Help with shot but don’t know what it’s called.
I am trying to do something like a stop motion video for sports, but not stop motion where every frame something moves.
I don’t know what its called that I’m thinking of, but I’ll try to describe.
I have seen photos (say of a volleyball player spiking a ball) where in the photo there are like 6 images of the same person. The first image, the person is on the ground, next to that image the person is about to jump, next they jump, next they are about to hit the ball and next hitting the ball….
What is that called?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Posterize Time is a video effect

Are all the images superimposed (like the old strobe multi-exposures), or just a succession of freeze frames? If it is the latter, Vince’s suggestion of the posterize time filter is probably what you are looking for.

This is what I’m looking for:
I looked up posterized time, but it didn’t look right.
Thanks again!

Note that on this shot the background (sky) is consistant, so it would be relatively easy to key the background out on multiple exposures with a chroma key and relatively simple masks. It would also be possible to do this on a complex background with a locked down camera doing a difference key (although the key quality on a difference key can be a bit iffy).

If it’s what I’m thinking, Carl Larson did an AE tutorial on how to do it. The tutorial is on analyzing motion.
Here’s the link to the tutorial”

he uses the flight of a bird and as it takes off it leaves behind a still image of that current frame. Before you know it, you have a trail of images left behind like the motorcycle picture. Watch it and see if that helps you out.
