Do we need 60fps

Writing by jamieg on Saturday, 18 of December , 2010 at 4:22 pm

In this video I demonstrate the advantages of shooting at faster then 24fps. (at 60fps)  It definitely has a different look.

I personally think it looks more realistic, but others have commented on it looking more VIDEOish. ie not FILMish.  Either way it is yet another example of the innovations going digital will bring us.

60fps content will defiantly bring a new dimension for action films.  In some ways, similar to 3D, but with a wider acceptance (3D simply does not work well with a large portion of the general population).

NOTE: This file is 60fps if view from itunes or via the cinetechgeek.com website.  Other sites like YouTube who carry this content do not currently support the playback of more then 30fps.
