    Hey guys!

    Anyone know of a good way to reproduce this kind of an effect in AE?

    Is there a filter that would help, or a method in After Effects? I’m still using CS4, but could upgrade if CS5 has a better options for this.

    So for example, I’d like to take a 10 minute video and skip every say, 20 frames, but show the 21st frame for 1/5 of a second, if that makes sense.

    Thanks!

    Jayden

    Time remapping and hold keyframes.

    Thanks very much Brian. I think I had tried that, but I’ll give it another go. Was hoping there may be a better way…

    The example you posted was most likely done by using a bunch of stills, various frames numbers for each still, much like in this production:

    You could go through your footage, export still frames from the shots you need, bring them in AE and exetnd each still for a number of frames to get the desired effect. In the example above I shortened the number of frames for the stills as the timeline progressed.

    Thanks Ted. Great work with your video! Really gets frantic in the last half of the video!

    I think the St George example was shot with stills. I guess I was just after a similar effect and a way I can do it efficiently. I’ve got so much footage!! Will post the end result on here 🙂
