Producing 24p Video: Covers the Canon XL2 and the Panasonic DVX-100a

Description

Traditional digital video (DV) cameras capture images at the rate of 30 frames per second in contrast to film camera speeds of 24 frames per second (24p). New DV cameras are making it possible to shoot DV at the 24p frame rate. Since the 24p frame rate more closely approximates the look and feel of film, it is the speed of choice whenever a "cinematic" look is desired. 24p video also offers certain compression options that are advantageous to web and wireless delivery. 24p productions require special techniques all the way through the production, from preproduction planning through post and output.

This introductory "crash course" in 24p video production is ideal for the student and new filmmaker. Each chapter is constructed to include techniques, examples, tips, and case studies. Field techniques include real-world setups (close-up, medium shot, wide shot) presented as demonstrations or tutorials. Case studies present profiles of people producing 24p projects. Software tutorials include step-by-step instructions that illustrate how to work with 24p material in NLE, compositor, DVD authoring, and audio applications.

描述

傳統的數位影像（DV）相機以每秒30幀的速度捕捉影像，而電影相機的速度則為每秒24幀（24p）。新的DV相機使得以24p幀率拍攝DV成為可能。由於24p幀率更接近電影的外觀和感覺，所以在追求「電影感」時，這是首選的速度。24p影片還提供了一些有利於網絡和無線傳輸的壓縮選項。24p製作需要從前期規劃到後期和輸出的整個過程中使用特殊技術。

這本介紹性的「24p影片製作速成課程」非常適合學生和新導演。每一章都包含技巧、示例、提示和案例研究。現場技巧包括以示範或教程形式呈現的現實世界的設置（特寫、中景、遠景）。案例研究介紹了製作24p項目的人物概況。軟體教程包括逐步指示，說明如何在非線性編輯、合成器、DVD製作和音頻應用中處理24p素材。
