HI,

I'm using Premiere 6.5 and I've noticed that evrytime I slow down a piece of footage on the timeline it looks choopy/stuttery.

Is it possible to slow down digital video without making it look choppy/stuttery? I think it has something to do with changing the frame rate but i'm not sure.

Basically I'm after the same smoothness of video at normal speed as with around 60% of speed.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards.

Hi Michael,
you can use a method named "frame blending" in Premiere 6.5.

1. From the menu choose Clip/Video options/Frame (or so, I don't have the English version).
2. In the dialog window check "Blend frames".
3. Slow down your clip, let's say to 50%.
4. Render a preview or export a clip to make the effect visible.

The effect:
At 50% speed every second frame will be blended between the previous and the next frame. Usually, the intermediate frames would just be doubled.

This makes motion look less stuttery. It also works with 60% or other values.
