Final Cut Pro – Better slow motion with Motion 3 optical flow retiming roundtrip


Face it – Final Cut Pro has never handled retiming very well. Enter Motion 3 and optical flow retiming – a vastly superior yet time consuming way to create slow motion retimed clips. Apple introduced optical flow retiming into the Final Cut Studio with the Motion 3 release. This will probably be better integrated in future version of Final Cut Pro – but for now we examine the Final Cut Pro to Motion 3 back to Final Cut Pro roundtrip method of optical flow retiming.

    @johneeeee that’s why some of the best film editors still stick with their original techniques, whether it be old software or doing it by hand. It’s what they’re familiar with.They pretty much express the exact same thing you did :)

    @VGMaven Oops, I guess someone got their little feelings hurt by a comment. Some little pigtailed girly I’m guessing…how adorable.

    @MrBerkley Interesting how words seem so necessary sometimes, when they aren’t.. All it takes is a special look from a stranger.

    Dear,
    If I’m editing Final Cut with 30fps and I use Motion3 to 50% slow motion of a 60fps original clip… does it performe better slow motion than a original 30fps ?

    @provideoschool I like a good belly laugh before I start my day, and this was it, lol.

    @abedkh – idiot

  18. Comments  tomes55moon   |  Saturday, 03 July 2010 at 7:14 am

    so I’m guessing that if I want to slow it down to only 75%, I wouldn’t double the amount of frames, but just add half the amount I already have? I should I just double the frames anyway to be safe? Thanks

    Not bad, but i think its totally not worth the 27 minute waiting time, save up and buy a slow-mo camera if you are into serious slow motion

    @johneeeee I have to say – this comment was hilarious.
