Is there a correlation between the video frame rate and the ability to create an effective slow-motion effect? Of course there is! In today’s episode, the Movavi Vlog will explain all the nuances in creating slow-motion video. Enjoy!

The process of creating a slow-motion effect is directly linked to the video export process. How do you export videos? What is the best video file format? What is a video codec? The Movavi Vlog can answer all your questions about saving videos in this video tutorial: [ Ссылка ]

“How can the frame rate affect slow-motion?” you may ask. Well, it’s all about the number of frames in each second of your video. Let us tell you more…

Frame rates of 24, 25, and 30 fps are standard for TV and cinema. If the number of frames is lower, the picture flow will be jerky and look like a slideshow. If the number is higher, you can slow the video down to achieve the desirable slow-motion effect!

Why do people love this effect so much? We humans can’t slow down time but, by applying a slow-motion effect to out video, we can slow the action down and see things we might have missed before. In movies, slow motion lets you highlight details that wouldn’t normally be seen in the real world. This approach is also used in suspense scenes to raise the level of anxiety and uncertainty about what might happen. Conversely, when the outcome of a scene is obvious, slow-motion inevitability delays will heighten the drama. Speeds higher than 1000 fps are more often used by scientists for studying transient processes like electrical discharges, explosions, hits, deformations, and so on. Another useful way to apply the slow-mo effect is video stabilization. Slowing a video down lets you get decent video without the camera shake from the original footage.

Here are some key points to consider when creating a slow-motion clip:
Don’t try to set a higher frame rate than the original clip uses. If you shoot your video at 30 fps and then try to export it as 60 fps video, you won’t be able to create great slow-mo because there won’t be any additional new frames - the video editing program will just copy the existing ones.
During slow-downs, make sure the final frame playback rate is no lower than 24 fps, otherwise the picture flow will be jerky and look more like a slideshow.
In most cases, it’s best to choose standard parameters like 24, 25, or 30 fps. 50 or 60 fps are the best options if you want to create a hyperrealistic sequence.
