In this quick video editing tutorial, I'm gonna show you how to use a simple feature in Premiere Pro that makes a big difference when trying to make regular footage slow motion.

I'm in Premiere Pro with a 1080p sequence that's set to 23.976 as the framerate, and I have a clip here that is also 23.976, and it looks like this it's a clip of me hiking in British Columbia. As you'll notice there is no slow-motion at all. Let's say I wanted to slow down this clip by five times. We'd set it to 20% in the clip speed duration and the result would look like this. It would be very choppy and not very professional to do, and it's often a mistake that new video editors make. This is something you want to try to avoid doing now. In the past to make it look good you'd have to use a third-party plugin like twixtor. However, in recent Premiere Pro updates, they've included a feature called optical flow. If you right-click the clip and then go to time interpolation it's currently set to frame sampling, but below that it says optical flow let's set that and then if we watch our playback and you'll see by setting it to optical flow it does a very good job at turning our footage into slow motion. There is some subtle ghosting but remember, it's creating new frames out of the frames that currently exist so it's pretty impressive that it does this now.

This footage doesn't have a lot of motion to start off with, so if you are working with footage that has a lot of action or a lot of movement it might not do as well of a job. So it's pretty amazing that you can now turn regular footage into slow-motion footage right inside premiere pro without any third-party plugins.
