What I love about your videos and your course. Is that you respect our intelligence. Only explaining something when it's a concept or method that isn't usually used.
You can also tackle it in-camera by making sure you're shooting as flat as possible (you can do this using GoPro Labs), turn sharpening and noise reduction down all the way, and use a GoPro ND strong enough to allow you to shoot at a 180 degree shutter, so if you're shooting 60p for example, manually set your shutter to 1/125. Also turn off settings like auto shutter and auto ISO. You can even control the level of fisheye in camera.
All good but what about all the videos already shot on older gopros or before you know this was possible or by other cheaper action cameras or even phone ultra-wide/fisheye footage? :D
Yes. Another huge insight as to what and why footage looks the way it does. Shot matching or creating a look all in mind. As for your own studio look on the channel, i love the vibrant and bold festival of light. Very sharp.
This is PERFECT. Thank you! I'm for sure going to use this for speed ramping. Adding motion blur makes ramping look SO much better, but before I always got the ghosting artifacts.
Super impressive @theqazman - That motion blur lesson was so informative and helpful, definitely worth the price of admission! Thank you for sharing so much killer content!
I've used the motion blur a lot but not in the FX/node and had no idea they had that setting. Why not include that in the main tab? Thanks for the tip, comes in so handy for not only GoPro but things like iPhone 15 log footage etc too. So many super versatile small cameras that can get some natural blur without needing to add NDs to the mix. Amazing!
This is great. If you're in control of the production process, you can ensure your GoPro has the correct shutter speed, and you won't need to add the motion blur in post.
I bought a Hero 9 and set it to 60 fps with a shutter speed of 1/120 but then the image is all overexposed, even with the lowest ISO possible, I have to set it to automatic, but then I get no motion blur, even at 30 fps 1/60.
perfect tutorial! I'm going to shoot my first documentary in Africa and I will use a GoPro 11 for some shots so this could be very helpful. I have a question: Have you ever grade some GoPro footage recorder with GoPro labs firmware? (with this firmware you can use custom log profiles, more bitrate etc. and it's GoPro official). What's the better way to color GoPro footage?
Some great tips! But as others have said, you could get motion blur in camera by using nd's. But this method is perfect when you didn't have that option! I will be using this, thank you!
@@theqazmanAlso very useful for those of us who like the point-and-shoot simplicity of our actioncams/phones vs our bigger rigs. For home videos, I don’t need NDs or worrying about batteries. Ty for the helpful tip!
Thank you brother for sharing this video. It's gonna help thousands of creator out there. Just one question. How to grade to get that color? If you could share that information, it would be great!
I get pretty heavy distortions around the subject (the bird) this way. If I change settings to something else it is worse then. But still, it distorts surroundings right next to the subject lines.
First of all the video which I watching now has good color sharpness etc . many RU-vidr who teaching how to color grade ext. Their video looks bad so how they can teach color grading but yours looks cool. Thanx.
Definitely a good alternative way to fake a slower shutter speed, since most of the time to get that 180 degree rule you need to put a ND filter on your camera, but also requires your shooting setting to be consistent in lighting. But in a situation where the environment is always changing, setting the shutter speed to auto and faking the motion blur in post is quite a good workaround.
I don't understand why the first method is even available in Davinci if the second one is way more realistic. Also if I may give some tutorial feedback, perhaps I am the only one, but the mouse movements make me nervous. Maybe motion blur on the mouse would help?
Thanks for this tutorial 😍, by the way Do you have a tutorial in how to Colorgrade Gopro flat footage? Or how to proper convert to rec709 of Gopro footage?
This is an amazing tutorial incredibly informative. My only question is is it better to shoot in linear mode right out of the GoPro, or shoot in hyper view or superview and fix lens distortion later? Is there any difference in FOV? It would be great to have the creative flexibility in post to decide FOV after shooting.
I have ND filters for my GoPro so I can use a proper shutter speed. However, for those times that I don't have time to set my ND filters up and I need to get a shot I will for sure use this in post.
