Overcranking

Description

The term over/under-cranking actually comes from the time when 'analogue' film cameras were still manually operated. The operator had to turn a manual crank in order to move the roll of film inside the camera; the faster the crank was turned, the more images per second were shot by the camera, and vice versa. So by manually changing the film speed during recording, a slow-motion or fast motion effect could be achieved when this footage was later shown at the fixed typical film rate of 24 frames per second (fps). I like to try and recreate the effect by using my digital camera or camcorder.
