Izzy Video 108 – The 300 Effect aka Variable Speed Changes

Get the Flash Player to see this video.

Thanks to Amber Heckler from Norfolk, VA for requesting this week’s topic. She wrote me at izzy (at) izzyvideo (dot) com and asked:

I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how to achieve the “300 Effect” in post production. To me the “300 Effect” is when a piece of video seems to speed up, and then slow down; mainly seen in fight sequences.

Izzy Video 108 answers this question.

Some of the topics I cover in this episode are:

  • What is a variable speed change
  • Time-Remapping
  • Video Frame Rates
  • Smoothing Keyframes

This is one of those techniques that can be a lot of fun. My children certainly enjoyed making this video!

You can watch the video here.

Noell uploaded this photo to Flickr today, and I just love it, so I wanted to share it with you all.

This is a beautiful sunset in Rocky Point, Mexico, and I’m doing what I always do — shooting video.

Feel free to comment on the photo at her Flickr account if you’d like…

And yes, there’s a new episode of Izzy Video coming soon, so please “stay tuned.”
