Okay, have you ever seen a mannequin challenge video? You know, one of those
videos what people look like they're standing still and the camera's moving
around the room and everyone seems like they're frozen in time. Well they're
actually pretty easy to create. I'm going to demonstrate how it's done, I'll show you
filming it and I'll show you the finished product.
The first time that I filmed one of these it actually turned out so good and
so let me describe what I did first. Okay, I had a camera that could film in slow
motion, sixty frames per second is all, typical normal speed is 30 frames per
second and my Canon ATD, I'm actually filming a time-lapse over there, my
camera is right there, that's my Canon 80D, it can film at 60 frames per second
so that's the one that I'm going to use when I demonstrate it in a moment. By the
way, isn't this beautiful? Sunrise. Oh, you can't see the sunrise. Well it's really..
Oh, there we go. Colorful sunrise happening right this
moment so that's pretty good lighting on my face. So I found that there are really
only three things that you need to pay attention to when doing a mannequin
challenge video. The first one is that speed, increase the recording speed up to
60 frames per second so that then when you're in your editing software, you can
stretch it out and slow it down 50% so that it's smooth when things are going
half the speed so that's one trick, okay, record at 60 frames per second, maybe you
could do higher. The second thing and you'll notice that I'm gonna use a glide
cam, okay, glide cam isn't necessary, you could just hold your hand and you can
film this with your phone but a glide cam allows it to be extra extra smooth
so that the movements when I walk around and I've practiced, I've been using a
glide cam for years so don't just buy a glide cam, a $500 thing just
because you want to film a Mannequin challenge video but it really does help. If
you're going to be filming lots of these things then I do recommend getting a
glide cam and then learn how to use, it'll take some practice.
There's the steadicam for different things as well that might make that a
bit easier and then I'll add to that, walk around and do slow movements
but you want to move kind of quick because remember, you're recording at 60
frames per second and you're going to slow it down so you don't want to walk too
slow and then the third thing is, you just have people pick a pose that looks
unnatural like they're kind of mid motion and then have them hold as still
as possible. Now everyone in the room even if your back is facing toward them,
give them the instruction that they need to hold still the entire time even when
they think the isn't facing them or when they think
that they're not on camera because they they might not know how wide the
angle is, they might think that they're on the other side of the room but any
movements that you see it kind of ruins the effect so everyone in the room has
to be completely still, there can't be things moving in the wind
or stuff like that. I don't know, I guess you get have different effects but
for that for all intents purposes of this video, make sure everyone holds
still and then just make movement around them and you'll get a really cool effect
so why don't we go check it out.
As a bonus, I want to show you a video I did for the national speakers association. It's a lof of fun
There are 2 mistakes. See if you can find them. One is a man moving around in the background and the other is someone blinking.
They are hard to find
