I’m new to filmography/filmmaking/ whatever and I got my first gig shooting an outdoor market this week. I did a lot of walking and panning shots over the vendor tents and I did the whole thing in 24fps 1/50 because “cinematic!” When I got home to edit it, I was disappointed in the amount of blur and ghosting and while the client was happy, I knew it didn’t look right. MY GOD DID I NEED THIS VIDEO! You just saved me from literally thinking about giving up because I must have just been bad at shooting. NO NO! I know now that I should have shot in 30-60fps! Thank you for this concise explanation that could have been 20 minutes long but taught me more than a week of looking this stuff up in 5 minutes.
Glad this video helped you out. Don’t worry we have all been in that exact situation you have been. Every gig is a learning experience and we still learn something everyday. Wishing you luck with your filmmaking career!
Surprised that you kinda' glossed over 29.97, except at the very end, where you mention 30-60fps. When should you use 29.97 (which seems rather "popular" vs. 24?
@@G_Gued Thanks. Saw (one of) his rants here: ruclips.net/video/_cIvUMi4xpA/видео.html Wasn't that much of a rant. Perhaps in another place? I like to use 59.97 fps because using the "double fps shutter speed theory, that gives me a shutter speed of 1/125th second. As I shoot a lot of aerial video (from helicopters) and a lot of hand held, when on the ground, I feel that the faster shutter speed gives me nicer result. If I were shooting on sticks, I might go to 29.97 to give me more light/lower ISO. I pretty much have my own "system" that works for me, for all that, but had hoped to hear what the OP had to say. I'm always willing to learn.
@@theotherHOLLYWOOD Sure, lets say you're doing something in the kitchen for like a product or a candle ad or somehting and htey kinda want that idk I guess like informercial look. Or if they want it to kinda look like it came from a cellphone.

Really helpfully explained, thank you!
Glad this helped!
New room setup 👌
Quick question not related to the topic:
1:19 is that an easyrig? If so which model? The arm looks interesting
Thank you, that was very helpful.
What about performing a 3:2 pulldown for broadcast/traditional delivery? Typically you can't just send 24fps to tv stations correct?
Thanks!
🥇
Thanks Maxx

I typically shoot commercials for like certain products in 29.97. Like if I'm doing a high key lighting
Broadcast and live sports are typically shot in 30p. Marques B. has an entire rant and product line on why he feels it’s the superior frame rate.

@@Brookssmedia Could you elaborate a bit on why you find 29.97 is better for high key stuff?
