GH2 Slow Motion Music Video

deturbanator — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 23:48:22 +0000

Unfortunately the slow motion of the video did not come out so prominently. I had the singer sing his song 2x as fast, while I recorded at 60fps. Slowed it down, and then synced the audio. But even at 2 times the speed, the singer had a hard time singing the song. I couldn't imagine making the slow motion effect any bigger.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to improve this effect? Any general comments or criticisms? Feedback is welcomed and encouraged.

Enable audio video component monitoring

madrenderman — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 15:28:04 +0000

I'm wonder that audio video out from analog out is enable only during play, but never during recording... panasonic not answer me why... the fact is that you cannot monitor audio during recording (with simple stereo rca to jack 3,5 adapter), you cannot use video out to monitor camera applied on flying elicopter (most of them have simple analog video transmitter), and more... you cannot use a 6$ usb grabber to use gh2 with stop motion software... and more... Any chance to enable them by hack?

We need a benchmark for codec testing

duartix — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 10:56:16 +0000

Seriously, shooting static torture charts doesn't cut it, nor does it bring any useful information on how a patch is doing except for Full Intra. We need something that is pure (uncompressed), has texture, has rich tones, has complex non linear motion (like fire or water), that is repeatable and easily accessible to everyone to play on a Full HD screen.

I've been searching the Web for flash animations to no avail. Does anyone have an idea or can come up with something that fits this bill?

An OpenCL/GL or DirectX demo perhaps?

Desktop PC

Hi everyone,

My mac laptop has finally given up and it is time to upgrade. Since i'm doing a lot of music, photography and now video since acquiring a GH2 in january (which is giving me great joy), i'm considering splashing out on a dell XPS 8300 Desktop going all out Max memory, max graphics and a raid hard drive....

Has anyone got any suggestions apart from this beast would be greatly appreciated. Please no mac chat! i have been burnt. I must say their customer service was great but the machine itself was not up to the job and kept breaking down at the most critical of times making me look like an ass loosing me good gigs.

I currently have a decent enough samsung screen but i will be upgrading to a 32inch LED screen in a few months for video work and pleasure.

Thanks

RC FLYING FPV Glasses Video Viewer instead of viewfinder ?

feha — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:59:55 +0000

Hi, i wonder if some one have tested using RC FLYING FPV Glasses Video Viewer, instead/for viewfinder ? Any experience ? I have this as an idea to use them as a monitor, but the problem will be getting a composite output from GH2 ... Any Full HD video glasses ?

GH2 Hacked 150mbits music video!!!!!

madmax — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 02:24:33 +0000

Music Video 'Spremiagrumi' made with a hacked GH2

Elenion — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 04:38:25 +0000

This summer i made this music video for the young italian pop musician Andrea Pinsuti. Two days of shooting in a theater, zero budget and just me doing everything with the help of natives. Tokina 11-16, Konica 40 1.8. Gh2 hacked with standard 42mb/s. I was happy with the quality of 1080 and unhappy with 720 (that now is hugely improved). I'd like you to judge and give some advices!

After Effects from a N00b

itimjim — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 09:47:38 +0000

We shot part of our first short film earlier last year as a bit of an exercise for learning film making. The rushes were adequate in quality, but there were things all over the place that were wrong...and still are :-). Oh, and we're doing the acting ourselves for now, as we don't have the heart to involve anyone who can even remotely act, to our amateur film crew. This exercise has put us a few steps closer to feeling more confident however.

Anyway, in an effort over Christmas, having a little time to myself, I decided to embark on learning a bit more about After Effects. And what better footage to work on than our incomplete short. We'd done a few edits and quick grades, but nothing serious, so now was the time.

First of all, the script called for this to be set at night time, and we'd shot in the daylight. Plus, there was supposed to be a character that magically appears in the garage, and we'd left the bloody side door open! We also wanted to add some form of special effects, knowing full well it would look cheesy, we just didn't want it to look like we'd drawn them on with crayons.

I've put together a few screencasts of our learning process and what we did, and I just thought they might be useful to anyone that is very new to all of this. These are by no means tutorials though, just commentary around what we did, why and our learning experience.

After Effects Door Removal Clone Tool (Part 1)

After Effects Door Removal Clone Tool (Part 2)

Learning After Effects Commentary: Crop, Levels, Day for Night

Learning After Effects Commentary: Light Effects and Motion Tracking

And here was the result of my learning efforts, which I was quite pleased with considering how much of a novice I am.

Camera: Panasonic GH2 (Unhacked)
Lens(es): Panasonic 14-140 4-5.8
Software: After Effects/Premiere Pro CS5.5, 5DtoRGB Batch, Red Giant (Looks, Shine), Video CoPilot (Optical Flares)

Hope its useful to someone.

This can be done ?

Remap REC button to LVF/LCD and flash a video enabled firmware ( GH1 , G10 ) to G1 camera ?

Thanks

shutter operation on still camera vs video camera

donf — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 22:28:49 +0000

This question comes about as I use my GH1 in still mode and movie mode. My question is, does the shutter mechanism work differently in the 2 modes? In the still mode I hear and feel a distinctive chunk that I am guessing is a real mechanical shutter opening and closing. Is that correct?
However, in video mode no noise is made so I have to assume that some kind electronic exposure scheme is operating? Is there a reason that the electronic shutter mechanism is not used in still mode? I am guessing that to get the pixel densities for still mode a mechanical shutter is still required but for movies at lower res and lower shutter speeds it is not required?

'Tactical Rig' old

ed_lee83 — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 03:21:17 +0000

Why exclusive? Because it comes with a unique shutter release pistol grip that can remotely enable video recording!
I only have limited stock as I am not the manufacturer nor retailer.
