Slow motion can be achieved in two ways: recording at a high frame rate or editing at a low frame rate. Each method has its own set of pros and cons, so you should choose the one that best fits your needs and resources. Recording at a high frame rate requires a camera that can capture a high number of frames per second, such as 60, 120, or 240 fps. This enables you to record the action at normal speed and then slow it down in post-production by adjusting the playback speed. An advantage of this method is that it allows for more flexibility and quality, as you can control the degree of slow motion and preserve the smoothness and sharpness of the motion. However, it also requires more storage space and processing power, as the file size and data rate increase with the frame rate. On the other hand, editing at a low frame rate involves using an editing software that can reduce the frame rate of your video, such as 24, 12, or 6 fps. This enables you to create the slow motion effect by stretching the duration of each frame and interpolating the missing frames. The advantage of this method is that it saves you storage space and processing power, as the file size and data rate decrease with the frame rate. However, it limits your flexibility and quality, as you can only slow down your video by a certain factor and risk losing the smoothness and sharpness of the motion.
