SS rejections for slow motion; what did I do wrong?
KB:
I've been submitting stock videos for a long time now, but when it comes to slow motion clips -- I admit it, I'm never really sure what I'm doing. ::)
So, my source clip was shot at 59.94 fps. I put the clip into an After Effects project, which sets the frame rate to match the source.
I then do a Time Stretch of 200%, which doubles the clip's time length.
Finally, I render the clip at 29.97 fps, and the final duration matches what I expect. (That is, 10 seconds of the clip at 59.94 takes up 20 seconds on the timeline, and creates a 20-second clip at 29.97.)
So does anyone know why what I'm doing is wrong, and what I should be doing?
increasingdifficulty:
1. Right-click on original clip before putting it in the timeline/comp
2. Interpret footage (Main)
3. Conform to frame rate (whatever you like)
Done.
Then create a new comp from it.

Thank you very much! I'll give that a try (though it seems too easy; should be more difficult than that ;D).

But that might not have been the reason for the rejection. :)
It could have just been the content, exposure, sharpness, or anything else.

Perhaps so; I'm going to re-submit these new renders and find out.
The rejection reason given:
Frame Rate / Shutter Speed -- Clip exhibits issues related to frame rate or shutter speed.
Maybe it had something to do with shutter speed. I think I was using 180-degree, so the shutter speed would have been 1/125. Maybe they don't like 1/125 shutter speed rendered at 29.97? Perhaps I should always shoot at a fixed shutter speed of 1/60 when I intend to render at 29.97. I've never really understood that. ::)
