How to Slow down video and add fake Inbetween to make it smooth

Hi! I rendered the 7 second video of my model (simple animation of rotation the model around the center)… and now I whant to make the rotation more slow (to stretch the video from 7 seconds to 14 seconds for example). In Video editing if I add “speed control” I can make video slower by making animation time longer but in this way animation is not smooth anymore. So the question is how can I make some fake inbeetween frames to smooth my slowed animation? or maybe there is another way to smooth the animation I made longer?

I’m not sure this is possible with video. You’d have to render 'tweens. At best, you would end up with each new frame being a lap dissolve between two existing frames and that doesn’t sound like what you’re after.

But if you go back to your pre-rendered animation in the viewport/timeline, you can easily stretch it out, re-render, and Bob’s yer uncle:

In the timeline:

  • select all keys,
  • ‘s’ to scale to the new length,
  • re-render.

Thanx for answer… I have video and video sequence (lot of images). I don’t whant to render from beginning wuth tweens becouse it will be too long… so I thought maybe there is the fast way blender can make the fake frames from sequence maybe…

I think you’re stuck with it. When you consider the amount of time it would take to puzzle out another way, then implement it, re-rendering will probably take far less time.

You can use time remap and it will make all your animations longer or shorter with proper interpolation, Though you have to rerender it

In the video editor??

No its just a render setting in dimensions apparently

Dain App… working perfectly and smooth… from 24 to 90 fps without flicker… if retimer the 90fps to 30fps you get 3x over original duraction.

You might look at this example, I just saw this yesterday. You could use some of his tricks…

The demos from both are impressive. Let’s see what further development brings.

The OP is asking about interpolation between already-rendered frames in the VSE, not how to change the timing pre-render.

What is OP and VSE?

OP = Operators (bpy.ops)
VSE = Video Sequence Editor

I’m not that familiar with VSE as I usually just have one anim at a time, But can’t you ( Under Strip ) use the Rebuild Proxys and Timecode, to change what you need?

I m not familiar with it too… and everything I tried makes time of the video longer but lags appers…I don’t know how to use proxys…

VSE is what Piton812 said
