What is Video?Video is electronically captured anddisseminated sequential still images(frames) in rapid enough succession tocreate the illusion of motion, storedeither analog or digitally, andsynchronized with sound. 6. What is Video?Video is electronically captured anddisseminated sequential still images(frames) in rapid enough succession tocreate the illusion of motion, storedeither analog or digitally, andsynchronized with sound. 7. Analog A wave is recorded or used in its original form Light or sound are converted to a fluctuating electrical wave thatis directly recorded, usually to a magnetic tapemedium, mirroring the original stimulus. It produces an electrical copy of an original stimulus. Analog signal fluctuates exactly like the original stimulus. Analog signal is continuous. 8. Digital The analog wave is sampled at some interval, and then turnedinto numbers that are stored in the digital device Light and sound are recorded not as an identical copy of theoriginal stimulus, but as discrete on-and-off pulses, zeros andones, binary digits. It is a representation rather than a copy. Discontinuous. Signal is sampled. Advantage: Resists data distortion and error in duplication. Nogenerational loss. Advantage: Allows for manipulation of sound and image. 9. Digitalhttp://youtu.be/kR7227_ndqQ 10.

Digital Sampling/Quantizing Compression and Codecs (Compression-Decompression, Encoding-Decoding) Downloading and StreamingAdvantages Lossless Copying Compression Manipulation 13. Basic Image FormationCompression CODEC a device or program for encoding and/ordecoding digital information(DivX, Xvid, H.264, WMV, etc.) Container of Wrapper Format(AVI, FLV, QuickTIme, MPEG, MP4, etc.) Lossy vs. Lossless Lossy - Permanently removes information, such asrepeated pixels. Lossless - Compresses and decompressed withoutloss of information. Compression Ratio - the higher the ratio, the smallerthe file; the lower the ratio, the higher the quality. 14.

Sequential Still Images (Frames) The individual pictures that make upvideo are frames. 18. Sequential Still Images (Frames) The individual pictures that make upvideo are frames. The frames are comprised of millions ofelectrically excitable pixels (pictureelements) 19. Pixels The individual pictures that make upvideo are frames. The frames are comprised of millions ofelectrically excitable pixels (pictureelements) For color, each pixel is comprised ofthree parts (red, blue, green) 20. Pixelshttp://youtu.be/ugV6cLgwomo 21.

What is Video?Video is electronically captured anddisseminated sequential still images(frames) in rapid enough succession tocreate the illusion of motion, storedeither analog or digitally, andsynchronized with sound. 45. Frame Rates(frames per second)Shutter Speed(fraction of a second) 46. Frame RatesThe number of frames captured in a second(frames per second) Shutter Speed -The time light is allowed to strike theimage sensor to create a singleimage. (fraction of a second) 47. Frame Rates(frames per second)Higher frame capture and playback rates result in more information and higher picture quality with increasedsharpness, less stutter and flicker, and less motion blur. 48. Frame Rates(frames per second)Impact on Image Quality and Smoothness of Motionhttp://youtu.be/e54Q1KXRmX0 49.

Frame Rates (frames per second)Impact on Image Quality and Smoothness of Motionhttp://youtu.be/3xsSSsVqSA0 51. Frame Rates (frames per second) Impact on Video SpeedWhen video is played back at the same frame rate as it was captured, motion appears normal. When video capture speed is faster than it is played back, slow motion results, since the video is playingback at a SLOWER speed than it was captured. 30fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Normal Motion 60fps Capture - 60fps Playback: Normal Motion 60fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Slow Motion300fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Slow Motion 52. Frame Rates(frames per second)Impact on Video SpeedWhen video is played back at the same frame rate as it was captured, motion appears normal. When video capture speed is slower than it is playedback, fast motion results, since the video is playing backat a FASTER speed than it was captured.30fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Normal Motion60fps Capture - 60fps Playback: Normal Motion 30fps Capture - 60fps Playback: Fast Motion3fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Fast Motion 53. Frame Rates(frames per second)Impact on Video SpeedWhen video is played back at the same frame rate as it was captured, motion appears normal. When video playback speed is altered in post production to a slower frame rate than it wascaptured, slow motion results, since the video is playing back at a SLOWER speed than it was captured. 30fps Capture - 30fps Playback: Normal Motion 60fps Capture - 60fps Playback: Normal Motion60fps Capture -30fps (or 50%) Playback: Slow Motion 60fps Capture - 6fps (10%) Playback: Slow Motion 54.

Frame Rates (frames per second) Impact on Image Speedhttp://vimeo.com/11648907 56. Frame Rates (frames per second) Impact on Image Speedhttp://youtu.be/kgdyBvHdNKY 57. Shutter Speed (fraction of a second)Generally, shutter speed must be at least half of theframe rate. At 30 frames per second, the shutter speed will be approximately 1/60th of a second. It can be faster is the camera allows.A higher frame rate requires a faster shutter speed.Shutter speed can be increased independent of the frame rate.A faster the shutter speed results in diminished blurA slower shutter speed results in added blur. 58.
