The joy of slow motion
Capturing more frames per second offers the potential for sharper, smoother videos, and that’s what Apple claims to do with the new features of its iSight cameras. However, there are a number of other apps that allow you to shoot videos in slow motion
Aim,
shoot and click! Amidst all the hoopla over the new iPhone 6 and
iPhone 6 Plus and their motion processors and larger
[Android
- free]
To
use this app, the video needs to be already shot. Once you launch
the app you can select the clip that you want to use, and once you
upload the video you can play it back to see the original footage.
Once your video is uploaded it is split into multiple one- s econd
bars, also referred to as the speed shuttle. Slide your finger to
select the moment in the video that you want to focus, and the slow
motion on!
Unlike
the other apps that let you choose in steps of 25%, 40%, 50% and
other options, here you flick your screen up and down in the speed
shuttle to select a speed bump profile, which is automated to make
your video look as if a professional had shot it. Preview instantly
and once you like the look, you can choose to export the clip in
5-second, 10-second or wholesome formats.
Once
you are ready to export, you can share your videos on Facebook,
YouTube or screens, it was also announced that Apple’s latest
smartphones would have a much better camera, with capability to
shoot videos of up to 240 frames per second, giving you crystal
clear and crisp slow motion effects. even save it to a cloud
(Internet storage) folder that is accessible via your Android phone.
The app comes with just one type of edit for free and other edits
have to be purchased.
SLOWLY
[free
for windows mobile phones]
Slowly
lets you shoot videos outside the app and then edit them to add slow
motion affects. Launch the app, load and scroll through the video to
find your start and end points But just in case you do not want to
splurge that hefty amount but still want the same effect, there are
apps that can come to your aid. We look at some. and you can choose
the section you want to slow down.
Slow
motion speeds of 50%, 40% and 25% are available, and in sections
where you slow down the video, the sound is removed too
he
app uses a low resolution preview to help you browse faster, and
only after you render the video it is available in high resolution.
The app does not let you save the video but you
can
share it on Facebook, One Drive and other social media. The quality
of the videos depends on the phone being used, but you can achieve
some interesting slow motion ef f ects, whether that of your child
playing cricket or just having fun at the beach.
Slow
motion videos are an interesting way to view stuff and these apps
render the videos beautifully. The end result will still depend on
how they are shot, and how good your phone camera is.
