Overview of how to use Twixtor within Final Cut Pro to lengthen or shorten a sequence to fit into a specified gap using the frame number option in Twixtor.
This video tutorial gives an overview of how to use Twixtor within Final Cut Pro, including how to apply Twixtor, how to speed up and slow down footage using Twixtor , and special considerations needed.
Things that come in and out of the frame can cause difficulties to any motion estimator. This Tutorial explains when it is appropriate to use Smart Blend and shows Twixtor and Twixtor Pro with Smart Blend and compares a panning shot slowed down 10x with and without Smart Blend.
Often times you need to make your edit in Premiere, Final Cut Pro or Avid and then import in After Effects to finish it or simply to do the final render, using tools such as Automatic Duck to import the project. This Tutorial demonstrates how to quickly setup large edits to do frame rate conversion with Twixtor in After Effects. In particular, we use footage from the Canon 5D Mark II that can only shoot 30 FPS and convert our edit for a 24P delivery, but this method can be applied to any frame rate conversion.
Optical Flow retiming might not work well when you work with footage that has cuts in it (i.e the gloopyness effect might not be what you want). If the footage was preedited elsewhere or you precomposed a set of layers, you might see some warping artifacts as you cross a scene cut point (or even a transition like a dissolve). In this tutorial we show you how to mark such segments in Twixtor so your retiming is not affected by such issue.
Key framed alignment of video to audio. In this tutorial from RE: Vision Effects, Lori Freitag covers the basic concept of aligning a video track to a different audio track using Twixtor. As an example we lip-synch an outdoor shoot to a studio recording.
RE:Vision Effects intelligently slows down, speed-up or frame rate convert your image sequence. This tutorial by Lori Freitag provides an overview of how to use Twixtor within After Effects, including how to apply Twixtor, how to speed up and slow down footage using Twixtor.
