Whether we like it or not, HFR ( High Frame Rate ) cinema and entertainment ishere to stay; just as 3D. Directors, DP's and all production positions would be best served to learn howto make their craft perform better in all aspects, whether it's shot for 2D or 3D HFR at either 48FPS or60FPS and higher. HFR cinema is not forgiving and does not allow the veil of protection for lesser than excellentperformance in production values. HFR exposes all the flaws in many areas of production, however this is a goodthing too. It will force people to raise the bar on their talents and skill much higher on all aspects of production likeacting, editing, cinematography, costuming, makeup, lighting and much more. This in the long run will improvethe art and craft of cinema production, and in the end a much more exciting experience for audiences.The question is how will the distinctions be in the market place so audience can choose. Peter Jackson'sfilm The Hobbit will be in three flavors when released. A 2D version at 24FPS, a 2D 48FPS and 48FPS 3D.48FPS movies and blu-ray's may have distinctions just as we have phrases like "FULL HD" , "1080P" 3D, 2Detc. For 48FPS vs 24FPS version we might seefor 24FPS andfor 48FPS and higher frame rates. Then audiences could go for what motion characteristics they prefer.I was sent this information and attached video's by a colleague DP- so I'll pass it on to all of yousince this is of interest to many including myself. The below tests which are in a zip, contain twoshots. One being filmed at 24FPS and the other file is the same shot filmed 48FPS for playback at48FPS.This will give you an idea of how 48FPS looks since no one seems to have yet to upload atrue real time 48FPS material ( non slow motion ).Tip: If your using quicktime, be sure that your getting proper 48fpsplayback speed. If it drops below, you loose the effect of 48FPS.BLUEREI'S RETARDED RED FPS TEST - 24 & 48 FPSTwo files in the zip folder: rocks24.mov and rocks48.mov.•48FPS•1/270 shutter speed•2.40:1 Aspect•2500 ISO•White balance @ 5000k•REDCODE 12:1 (default)•24FPS•1/48 shutter speed (180 degree)•2.40:1 Aspect•500 ISO•White balance @ 5000k•REDCODE 12:1 (default)Zip file size: 477mb.This is a very good example of 48FPS- shot on RED, it compares theusual 24p 1/48s with the Peter Jackson settings: 48p and 1/64s.Link #2 In case first linksbandwidth is exceeded.(posted in the comments here by Marden Blake:Until December or Peter Jackson releases a 48fps official trailer. Here'sThe Hobbit trailer with a motion smoothing algorithm applied to it. It's notexact nor scientific, however you get a very small approximate how the48fps Hobbit will feel in theaters come this December. I recommend you watch it atthe frame size it is and not watch it full screen as that will blur/artifact the image up.Footage from Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit," shot at 48 frames per second, has ignited the discussion.I wonder if this is a similar reaction people are having today about High Frame Rate Cinema?
