Slow motion - Optical flow with Final Cut Pro X

Final Cut Pro X slow motion. The original footage was shot at 80% variable speed mode with a Panasonic GH2. I then slowed everything down to 50% and some parts down to 2% speed. I used optical flow for all speed change effects.

Hi, could I ask re getting footage at 80% speed...how do you actually do that before importing it into FC. Thanks.

[jonclarke84]

@lekancir put the camera in movie mode and hit the menu button. The top option is the "creative movie" section where you can choose manual movie mode, cinema mode or variable movie mode. You want to choose variable and then choose your speed from there

i can't get my slow mo smooth like this even with optical flow it gets really glitchy at the top and bottom of the screen and also sharp lines get glitchy. i shoot with a sony V1U in SD.. any suggestions?

[jonclarke84]

@kapilaciancio hey, not sure I can really help you out much. I'm completely unfamiliar with the V1U, I've only worked with HD HDSLR footage in FCPX.

Hi,

Not a critisism of your work but the slo-mo seems to be done by morphing - have a look at the end of the cat's tail as it passes the door post.

On slow motion can I add sound effects like foot-steps etc than add music?
