Npr fly around videos

Yep, I'm sure the final h.264 is 30Hz - but if you essentially have each frame repeated 3 times, you've got 10Hz.
So check carefully each encoding stage in your workflow, to make sure its always 29.97/30Hz. -
Ok Adam & others, bear with me for a minute as I am somewhat challenged when it comes to this stuff.
If I want a video that plays at 30 fps and I want that video to be 2 minutes long...
120 seconds x 30 frames per second = 3600 images with a duration of .033 each (1 second divided by 30)
so, if that is correct, when I set up sketchup to generate an image set I need it to generate 3600 images along my chosen scene path
Lets say I have 20 scenes and the animation settings are set to 30fps
My scene transition settings are set at 2 seconds (just because that is what it was set at)I know from past experience that this set up generates 1142 images.
I think the math says that 20/1142=.0175 so if I take that .0175x3600 = 63 scenes to generate 3600 images.
I am way above my pay grade here...am I on the right track? 63 scenes will be a huge time consuming process...
does changing the scene transition time change the image output per scene?
Must let the cpu between my ears rest now. please help if you can.
thanks

I have looked around a bit for npr tres, but I need to try harder. Maybe this very minute!

Thanks Jo-ke, I have them now.

Correct

20 x 2 = 40 seconds animation @ 30 fps = 1200 images

OK, better to say 120 seconds / 20 scenes = 6 seconds per scene transition.
So set the transition time to 6.0 seconds and for 20 scenes it will be 120 seconds long. Job done.

Yes because video is output at 30 frames per second. More seconds, means more frames.

Thank you thank you thank you I will try those settings as soon as this weekend. I will rerun the process on one that I have already made so that I can do a comparison

on a somewhat related topic,
I have a new computer that does not make it through the process of generating an image set using the animation tool in su.
It is a dell alienware 17x, 32gb ram,partial solid state drive, partial sata drive, windows 7 pro,
su 2014 & 2015 I am forced to create all my image sets on my old computer which is semi retired.Any thoughts?

So, I have utilized all the good advice received in this thread and I think I actually now have the ability to make these movies true 30fps. It took a little fussing with my video editing software, but I am pleased with the smoothness of the video.
Thanks to all of you for your help.
30fps npr movie

Looks great Paul, nice model.
