramp transitioning between the two. Sound right?
It would be amazing to add this feature.
Right now to get those results, it looks something like:
Cut the video into three clips.
Run interpolation on the clips that needs slowed down.
Use an external audio editor to slow the audio down. (If you like that sort of thing.)
Use another video editing tool to join all the clips back together.
In the Photos app , you can trim a video you recorded on your iPhone to change where it starts and stops. You can also adjust the portion of a video that appears in slow motion when you record in Slo-mo mode.
Hi there, did anyone use the Patch motion correction (multi) in CryoSparc 2.12.2? Right now, I am using this function with K2 data in the superresolution model. It takes about 300s for one GPU (1080) to process one tif image. After one night with a 4-GPU cluster node, it only processed 700 images. Does anyone know how to speed up?
Thank you.

Hi Sarulthasan,
I just updated to v2.14.2. It is still very slow loading the raw image, almost identical as previous. One thing I should point out is that I used the old version of CUDA8. Is this caused the slow loading (230s/image)?
Thank you.
Recent research on time perception has revealed that actions which are replayed in slow motion are perceived to take longer and rated to be more intentional (e.g., foul plays). Interestingly, the bias on duration estimations seems to disappear when information on the slow motion factor (i.e., the degree the video was slowed down) was provided. Here, we scrutinize the question whether also the intentionality bias disappears when explicit information about the slow motion factor is provided. To this end, two groups watched the same video clips, all displaying foul situations in a basketball match, in different video speeds. While the uninformed group saw the videos without further information, the informed group received additional information about the current slow motion factor. This study replicated the overestimation of original duration with increasing slow motion and indicated that this effect might be reduced when information about the slow motion factor is provided. However, despite generally lower intentionality ratings in the informed group, video speed information was not able to reduce the rise in intentionality ratings with increasing slow motion. Potential reasons and open questions regarding the nature and mechanisms behind these perceptual temporal biases (e.g., different time processing systems) are discussed.
Why one book? We learn how to read critically not by reading, but by re-reading. And yet, you could scan university syllabi the world over and you would find few, if any, courses where students are given the time necessary to reread a text that has already been covered. In this seminar, we will be learning about how we read by moving slowly through a text that is rich, challenging, and unsettling.
Slow Motion allows you to record a video then play it back up to 8 times slower than normal. The Super Slow-mo feature plays your videos back 32 times slower than normal videos and 4 times slower than videos taken with the Slow Motion feature.
