Instructor: If you're shooting at a high frame rate,
you might want to actually convert that footage
to a lower frame rate to slow it down
rather than using one of the speed effects.
To do so, find the clip in your project bin,
go up to Clip, Modify, Interpret Footage.
This will bring up the modify clip window.
Right now it's using the frame rate from the file, 59.9401.
We want to choose Assume the frame rate is,
then set the frame rate to your project sequence settings.
For us, we're gonna do 23.976
or maybe for you it would be 29.97.
Leave all of these the same and click OK.
What happens is, now the frame rate changes
down here to 23.976.
And when we play through it, it's in slow-mo.
And actually the in and out point of our clip changes
once we do that modification.
So we might have to extend the clip
and find the space again.
And now, actually changing it to the frame rate
allows us to get the slowest motion footage
without it becoming stuttery.
Without seeing the individual frames of the video.
If you shoot at 59.94 and you slow it down to 23.976
it's still going to look smooth.
It's going to be nice and buttery slow motion.
Love it, and I liked this shot a lot more
than the shot before, which was a little bit shaky.
Now you don't see as much of those shakes
and that's one of the tricks
that you can do with the slow motion.
So that's how you conform or interpret
higher frame rate footage into a lower frame rate
for your project.
Thanks and we'll see you in another lesson.
