Looking for HFR 360 Shutter Video to demo in ATSC at DVinfo.net

Jon Fairhurst · March 23rd, 2016, 12:05 PM

ATSC is working on the next generation broadcasting system, ATSC 3.0, which is set to include UHD resolution, high dynamic range, and high frame rate support.

You can see the video candidate standard here: A/341, ATSC Candidate Standard: Video - ATSC

(BTW, if you see any issues, let me know. I'm vice-chair and document editor.)

Anyway, I (and my employer) am looking to demonstrate some high-frame rate technologies, but its been challenging to find really good high speed video for evaluation and demonstration. If anybody would like to contribute some content, let me know.

Ideally, the video would be:
* Made available to show and demo with a simple license.
* At a multiple of 120 fps.
* Shot with 360 degree shutter
* Be somehow representative of sports. For instance, show fast moving people or stuff they swung, hit, or threw.
* Have very fast motion over a clean background - I'd like to show strobing artifacts when frames are dropped.

I only need clips of 5 seconds or less.

Thanks in advance for any contributions! I'm happy to show a "video shot by..." card during the demo, if requested.

Jon, if you get in touch with the folks at Abel Cine who do the Phantom Flex 4k training they may have what you're looking for.

That's a good lead. I'll check it out.

That said, I'm looking for high frame rate sport-like stuff, rather than slow motion effects. The Phantom Flex tends to be used for humming birds, popping balloons, and gun shots played back super slow. The broadcast use case is a bit different. It's about long form, real time, at high frame rate for realistic sports, news, and documentaries. The result is smooth motion with little motion blur, which keeps UHD pictures sharp on large screens. (It's a different goal than 24fps and 180° for that dreamy, cinema feel.)

I've been looking at Vimeo's creative commons stuff, but much of it is from lower-tier equipment, or is for slow motion effects, like dropping watermelons. I'm hoping that somebody here has something from a RED, C300 or similar.
