Mac OSx 10.15.7 – 14.X Video Surgeon 3 for Apple
Win 7 – Win 11 Video Surgeon 3 for Windows

This page illustrates how Video Surgeon can be used to slow a video of a skier down, as well as zoom in to examine the form. The videos below are a great example of just a few of the things Video Surgeon can do. The example clip below was taken from a YouTube video we downloaded using Video Surgeon. Four different version of this clip are supplied below. Below the videos are a series of pictures or images from the video.

Video 1: This is the original clip from the YT video at normal speed and with no zoom.

Video 2: This second video is the same as above except that it is at 25% of the original speed. It is easy to see how the slow motion helps you better see and analyze the form of the skier in the video.

Video 3: This third video is the same as above except we have applied a 2-fold zoom. Both slow motion and zooming are applied to make it easier to closely examine form of the skier as he goes thru progression of his jump.

Video 4: This fourth video is slowed even further, to 6.25%. No zoom is applied. Again the value of slow motion for analyzing the motion of the skier as he spins thru the air is apparent.

Pictures from video: Video Surgeon allows you to print to paper or to file, one or a series of images. In the example below we have the same image shown but at different magnification levels. Click on the thumbnail to see the full sized image.
