Here&#8217;s everything you need to know\u00a0about the technique.<\/h2>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">Have you ever watched a war film or an action film and wondered why certain scenes look so clean and intense? Why certain scenes have an almost <em>raw<\/em> sharpness to them? It&#8217;s hard to explain \u2014 but you know it when you see it. This look is usually achieved one of two ways:\u00a0high frame rate\u00a0or\u00a0high shutter speed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">We&#8217;ve written about the use of\u00a0<a title=\"Premiumbeat\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/your-best-options-for-high-frame-rate-filmmaking\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">high frame rate in film and video production<\/a> before. Now let&#8217;s turn our attention to high shutter speed. Here&#8217;s a video from <a title=\"Story &amp; Heart\" href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/storyandheart\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Story &amp; Heart<\/a>\u00a0(via\u00a0<a title=\"Vimeo\" href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Vimeo Video School<\/a>)\u00a0that covers the differences between high shutter speed and high frame rate.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/138261651?color=ffda39&amp;title=0&amp;byline=0\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">The basics: higher shutter speeds introduce less light to the sensor. As less light is introduced, less motion blur is seen. This gives the footage a look of hyperreality. A sharpness and crispness that almost overwhelms your brain. Before we dive deeper, let&#8217;s look at\u00a0the differences between capturing high shutter speed on a video camera versus a cinema camera.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"shutter-speed-vs-shutter-angle\" style=\"color: #404040;\">Shutter Speed vs. Shutter Angle<\/h3>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">Shutter speed is calculated by fractions (speed) in video cameras such as DSLRs. In cinema cameras, it&#8217;s calculated in degrees (angles). Look at it like this: if you have a 1\/50 shutter speed in a DSLR camera, that same shutter in a cinema camera would be a 172.8 degree shutter angle.\u00a0<a title=\"Pro Video Coalition\" href=\"http:\/\/www.provideocoalition.com\/shutter-speed-vs-shutter-angle\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Pro Video Coalition has a great breakdown<\/a> on how to get an accurate calculation of both shutter speed and shutter angle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">Here&#8217;s a quick and easy conversion chart\u00a0from the article. The numbers below show the shutter equivalent between speed and angle.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/32 = 270<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/48 = 180<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/50 = 172.8<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/60 = 144<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/96 = 90<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #404040;\">1\/120 = 72<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"live-sports\" style=\"color: #404040;\">Live Sports<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-72682 size-full\" title=\"High Shutter Speed: Red Bull\" src=\"https:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg\" alt=\"High Shutter Speed: Red Bull\" width=\"755\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=300,143 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=277,132 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=359,171 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=543,259 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=560,267 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Red_Bull_shutterstock_74889073.jpg?resize=150,72 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Image via <a title=\"Shutterstock\" href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/pic.mhtml?id=74889073&amp;src=id\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Shutterstock<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #404040;\">Sports videography might be the one\u00a0area of the\u00a0media industry where high shutter speed is used most.
