 Okay, today we're working with Blender 2.78a and this is part of a series So be sure to check out the playlist in the description of this video and I do thank you for watching Let's go ahead and dive in to some video editing in blender. Hopefully you watch the previous videos in this series I'm gonna go up here and go to video editing. I'm gonna say add I'm gonna say add a movie and I'm gonna go to where my movies are and say thumbnails and I'm gonna choose this one of my daughter running Unclick sound and say add frame I'm also gonna just shorten up our video clip here You know our project to 100 frames now if I hit alt a and I can use my mouse wheel to scroll in here I'm caching the current VC. It's playing at 17 frames second Then once it's cached starts playing at the full 30 frames a second there and Off to the right with that video clip selected. So make sure you right click that video You have a bunch of options. We've looked at a few of these so far But we're gonna go down here to filters or filter and you have a few effects And we're gonna look at a few of them. There's one or two. I'm gonna skip over but You can flip the video and whenever I make one of these changes got to recache the video And I'm gonna hit X here and you can see we flipped it on the X axis So instead of running from from left to right. She's running from right to left Y would flip it so she's upside down X is still flip so she's still running from the outside of the screen I can uncheck X and she'll run upside down from the outside of the screen So very straightforward flipping on the X and Y axes Backwards will reverse the video and it does take a little while for it to cache videos But once it caches it it will play it smoothly But then we'll have a video in reverse Let's go ahead and let it finish caching there right about here. There we go So now we have a video in reverse Great, so you might ask what's the strobe effect well strobe effect is oh and also if you hover over Most of these it will tell you this one reverses the frame order and even shows you the Python script That's used to issue that command so you can write your own scripts to Automate stuff or create your own effects by combining these which blender does with everything which is one of the great things about it but a strobe it will only display every Frame so our frames 30 frames a second or our videos 30 frames a second So I can set this to play only every 15th frame or every second frame And that's not that's different than changing the frame rate of the video Which would if I slowed down the frame rate it would play slower if I sped it up will play faster If I say let's say every 15th frame It's only a play two frames a second, but it's playing it as you can see just like kind of a jerky boom boom boom And this is a fact that's probably not used to often. I'll do five frames a second But you know This could be combined with other effects for like if you're doing a flashback sequence or someone's like was hitting the head And everything is looking kind of jerky or or some sort of psychedelic drug thing This could be one effect that you can add Also, you know, if you're trying to get an old time timey feel like a black-and-white film movie You know saying the strobe, you know to to you know To something like two or three which is a little off So it's playing every other frame every third frame gives it kind of a jerky feeling Which you might might add to that that's probably where I use it the most is If I'm trying to get that old film effect black-and-white grainy silent film type effect So that's those things and then now we come down here to colors and there's other color effects you can do but by default built into the filters here for every video you have saturation Which is you know how? Saturated how much color is in the colors? So if we were to turn it up you can see the colors are very very bright And if you turn it all the way down to zero you're gonna get yourself a black-and-white or actually a gray scale video So yeah, you have your gray scale video there and again every time I change one of these effects got to recache the video And that would be faster if we use proxy videos which we'll be getting again into in a future video I kind of just want to dive into the video editing before I get into the proxy even though Probably be good if I did proxy videos first because if if your videos are playing jerky on your computer You're having trouble editing proxy videos proxy is what you really want to get into So that's saturation we'll set that back to one which is the normal colors now multiply multiply is um, I Don't know it doesn't really give you a description when you hover over it multiply if you're familiar with threshold It's kind of like threshold with the colors. So if I go way down it actually makes it More transparent but if I as I go up you can see it becomes washed out or overexposed I guess you could say so let me set to yeah So like 1.5 so like ones the default so you can see it's it's kind of washed out overexposed Let me set it to two and you'll see Here in a second because I didn't recognize I hit to enter there we go and So if you just got like an overexposed, that's a quick way to kind of do that But that's it for this little filters box. I didn't get into the interlacing I Really don't think that's important if you're working with digital video. I really don't know what this button does I mean we can look but interlacing has to When you're working with analog video, especially when you convert it to digital This is actually does do we actually see a difference in the video here Not that I really notice anyway, so I wouldn't really worry about that Correct me if I'm wrong. I mean interlacing does have to do with analog video You know basically takes different scan lines and then when you're converting to digital You can it can cause problems I haven't back in the day that used to be a big headache and I don't know if this button helps Fix that but since I work all with digital video now It's not really an issue anymore And so I really don't know what that button does and I also don't know what convert float does I mean a float is a is a decimal so value so it says convert input to float data Anyone knows I mean I could look it up But I don't think it's something you're probably gonna be using often So I'm not gonna bother talking about in this video, but if you do neither I'm sorry for not mentioning it or describing it I do thank you for watching as always this video is part of a series for a check out the playlist There should be a link at the end of this video or in the description of the video Please visit my website films by Chris calm That's Chris the K There's a link in the description of video as well as a link to my patreon page patreon.com Ford slash malix 1000 I appreciate any support you can give me and as always I hope that you have a great day
