THE SETTINGS

MOVI

Quick rundown on how I setup my MoVI for  MoVILapse.

  • Reduce Remote Scale to ~4 deg/ sec to limit how fast the MoVI Can Pan
  • Increase pan majestic smoothing to 25-50
  • Set MoVI to Majestic Pan and Smooth Lock Tilt
  • Use window of 0-10 (0 if you want pan to follow every little move, 5-10 if you want some window where little moves do not show up – like lane changes etc)

CAMERA

  • 1 fps if I am going < 35mph
  • 2fps if I am going > 35mph
  • Use slow shutter for nice smooth motion blur

GENERAL TIPS

  • Learn to think in 10x speed….every move you do will playback 10x faster
  • Practice!  Get out and shoot, dial in your technique
  • Try crazy ideas….media is free
  • Make sure everything is tight!  Nobody wants to kill cameras on accident

 

That should get you started…please share your results with the Freefly team!  We have been using this setup on all our recent productions