@@jonoin35mm98 I guess it also depends on the type of action and frequency of the movements. It’s certainly true for downhill mountain biking for instance, but I regularly shoot my FPV drone videos with low shutter speed and have no problems stabilizing them with Gyroflow. Good to know though!
Fantastic video! Instant subscription. Can you make a tutorial please about color grading to get this "California sun light" look that you're achieving? When you're switching between the before and after there is distinct difference in colors. Thank you! :-)
lmao i love that people in the comments are trying to correct an industry leading professional, they have no idea what they are talking about lol. love the stuff ur doing man
It's a little far streched, saying a camera with more (natural) motion blur correlates with a higher value ;-) Having an image with or without motion blur just correlates with the camera's shutter speed/angle, something ALL cameras have and most certainly can be adjusted. Regarding the GoPro, a simple 40$ ND filter would have done the trick and made a shutter angle of 180° possible, thus introducing natural looking motion blur... Anyway, definetly a nice video showing how to introduce more motion blur into footage inside of Resolve. I know, that title wouldn't have been as sexy though ;-)
Of course if things are done right in camera they'd be perfect and I wouldn't have to make this vid. But they aren't and here we are. Not everyone slaps an ND on their lens just as not every slaps an ND on their mirrorless cameras. Doing the things shown here are for those. Let's leave the titles and thumbnails to fulltime RU-vidrs. 😜 Trust me there's a lot more data and research involved than just flying with the first thing that comes to your mind.
@@theqazman Don't get me wrong please, I appreciate how much knowledge and experience go into your YT vids and that we can profit off of that! But that's exactly my point, reflecting as a consumer of full-time RU-vidrs videos, the titles are getting increasingly exaggerated. Of course, attention is the currency of YT which directly translates to income, but titles and thumbnails go so far, that videos start to miss their actual point. This can be frustrating as a viewer. And I had the feeling this is the case here: changing a GoPros shutter angle simply doesn’t magically turn its image quality into one of an Alexa LF, ask who ever you want. A shutter angle of 180° is the most basic thing to set a camera to, that doesn’t have to do anything with a camera value, its brand or whatsoever.
@@nebukadnezzar3578 Problem is, the GoPro works terribly with nd filters, the stabilization won't work and the footage will be a jittery mess. I've been using digital motion blur since i found out about this the hard way, after buying a pack of ND filters that i have no use for :( Not even with a gimbal does it work properly, the jitters will still happen. Anyway I don't think the motion blur turns the footage into something shot with a high-end camera, but it does make the footage more pleasing to watch.
Übersetzung Hello Qazi! I just watched your webinar. Strong! Really great tips. Thank you. Unfortunately there was no re-link to the downloads for me. Even after watching it a second time, I was not redirected or redirected. What can I do? Best regards Andre
Love your videos! Would love to see you color grade real estate footage sometime! preferrably in a non white walled house because I feel like houses that have colored walls are a little harder to color grade, thanks!
New subscriber ❤ please go over color grading in this clip too to understand how important it is. Not just blur does the trick here. New resolve user here too thanks 😊
could work, but i would stay with this post-fx method. you don't want to switch between nd filters everytime you go inside a building or switch locations in an instant.
The ND filter on the gopro significantly degrades stabilization at long shutter speeds, it would be impossible to shoot this scene as well using an ND filter.
Holly crap, this basically means there is no need to use NDs, or at least have the options of shooting in a high-frame-rate and add the motion blur on post for those times that (happen a lot) you happen to forget your ND filters... wow
@@marcomeeuwsenit would probably look unnatural, as motion blur is related to frame rate (and shutter speed). The higher is the frame rate, the shorter is the exposure time thus diminishing the motion blur in the frame.
Thanks for your perspective! I think this allows you to give the GoPro more utility within productions. Thanks for the video and tips.@@rodrigodearcayne
