How well does twixtor work for slow motion?

I like this comment Terry. To add an RR “work around” – in his first film he didn’t have a blimped camera, so how to work around the camera noise? He’d record the actors right after each shot WILD.

How did he keep it in sync? He didn’t. In editorial he used very short cuts so sync drift wouldn’t develop in a noticeable way.

…Then he was heralded for his innovative fast editorial style…

Okay thanks. When it comes to frame interpolation though, a TV with frame interpolation can add the extra frames really convincingly. I’ve seen TVs that make 24 fps look like 60 fps, and the TVs do not add unwanted side effects to the footage at all, unlike twixtor.

So how is that TVs can add extra frames to 24 fps and it all looks like 60 fps, but when you try to do with twixtor, it causes these side effects?

Plus, it doesn’t matter what is in the background a TV that adds extra frames. You can a movie where several people walk by in the background, and it still makes the extra frames look good. So how they do it so well compared to twixtor?
