have you ever been watching a music video and you could tell that it's in
slow motion but somehow they're still on beat with the words and you're like how do
they do that well I recently did that for the first time in my life and when
the video came out it came out good so some people asked me how did I do it so
in this video I'm gonna show you guys how to do the whole slow motion but on
beat music video trick in this video right here stay tuned
what's up everyone my name is Cracka Lack welcome back to Cracka Lack TV in
today's video we're gonna do the whole slow motion on beat music video trick
effect alright so story time I was in Trinidad
Colorado shooting a music video for a group that goes by The Stixxx and when I
heard the song it had a real slow laid-back vibe and the first thing I
thought of was man I'm picturing those music videos where it's like slow motion
but they're on beat I wonder how do you do that I knew it had something to do
with recording them at 60 frames per second so I could slow it down but
recording them to a song that was sped up that was playing faster so that way
when I slow it down it was still on beat so the first thing I did was open up my
phone and I went to the App Store and I searched song speed changer and I found
the app that was literally called song speed changer so you had to do some math
here right
just remember that the final product of your video is gonna playback at 24
frames per second so you know that normally doing any slow motion you're
gonna film at 60 frames per second and then you slow it down to playback at 40%
so it plays back smoothly slow motion how do you do this with them saying the
words where you can slow it down like that after many hours of trying to think
of what number in speed and percentage is playback speed I figured out okay in
a perfect world you have the song playing back at regular speed 100% and
you have the final video at 24 frames per second so if we were to speed the
song of 200% so it's playing twice as fast and then we play back the video
footage at 50% speed half the speed it would work perfectly and Beyond beat but
the problem was when you play back the song at twice the speed 200% it's so
fast that it's a challenge for the artist to actually say two words and be
on beat with it like you pictured chipmunk so make sure you have a slow
song for this in the first place and what we ended up doing I don't believe
it's the exact correct way to do it but I set the camera at 60 frames per second
and what we did was I sped the song up to 150 percent so it was faster but it
wasn't exactly twice the speed or even two and a half times the speed
I'm gonna show you guys on my computer right here exactly how I did it on my
timeline also if you're not already subscribed hit the bell to be notified
for future uploads so you don't miss any more good content just like this
right here alright you guys so I'm using Sony Vegas Pro but the same concept
works for whatever software that you're using
so first let's obviously add our song to the timeline now we're gonna drag the
video up there now this this is how I did it and it worked I mute the song all
right you guys ready three two one
there you go so what I did was I looked for the very
first word of the song I can see right there I cut the clip then I look for the
last word of the song okay so step one is match up the video clip first word of
the song with the actual audio clip first word of the song right here so
these line up now we've got to go to the last word of the audio file at the end
yeah yeah I can see right there so what I did was I just stretched out the clip
to get to right there and then when you zoom in you can see that it's actually on
and it looks so dope and it fit the song
the vibe to feel everything perfectly now I'm sure you guys have seen some of
the music videos where it's the opposite and it like Missy Elliott music videos
when she used to be like up in the frame and when she's moving really fast and it
looks like she's moving twice as fast but she's actually on beat that's a
similar effect to this but you're actually doing the opposite right I
think so nowadays with like tik tok and I think
snapchat they have built-in features where you can hit record and have the
song playback with slow motion and then you act out and then when you play it
and it plays back at normal speed it looks like you're moving on extra fast
but you're actually on be very similar if you guys want to see a tutorial on
how to do that let me know in the comments and I'll do a tutorial
specifically on the fast-paced high-energy Missy Elliott looking fine
Busta Rhymes Missy Elliott Busta Rhymes looking effect there you guys hope this
