The only other thing you really need to consider is where you are outputting your clips to. Then when you add your files to the render queue, you do not have to select the individual output modules for each of your video clips. To set your default output module, when you are selecting your output module from the drop down menu, hold the control key and select the one you want. You can read more about it at Video-Copilot. I use a custom output format based on Quicktime JPG that saves a lot of space in comparison to raw uncompressed footage. Now, all of your files automatically put into separate compositions and are ready to be rendered one after the other.īefore you hit render, you will probably want to tweak some settings so you don’t have huge files. Instead, Select all of your footage and go to Composition > Add to render queue. You could try dragging these files individually into their own compositions and rendering them individually but this takes a large amount of time, especially when you factor in rendering time and the need to babysit the entire process. Now, all of your footage should say 23.976 when you right click on it and select interpret footage. ![]() Now, Select all of your footage except for the one you already told to interpret > Right Click on your selection > Go to interpret footage > and the only selection it is possible to make is “Apply Interpretation”. Select the file that you have already told to interpret the footage > Right Click on it> Go to Interpret Footage> Select “Remember Interpretation”. Now you have 10 or possibly more files that you also need to conform. (This will desynchronize your audio) > Select OK. Right Click on it and Select Interpret Footage> Main> Go To Frames> Select Conform To Frame Rate > Type 23.976 into the box. As long as they are all the same resolution, it should not matter which one you select. Import all of your footage into After Effects. Now let’s say that you want to conform all of this footage at once. Open up After Effects (I’m using CS3 but this tutorial also applies to CS4 and CS5) ![]() It is possible to do this easily with After Effects plugins such as Twixtor which may offer better results but with the Pro version coming at the cost of $595.00, I would rather not pay for something that I can do natively in After Effects.Īlso I have seen video tutorials of people stretching their footage using After Effect’s time stretch feature but I have found these tutorials require calculations, frame blending, and motion blur to accomplish what this tutorial does without any of those requirements. Another difference of choosing this method over using Cinema Tools is that it does not permanently alter your original video file. Unfortunately, PC users don’t have the option of using Cineform, so we are more limited in our options. If you have a Mac, Philip Bloom has an excellent tutorial for how to conform footage using cineform. Also, this tutorial works if you have a higher frame-rate of footage such as that shot with a GoPro-HD or Phantom.Īs an added bonus, this tutorial shows you how to conform your footage all at once, instead of clip by clip. This is especially useful if you have a Canon 7D or T2i with the ability to shoot at 60 frames per second and you would like to slow it down. ![]() ![]() Here is a quick tutorial showing you how to conform 60p, 60 frames per second footage to 24p, 24 frames per second footage on a PC or Mac using Adobe After Effects.
