When you&#8217;re on set shooting high-speed for commercials, time is money and we&#8217;re always shooting down to the last minute. As soon as we&#8217;re done shooting, production always wants to wrap as quickly as possible, usually not leaving us very much time to offload and backup our media. Phantom.CINE files are massive in size and can take several hours to offload with traditional USB drives. Utilizing OWC\u2019s super fast <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/shop\/envoy-express\/thunderbolt-3\">Envoy Express<\/a> SSD drives allows me to offload the same amount of media in a fraction of the time so we can get out of the studio without any overtime penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How has OWC improved your workflow?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having the ability to transfer files so quickly is a game-changer. I can now offload files directly to my raid for a redundant personal backup then make multiple copies for production to take\/ship out. This ensures that the footage will be delivered to the post house safely and on the rare occasion something happens in transit, I have a safety copy on my personal system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How much storage do you use on an average shoot?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every shoot is completely different but due to the large sizes of Phantom.CINE files it&#8217;s not unusual to shoot between two and four terabytes in a day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-phantom-cinematography\">Phantom Cinematography&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How did you get started in your profession?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom.jpg\" alt=\"Chris Vanderschaaf with his Phantom camera\" class=\"wp-image-74128\" width=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom.jpg 959w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-96x120.jpg 96w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-258x323.jpg 258w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-152x190.jpg 152w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-96x120@2x.jpg 192w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-258x323@2x.jpg 516w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-phantom-152x190@2x.jpg 304w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 959px) 100vw, 959px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After about 12 years of freelancing and working for various agencies\/studios, I ended up on set with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phantomhighspeed.com\/\">Phantom<\/a> camera for a fire-breathing slow motion shoot. I was immediately hooked and knew that was what I wanted to specialize in. I started driving 8 hours one way anytime there was an opportunity to work with the camera until I could purchase that same camera myself. Fast forward several years later, and I\u2019m still working in the same field and specializing in high-speed cinematography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your favorite thing about your profession?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite thing about being a Phantom cinematographer and director is the unique challenges that come with high-speed shooting, whether it&#8217;s a close-up drink poured into a glass full of ice or an athlete who is almost frozen mid-leap across two buildings. The goal is to tell a visually compelling story within a single shot. It&#8217;s kind of like a puzzle knowing which pieces of gear to use, and how to use them to achieve the desired results for your scene\/shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shooting-in-high-speed-vs-standard-motion\">Shooting in high-speed vs standard motion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you provide some information about shooting in slow motion?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shooting in high-speed is a completely different process than shooting standard frame rates for commercials and films. When someone shoots what is referred to as standard frame rates they are usually shooting 24 (23.98) for NTSC USA or 50fps for PAL European standards. High-speed frame rates are technically anything above that but usually 120-1000fps depending on the subject matter. The process of shooting 24fps footage is what you see in most behind-the-scenes videos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera.jpeg\" alt=\"Chris Vanderschaaf posing with his Phantom high-speed camera\" class=\"wp-image-74154\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-90x120.jpeg 90w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-242x323.jpeg 242w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-143x190.jpeg 143w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-90x120@2x.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-242x323@2x.jpeg 484w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/chris-vanderschaaf-pose-with-camera-143x190@2x.jpeg 286w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Shooting high-speed on a Phantom is completely different. The amount of footage you are able to capture at one time is limited to your camera\u2019s internal memory and the frame rate\/resolution combination you are choosing to capture. For example, a Phantom Flex 4k with a 64GB internal memory can record at 1000fps for approx 5.3 seconds. This means you only have 5.3 seconds to capture whatever you are trying to film at high-speed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you are ready to capture your scene in high speed, your Phantom tech will enable the camera into what is called <em>buffer mode<\/em>. This is a continuous looping mode that writes and rewrites those 5.3 seconds until you \u201ctrigger\u201d the camera which writes those 5.3 seconds to internal memory. Once you have triggered the camera, you then playback what you captured and choose which portion you want to save to the camera\u2019s removable media.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are more technical aspects of how to do all of that but the key difference is the short amount of time you have to capture a shot versus just letting the camera roll and improvising on the fly. There are no do-overs in capturing high-speed&#8211;you get the shot or you don\u2019t. This is something that can make Phantom shooting challenging and also rewarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-challenges-of-editing-high-speed-footage\">The challenges of editing high-speed footage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are there any challenges to editing high-speed footage? How do the OWC drives handle it?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest challenge with editing high-speed footage is the file size. The Phantom file sizes are massive compared to a lot of other formats on the market, especially if you are used to shooting with any of the popular cameras that record in H.264. For example, a 19 second raw (.cine) clip on the Phantom Vet 4k is approximately 4.9GB. That same clip in prores 422 HQ is approximately 1.26GB and at H.264 it\u2019s approximately 120 MB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a typical Phantom shoot, I probably capture between 2-4 terabytes of raw footage for the client. The massive file sizes are why I need super-fast drives for not only editing but offloading and making backups. Slow drives aren\u2019t the worst thing when you only have to deal with 100 GB of footage. But when you\u2019re dealing with terabytes, you really need speedy drives to offload the clips as quickly as possible and start making backups so you\u2019re not sitting around on set for 3 hours racking up overtime for your client.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/shop\/envoy-express\/thunderbolt-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"284\" height=\"114\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/envoy-pro-ex-ve-400x160-1-284x114.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/envoy-pro-ex-ve-400x160-1-284x114.jpg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/envoy-pro-ex-ve-400x160-1-190x76.jpg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/envoy-pro-ex-ve-400x160-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/envoy-pro-ex-ve-400x160-1-190x76@2x.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 284px) 100vw, 284px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em><strong>OWC Envoy Pro EX<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When you are editing massive Phantom files in your NLE, they are almost impossible to play back in real-time without fast SSD drives.
