Turn Stop-Motion Footage Into Smooth Video Using AI Frame Interpolation
You can achieve 60 frame-per-second footage with just 15 f.p.s. shots
By Rain Noe - September 14
YouTuber LegoEddy, who creates stop-motion animation shorts with LEGOs, typically shoots at 15 frames per second. That's fifteen set-ups for each second of footage. More fanatical stop-motion animators will go for 60 f.p.s., which is why it can take them years to complete a short that runs for mere minutes.
After learning about video frame interpolation, an AI-based technology that renders and fills in the differences between two shots, LegoEddy wondered if it could be applied to stop-motion animation. In other words, could he shoot 15 f.p.s. and have the AI fill in the other 45 frames, to achieve a 60 f.p.s. look with just 25% of the labor?
The answer, stunningly, is yes:

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.

I don't know much about this but watching the clip you see the astronauts hand disappear for a couple frames as he's about to wave. But what a great technology!
