The number of frames per second is only part of the illusion of motion, though. Objects and people still move between frames. This now-famous shot, for example, has a lot of jerkiness, but it’s for a good reason. Nux is driving into a dust storm, with lightning flashing over his face. If ever there was a reason to adjust your frame rate on purpose to get choppier motion, this is it. For example, in Mad Max: Fury Road, director George Miller would speed up or slow down the frame rate on particular shots in order to make the action more or less choppy, depending on what the scene needed at the time.
Sometimes, a director can manipulate the frame rate on purpose for a certain effect. It looks like it’s repeatedly jumping from one spot to another.
The bottom line doesn’t look like it’s moving at all. The middle line looks like it’s sliding across, but it’s a little jittery. It’s not a perfect representation, but as you can see, the top line flows from one side of the screen to the other smoothly. The image below demonstrates how higher frame rates create smoother motion. The more frames you see per second, the smoother the motion will look. That means for every second of footage, you’re actually seeing 24 still images, each one only slightly different than the last.

To understand why this effect occurs, we need to explain a bit about how movies work. Every film, TV show, YouTube video, or animated GIF you watch is actually a series of still images playing in quick succession. Play enough continuous frames rapidly, and your eye sees them as motion. Most movies ( with rare exceptions) are shot in 24 frames per second (or fps). The more the characters move, the choppier the footage looks. Peter flails his arms and Tony has to grab him to calm him down. This effect gets even more exaggerated in this shot with Tony and Peter Parker. Again, since this is a GIF, it may not be as detailed, but the choppiness of the video is still noticeable. Once this scene starts, the motion starts to look choppier. The motion as Tony turns his head and shouts at Steve looks just a bit less smooth. However, this one takes place just before the big airport action scene. We’ve reduced the film clip to a GIF, so it won’t be as detailed as your Blu-Ray at home, but you can still see that Tony and Steve’s movement as they talk is pretty smooth.Ĭompare this to a later scene where Steve and Tony are arguing yet again. Take these two scenes, both of which show Tony Stark moving his head around as he talks to Steve Rogers. To see what strobing looks like in a movie, we’ll use Captain America: Civil War as an example.
