FAQ

Spoiler

What's the difference between 24/30fps and 60fps?

24/30 is cinematic, 60fps is more lifelike. Britney's music videos are pretty dance oriented so you want to see all those beautiful fast dance moves in 60fps. fps means frame per seconds.

How do you do this?

I use sony vegas and plugin called "twixtor"

Youtube when?

Can't upload to youtube with original audio. Youtube strikes the video down before they are even watchable.

I DON'T LIKE IT I LIKE ORIGINAL MORE.

These are far from perfect. Converting 24fps video to 60fps is like adding flour to dough after the cake is ready. It can cause warps and weird artifacts on screen but these are just proof of concept, the original still exists

What's taking so long.

Took me 20 minutes to render first 9 seconds of sometimes It takes about 9 hours to complete whole video and I have to do it overnight because I can't use my computer otherwise

It's not 60fps

I noticed that my phone won't play it in 60fps if I don't activate the "request desktop site" in my browser. 

Video notes

Spoiler

BOMT

This is poor quality and not fully 60fps, I just wanted to try if you guys like it, I will upgrade it later

Sometimes

There's some warping between scenes and artifacts when a lot of hair is moving on screen but otherwise this is pretty good and she's so pretty Sorry, it's not the same iconic version that is on youtube but I couldn't find higher quality version so I had to use the version with less dancing.

Crazy

Lip are not very synced to singing for some reason  There's also annoying black things flickering in top and bottom but that's fixable later

Born to make you happy

Again, the quality is not top notch. The changes are not that drastic and you notice the difference mainly on dance scenes

Oops...

Sorry for late upload 

Stronger...

This is the director cut-video (for quality reasons). In this video she's standing on the spinning chair near the end and there's no stars on the night sky at the end.

that was awesome

[Good4Ya]

Thanks for sharing! 

[carlogiovanni]

What frame rate was it first filmed in?  It can only be as many frames as the original recording, right?

Looks great tho  

[WilderWein]

Thanks for posting! I dont even get how thats possible!

[Witty]

Awesome

It's called motion interpolation. It's made using an algorithm that tries to fill in what it thinks the missing frames in between would look like. This is exactly like that feature that some Smart TVs have. Personally I think it looks kinda bad and erratic.

[.: lucky :.]

thanks for taking the time to do this. looks good! there's some things I didn't notice before watching this

[MissSpearsSaysSo]

It looks great!

[Chris88]

I'm so shocked I didn't even know that was possible! It looks really great

Agreed. It's like people upscaling videos from 480p to 1080p and then saying they are HD videos. There's no point!*

*Unless your TV is so bad at upscaling that it is better to feed it a 1080p source.

can someone please explain what is going on, my brain registers it looks cool and funky and weird and very urban but i don't understand. i can't explain what i mean but the footage looks more 'real' than the original video

Yeah, some Smart TVs do that with some videos, they "fill in" the missing frames with what's supposed to be there, so in that way, some certain normal videos can be seen as "more real". Some VHS recordings can be converted like that too.

Well, the original video is about 30fps (frames per second). That's because it's standard in film industry and gives movies/tv shows and music videos that "cinematic feel". I doubled the frames with little bit magic  So it's now 60fps giving it more fluid feeling. But this isn't real 60fps because the added frames are kind of motion blur between the real frames so it looks kinda weird but it's still so much fun to watch

It looks more real because our brain is capable to register a way lot more frames per second than 30 and the more frames per second you see the more information your brain gets. 30 frames per second is  choppy in my opinion but 60fps is often kinda soap opera-ish (because most soap operas are 60fps).

Wow, great job, thanks a lot.

 

Now.... Would it be too much to ask you to do the rest of her videography.

Just do 1 at a time and take your time.

Yes, it looks disgusting. I hate when people leave the default settings on their TVs.
