Flowmotion 2.02 (24H). Standard color settings

I recently started using GH2. Here is the first video with the firmware GH2 Flow Motion

A piece using Flowmotion 2.02 for half the shots, and a T2i for the rest... Edit/grade with FCPX.

As usually, t2i looks much more naturally cinematic.

@MichaelT In the salon vid, which cam/lens did you use for the interview of the guy? The angle thats straight to camera.

We recently completed four of a series of five spec commercials shot over a couple days, totally guerilla-style, in Austin, Texas. Our main interest is continuing features but commercials could be good for short-term cash flow. That's the theory anyhow.

...and I'm still completing the final spot which has CG/Motion-Graphics and VFX. I graded all of them to have a different look. I utilized ColorGHear ( @shian ) for all of the spots and Film Convert on the BBQ and the beer spot.

@matt_g2 Thanks! I know I only tend to remember the commercials that make me laugh. I was watching a compilation of classic spots from the 60s+70s the other night and funny used to be more rare. I couldn't help myself but fondly remember Demolition Man as I couldn't help but sing along to masterful jingles from back when agencies still treated these like art. It also helped that our talent, Greg Dorchak, is a total cut-up. We got him to play a serious role in our last film but he's an improv and stand-up guy so all of this was ground zero in his wheel house.

But, no, this is all Flowmotion. I wasn't sure at the beginning how much footage we were going to actually shoot so I knew I could get good quality with some space savings. I'd have maybe preferred, maybe, to shoot the beer and BBQ spots on Moon but I stayed consistent for all of them, also to evaluate the different graded looks in the context of all starting from the same base look out of the camera.

@matt_gh2 since all of this was shot at ISO 160 I felt pretty confident I was going to have enough detail. There's a section in one where I was surprised at the lack of tonality in flesh tones if Greg was at all in the shade. I had to treat them special in the grade. I'm shooting some stuff now with Slipstream and will be comparing the two patches under similar circumstances, since they're at similar data rates.

24L mode is better than stock. If you have troubles with Flowmotion try "sanity"

Hey guys, today I received a "Staff Pick" for my video shot on my GH2. The hack used was flowmotion- just wanted to give a big thanks to this forum and developers!

A promotional video I shot with gh2 with Flowmotion patch for the new online community of food lovers, Foodzai.

Hi everyone. Recently purchased a NTSC GH2. Upgraded the firmware to Panasonic's 2011 official 1.1 patch, which allows HBR etc.

I became immediately frustrated with the GH2's stuttering/flickering/tearing/interlacing on fast moving motion, or even calculated panning motion. From what I've read a lot of that is unavoidable (?) due to AVHCD etc (please clarify?). Not sure if it's the FCP7 canvas playing tricks on me as those issues are minimised/non existant in Quicktime playback (I have the latest iMac everything as of 2013, btw).

I thought I'd give Flomotion V2.02 a go in a bid to clean up those distractions yet I'm not sure if it's compatible/activated alongside Panasonic's v1.1 patch? Eg: ptools asks to 'Load Firmware', I select 'GH2__V.11', Flomotion appears in the 'F' circle, I select it, save a new patch, load and install into the camera. They're the only 2 patches installed, btw.

After shooting some tests; yes the footage has great clarity in DOF work, yes the file sizes are larger (currently noodling with 720p, 30fps, 1/60 etc), however the aforementioned image motion flicker is still apparent in places. I use 5DRGB > 25p, Progressive, ProRes422HQ before throwing into FCP7 too - that cleans it up, but does nothing for the lines. I guess what I'm asking is:

1. Can Flomotion help with this?
2. If not, what can I do, if anything?

I've tried all GH2 modes, deactivated clip and sequence 'Field Dominance' in FCP, but still nothing. I've watched many online examples - some GH2 footage shows no signs of it, while others suffer from it. HELP PLEASE!

Greatest Patch ever. I'd like to share my first step into filming, using FlowMotion 2.02 at 6.400 ISO. You see a nightly rush hour of Ulm, a City in southern Germany.
