    Hello,is there any way to prevent that Motion Blur issue when we have close keyframes?
    Everytime I need close keyframes, the second last one, always gets a blurish aspect, even if the last one is exactly at the same position.

    Hello. Thank you for your answer.

    I’m trying to keyframe rotation of several elements. But it always happens when trying to make any kind of movement.

    Those are seperated elements, created in photoshop and imported to after effects. In this case there’s forearm, arm and hand, as seperated elements.

    When I have two keyframes, for example in 10th and 11th frame, the second last one always gets that blury aspect, when motion blur is activated. It results in some unwanted transitions. Even if those keyframes have exactly the same properties.

    Change your keyframes(right click on the keyframe and chose Keyframe interpolation) to linear. You have one of the bezier types and AE will automatically add ease in and outs which is adding the movement to your objects.
