In this tutorial, we'll share a quick hack that will make even old-school stop-motion animation with a low frame rate look smooth. The trick? A reframing mode called "Optical flow." Optical flow brings a smart algorithm that helps reconstruct the missing frames in videos with noticeably low frame rates. So, whether you're trying to enhance some old footage or make a stop-motion animation smoother, this is exactly what you need.
And it works like magic! To illustrate our example, we'll be using footage from Robocop (1989) and Star Wars (Episodes IV, V, VI).
