Speeding up audio

[CosmicJunkie]

Friends,

a buddy of mine needs to shoot a music video at high speed and wants me to burn him two separate files, on sped up to 36 fps and one to 55 fps. How do i use pro tools to do this??

Thanks,

Faisal

Before we go further, I think you'll need to give a little more detail about what you intend to do.

Does he want the audio sped up as well? If so, you can use Time Compression Expanssion or Elastic Audio to do this. Which method you use depends on what result you're trying to obtain.

I think you should clarify exactly what trying to do and we can help from there...

Faisal you're not clear with your question but it seems like the filmmaker is trying to achieve a slow motion look.
Shooting the performer lip-sync or play to a sped-up playback audio source and then in post slow down the film to the original audio speed.
If so, use Time Compression Expanssion or Elastic Audio to do this as DigiSupt suggested.

Doubling the speed of the audio (example 4 minute source time compressed into 2 minutes) and shooting 48 fps on negative film or High-Def will give you that effect when played back in 24 fps
36 fps would mean you would have to speed up your audio 3/4 times.
However 55 fps is kind of odd... are you sure it is not 48 fps?
