  • Any way to double frames in an image sequence?

    Hey there!
    So I imported a bunch of stills as an image sequence into Premiere, no problem. But now, the client wants the sequence to happen a bit slower (it’s a time lapse). Is there a way to tell the image sequence to show each still twice instead of once? Or, effectively, each still for a longer period of time?

    When I adjust the frame rate, to say, 12.5 (from 23.97), it doesn’t change the duration of the sequence, or the speed.

    What I did, since I couldn’t figure this out, is literally just go into “speed/duration” and chose 50%. This certainly did the trick, but I’m wondering, is this degrading the quality at all? Or is it literally doing what I’m wanting albeit in an indirect way?

    Of course, I could go all manual and import each image onto my sequence blah blah…but not going there.

    Any thoughts?

    That’s pretty much doing what you want. You might choose “frame blending” as your interpolation method if you want the movement to be a little bit smoother.

    Cool cool. Yeah it was actually pretty smooth. So it seems to work pretty well. I just didn’t if there was another way that more “directly” controlling what the frames were doing. Thanks!
